How long does it take Carenado to send a link to your e-mail? I bought the cessna this pm but have not recieved the e-mail yet. I thought it would be instantaneous.Don

The download link i got came through in an email immediately, and there was also a link included on the purchase transaction confirmation.

It's been 3 hours and I have NOT recieved anything.Don

>>P.S. L.Adamson tell me this, is it better to pull out the prop>lever at cruise to get more speed in level flight and push the>lever in during landing at takeoff??? Just wondering as to>the proper use of this lever since it's not for feathering...>Thats about it. You should be able to find performance charts for manifold pressure (throttle) versus rpm (prop) settings. As to landing, you push it all the way in during short final, or when you want to make high approaches, that come down like a fast elevator.L.Adamson

If you are using an email such as hotmail or yahoo, make sure your spam filters are off. They could easily pick up some commercial email as spam, and I have lost emails from legitimate business contacts due to their filters at times.-John

Thanks L.Adamson... :-)

As John said, check your settings. I got my link right away, so something is wrong. If you did E-mail Carenado, they may take a day or two to get back to you, but they will. Best regards, Jeff

Control-Z will work for Altitude Hold, as it does on the default airplanes.

Think of the prop lever as more of RPM governer. The prop will attempt to hold whatever RPM you set. If it cannot, you will lug the engine down just like the gears on a car. When fully forward you lock out the governor. What I was taught was on climbout to set the manifold pressure to 24 inches and then to slowly pull back on the prop until you felt the rpms change. Then you left it there till setting cruise. Fully forward on short final and setting it on the climbout prevented the prop from being in "low gear" and making a lot of noise for folks on the ground. On landing pushing the knob in allows the engine to get max RPMS and is one less thing you have to do on a go around or missed approach.Another trick taught to me by an experienced RG pilot but which does not work as well in the sim, is to pull back on the RPMS to around 2000 to 1800 with the same manifold pressure to slow down the bird for an instrument approach.I did four airports and a number of landings, had no trouble with floating at all.
