Finally, just for fun, I would like to present a challenge. Fly from Milford Sound (NZMF) to the nearby T004 with the A2A P-40 Accusim and FTZ NZ without crashing the plane on landing. I've tried three times and crashed each of them. I think it might be possible (barely), but unbelievably hard. No margin for error at all. So... Did you make or break it?

Finally I made the landing from NZMF to T004 with the P-40. Was just a matter of coming in high enough and not try to line up too early to give yourself some room to maneuver. I did mow down the people standing at the end of the runway, but then again... That's what you get from standing on runway... :) Btw Orbx, why not make the people on PeopleFlow react on threats - like run out of the way screaming in horror... :D

Very nice set. Just got the P40 yesterday. One flight, crashed and burned as I could not get the gear up.

Read the manual and still can't get the thing to go up. Go read it again I guess.

To get started, SHIFT+3 and set the Auto Hydraulics on. When you get more comfortable, use the manual hydraulics pump button on top of stick. Once you got hydraulics, use the two red levers on your left side (8-9 o'clock low) to extract/retract flaps/gear.

Thanks. That should work. I'll map the Hydraulics pump with their utility then.
