I just completed a flight from KSBN to KBHB in Milton's Commander.I posted about this once before but a solution still escapes me. Using FS Meteo, the prevailing winds provided a generally westerly flow, 250 degrees at 40 to 50 knots. The problem is that as I approached station boundaries, I experienced a wind shear that just about ripped the wings off. Altitude variances of about 700 feet, airspeed changes from 80 knts to 230 knts, heading swings in excess of seventy knots...While it didn't happen this flight, in prior flights, it terminated abruptly with 'aircraft overstressed'.FSUIPC is set to smooth wind changes 1 knot/1 degree every 240 seconds but it didn't have any effect at all.Is there a solution for this? Would Active Sky solve this or is it inherent to Flight Sim? Are there any solutions available.BobL

Bob, while I can't help you with the wx problem, I can send you a new Commander. :-)Look for a new AC500 soon.Milton

Oh , great ... The Shrike...I took my AMEL training in that airplane. There's a soft spot in my heart for that aircraft...BobL

Well, hmmmm, not exactly. I mean the AC500 economy utility aircraft, not the sleek AC500S. :-)Actually Paul Saunders is doing that and you will love it.Paul okay'ed me to show a couple of Shrike pix ... ... and you can see the AC500 in progress website here: http://www.flightsimonline.com/ac500/All textures by Andr

Those are super...I can not wait !!!!Are you receiving suggestions for paint???How about a factory livery with a white base, trim color of dark green. Accent Color light green. Registration...N900DT???Sorry, I don't have a picture. It's been w-a-a-a-a-y too many years.You guys are doing great. Keep up the great work.BobL

There will be 2 paint schemes for the Shrike per Paul. But I'm sure if we all plead with Andr

Hi Milton,The AC500 looks great, as all the others are ;), hows the Howard coming on?, any rough idea of a release?.CheersDan.
