May 19, 200422 yr Hi Bill & Team !Great news with the official release announcement and preview shots. Come 1st June I'll be waiting in line to order the CDs !I know that you normally produce your manual as an HTML. Are there any plans to produce a printable edition (say in Word or PDF ?) If not, would you be interested in one ? For your previous releases I've transcribed the manual and printed it out as it make reference much easier. Happy to help out if you want - copies of the original R4D and B-25 printable versions available if you need to check the quality.Best wishes,Alastair
May 20, 200422 yr Commercial Member Hi Alastair,Glad you like it. :-) Yes, there will indeed be a printable PDF version, just as there is for BT. If you did not know that, here's where you can get it: http://www.fssupport.com/maam_sim/BT_manual.pdfHowever, we encourage people to use the html version as the primary, as a very important part of the content will be the imbedded instructional videos. Unprintable, I'm afraid. ;-)Thanks for the offer.Bill Rambow MAAM-SIM - Rambow, Visser, Banting, Young, Womack, and Sodjahttp://www.fssupport.com/maam_sim/maamsim_logo.gif Bill Rambow MAAM-SIM www.maam.org
May 20, 200422 yr Author Hi Bill,Thanks for that ! In fact I'd got my wires a little crossed, and was aware of (and have) the PDF manual for "Briefing Time". However, at least printing on A4 sheets (as opposed to US Letter) the manual ends up a little segmented title-wise, so I reduced it slightly in font/image size and ended up with a manual that was 89 pages long rather than 113. This was then colour-photocopied at a local print shop (cheaper than printing it myself) and I wire-bound it at work. Its still the best manual in my collection - until the R4D maybe !The videos are also great. My favourite is the engine run-up test (on the second CD I think) - what a din ! How anyone survived flying it without going stone deaf is beyond me !Cheers,Alastair
