Hi Emmanuel,really great work. I took it either for a flight with FlightGear OSG CVS and FlightGear PLIB CVS. It works great in FG PLIB but I had some problems (crashes) under FG OSG version. OSG version is still under development and therefore you should know about it but I think it is *not* your fault.I made an announcement on the German FlightGear Forumhttp://www.flight-gear.de/smf/index.php/to...02.html#msg1502and hope some other people will recognize that we have this new aircraft now available.All the best to your work.Merci beaucoup!RegardsGeorg EDDWBTW:please have a look at the prop-disks of the left side, there are some transparency issues. Right side is ok!

Hello, And thank you very much for the advertisement on the German forum. I would not have dared me even. For the discs, I know it, but I do not manage to correct that. With OSG version of FS which I have all that well and I then do not have a problem of transparency I concentrate on the dashboard;)it seems that that is a history of sorting in the objects or the facets, but my English is really bad and I very did not understand.Still thank you for your support by hoping that H4 succeeds in convincing some people to be passed under FlightGear;)Thank you with you;) Emmanuel

Can you recommend a starting location? Is there an ICAO identifier for a seaplane port, or should I use latitude/longitude instead?

I used:--lat=37.63--lon=-122.27for San Francisco Bay. Very nice airplane! The view from the cockpit is impressive, and the liquor cabinet (?) is perfect. Hughes probably also kept several boxes of tissues near by :)I noticed it needs a lot of rudder to fight the torque. I've seen this on other JSBSim multi-engine props, even if the propellers are counter-rotating. You might be able to cancel this with another yaw force that uses engine thrust as an input.Is there a way to reverse the engines? It takes several miles to stop. This might be due to too much rpm needed to idle the big engines. Very nice! Thanks :)
