Another update for the Beaver. Animations and manipulators are progressing nicely without any problems so far, and I replaced the digital display radios with analog radios. That looks so much better in the Beaver. So, here you go...

5 Days until I start development again.

Hi there, Since releasing version 0.1 of the J32 checklist clist earlier in the week I have put many hours into getting to what is currently build 0.7, which has dataref integration for about 15+ checklists. What's my point? I have been in and out of that plane and throwing switches countless times doing testing and debugging of the various checklists. I've added "Control Locks Down/Up" in the relevant places to make sure that you don't get caught out with this, and there's even a reminder to switch planes before exiting X-Plane so that you don't lose your axis between XP sessions. Build 0.7 is going through some beta testing this weekend by a very generous RW ex-J32 pilot who has agreed to give his opinion on how close to reality the flows are and any suggestions for changes /errors etc - after which I expect to release it to the public on the X-Pilot library very soon. It works great, speeds up your operations and stops you making a silly mistake causing an engine burnout or other vital step - and it stops you losing your axis if you follow the steps correctly. (I've done all of the above for sure!) I am not saying that people haven't been having some strange issues, but I can say that my axis / prop woes are now a thing of the past and I'm getting a lot of satisfaction out of "doing it right" in the flows. If anyone would care for a look at 0.7 as it stands now please let me know, it's quite usable - BUT: you'll need to use XP32bit as the Checklister plugin is still only 32bit - but at the moment my system using 10.20b11 shows very little to no difference in my settings between the two versions. At some point I will also record a video of this in use for YouTube for those that would "look" but won't "touch" - but I'll wait to see the feedback from the RW pilot first in case it's better to do a video on 0.8 - but maybe 0.7 will cut it. (Update: I've bought the registered version of FRAPS now so I am ready to go when build 0.8 is done.) Thanks very much. Kind regards, James

I'm surprised a 2nd hand HP computer from a school would experience problems.

JS32 all over Turkey last night. One of these days I'll manage to get some traction and head towards home (NA).

Speaking of choppers did you guys see t hat video of a guy who got the RC aircraft out of the tree? That was some damn good flying. Case you didnt see it \
