August 11, 200916 yr Hi Guys,I've had the old PSS Avro RAF Vulcan sitting on a CD in my stack for many years and at last I decided to install it in my FS9. Everything works as it should, except one thing. I cannot get the gear to retract in external view.The gear lights on the panel show the gear as being retracted or extended correctly and the keyboard "G" button works as it should for all my other aircraft, except this one. The gear retract/extend sounds are not played either. I even tried to place a standard gear lever gauge on the panel in order to see if that would work but it didn't.Is this a problem in the .mdl file and therefore something I cannot correct ?Does anyone have a solution ?Thanks in advance.Hans

August 12, 200916 yr Author Thanks Scoob,According to the forum it turned out to be an electrical problem which could be solved by changing the Vulcan to a Cessna, turning on the battery, the aviaonics and by starting the engine. Then change back to the Vulcan, cut the four fuel supplies, wait for the engines to stop completely and then (re-)save the (original) Vulcan flight. A bit primitive for an otherwise well made payware aircraft but it does work.Thanks again.Hans

I suppose the RAF retired the Vulcan from active service cause they had no more Cessna available :)Regards.Gus.
