Hi guys,

need some help please. first thing is that i have installed this pucka plane and had a quick fly - looks good to me! BUT for some reason on the opening page (i.e the one with all the menu's) i now get and exploding B-17!!! can anyone tell me why?? i have also noticed that the B-17 has dive brakes??? i didnt know that they were used as dive bombers. one last thing (and it noted in another post) where would i find the date that the B-17 entered service so i can include it in my campaigns.

hope someone can help.

The B-17 you have has a tail wheel problem, it is only a beta version and a new one was meant to come out, I haven't seen it though, as long as you keep it it will keep on exploading

The B17 is a big plane and some airbases arn't big enough to handle it properly. I believe there is a list of suitable airbases for the B17 included with the pack. At these places the aircraft will not blow up. Taking off is fine. Just let the fat lady pick up speed. Wink

There are modified facility files at sim-outhouse to keep the big planes fron colliding with hangars in the UI screen.
