The livery must have a Short Field Performance selected in the settings

It does... Because the real airplane also has the SFP-package ;-) so no issues there.(My livery, that's how I know :-))

Short Field has that feature to help shorten the stopping distance! :(

In pmdg the spoilers are always standing up at 60 ° and on the same height.Normaly there are still a few degrees different between the spoilers.In real it is just above a specific speed, when the speed drops ,the spoilers are going back to there normal mode.in pmdg this isn't the case.is there something you can do about it?

That is definitely the SFP. As to spoiler logic I remember reading a thread about limitations on function due to FSX not supporting "real life" spoiler modes. PMDG got it as real as it gets within the limits of FSX.

Hello Thijs,I just replied to your email.The ini file that comes with my JAF repaints that you installed contains the correct customer options for that particular registration (within the limits of what PMDG simulated).As mentioned by the others the spoiler behavior you see is a consequence of the SFP option.

Nothing you can do about it. I guess these are FSX limitations they could not overcome.

?? Euh... :Shame On You:It isn't actually... It's mine :Whistle:LOLRegards,Sylvain

I'd forgotten you did the -800 too Sylvain. Anyway, my latest update has all the correct options, so it would be hard to tell just from seeing a winglet ;-)

Yeah, I was about to say:"...and you can tell this by looking at the wing alone?"

If it wouldn't have been JetairFly, nope ;-) I had forgotten about Sylvain's livery though.Aside from Sylvains renditions of OO-JBG and OO-JAD, and my rendition of OO-JAD, I don't think anybody did a JAF -800, or at least not with a public release.

LOL guys!I wouldn't have known this at all if I hadn't just read the email the OP had sent to me a few days ago explaining that he had discovered this issue after installing my repaints... :LMAO:Regards,Sylvain

Well, the reason has been explained, so anything we say is just water under the bridge.Sorry for forgetting about you wonderful work Sylle ;-)
