PLEASE - don't use FSedit.

It has a well known history for screwing up air files it's supposed to be fixing.

No... Can't be!
An "Official" Microsoft SDK with bugs?
Say it ain't so!!!
I'm being sarcastic. That's why I asked for an INFORMED opinion.

I'm running Win98SE, not XP.
I don't suppose that makes a difference, does it?

Not even slightly.

Btw - don;t get confused here. I'm referring to the utility itself - not the SDK.

Perhaps you'll be able to fix the darn thing with that.. Grin

Fisharno's f16 modified airfile and Cfg file works really great! It definately addressed the Airbrakes issue. It also gives you a co-pilot veiw in the Virtual Cockpit! Which I find as a cool option to closely observe AI aircraft like your inspecting them as you fly close by them! It is a strange but interesting veiw.

The only down side which isn't a really big deal is the plane will pick up speed on it's own when the emergency brakes (CTRL+.) is not engaged. But that is not a really big issue! infact i think that is what will happen if the engine is running and you take your foot off the brakes! Shocked

!

This is a real cool modification, Thanks Fisharno!

Its only in your mind, strong mind, strong soul and nobody can take that from you!

Glad to help, Mav! Cheesy

The rear seat view isn't my doing. It's probably from the original file written by the aircraft author. We thank him, though!
Honestly, I never knew it would do that! Roll Eyes

Learned something new!

And yes, with out the Parking Brake set, the aircraft will roll at idle. That's common with most hi performance jets.

I'm happy that helped!
Enjoy.

??? Now that you mention that fisharno, I am wondering if the virtual cockpit had 2 veiws (pilot and co-pilot) all along and I never knew. I must have pushed something that switched them around. Roll Eyes

Still like the veiw though Grin

! it almost feels too real!
