MOLLY II her Flashy sister & her Pet will most likely be released on Monday give or take a few days.

The problem is the flight model needs approximately (depending on pilot) 4500+ft of runway to take off at 65,000lbs MTOW.  It needs a bit more to clear a 50ft obstacle. 

The CFS3 stock 3-runway bases 2000 meter default runway are OK as long as there is not much in the way of trees & hills at the end of them.   The majority do have high obstructions which create problems.

I remember one of the guys built a runway extension that leveled the terrain and add more length to the tarmac. Thing is I can't remember who did it or where its uploaded.

I would like to include this extra in the package along with a list of 3-runway bases.

Does anyone know of - who - whatever about this extension?

Any joy finding your runway extension Bear ? I fished around myself for such a thing after having problems trying to lift a fully laden Halifax off the ground. I'd like to get my hands on the over-zealous gardener who likes to plant trees at the end of runways....Perhaps he's working for the other side!

Cant wait for the new B-17. Looks very peachy going by the screenshot over at Av history. Love the little friend too.

One of the guys made one up for us & it will be included in the weapons pack as an optional install.  We most likely will combine it with the hanger fix so that the big planes don't hit the hangers & blow up when you start the game.

...

EDIT: We combined the ruway extension & hanger fix. It will be part of our download package.
