Thank You, Gerax, flaps all work now on Hornet, Viper and Harrier
The F-105 remains problematic as before, so it must be a different issue,
( the flaps for F-105 work fine, but the drag / lift is incorrect and out of control)
I can use Combat flap for takeoff and landing, seems to work with practice.
As you wish, I will continue testing with this fix of yours, and report anything strange
or different if it is obvious to me.
I cannot test it online until tomorrow.
Did I use the correct Westerns patch ? (See post above)
Thanks again, I really appreciate your help, and I wish I knew how you figured this out !
Further Testing of F-18 etc. :
1. Before this fix, Air to Air missiles were loaded even if "None" was selected in loadout,
now, this is fixed and aircraft will fly "clean".
2. Noticeable Pitch Down when thrust is applied suddenly. You can observe this with F-18 on the ground,
also seen before any fix was done, with F-16 as well, F-16 being worse for pitching down as thrust is applied.
(dangerous when adding power at low level approach) - conversely, when power is cut, the nose rises.
3. Landing the F-18 "clean" with 50% fuel, approach should be about 120kts, but anything under about 175kts
and it gets ugly, with pitch/roll stability problems, stall warnings etc., so the behaviour seems similar to what it
was before the flap animation was fixed. I do not understand this - do I still have problems?
4. F-16 flies similar high approach speed but much more controllable in landing.
5. Level Stab works on F-18, but no longer works on Mig-21 or Farmer C,
F-4 has heading hold and Alt. hold now instead of Level Stab., is this normal?
6. Cockpit viewpoint in Mig-21 seems fixed, now I can see the runway on approach.
