"And I have no idea why being a beta tester has any relevance at all." It appeared to me that you had assumed and defended some of Carenado's areas of expertise. Beta testers are supposed to detect any problems before the final product was released. Those things that might have got past them could affront their ego. "...why not take the half hour it would take to verify it and then show us - and Carenado - that it is an error?"I did! I'm not sure if Carenado understood (being that English is their second language) what I was saying especially if they were afraid to open the attached screen shot jpeg.You, apparently don't even want to acknowledge any texture problem, so it hasn't risen to a level of concern for you, I guess in this aspect, where you have proclaimed Carenado's level of detail, you have settled for this end result.I gave up because I didn't want to get into argument about what I expect with experts on this forum.

My experience is that the carenado guys mostly lurk on the flightsim.com board. I know I have been contacted by them in the past when I posted there and had asked a question on one of their planes previously. Eric

>Edit: Looked at it again, the modeling is correct, but the>flap texture does not go far enough over toward the cabin. I don't even see the texture problem, and I think I've stared at this for 15 minutes now! Even went into the VC and sat in the second row of seats to look at flap movement. Actually, I think the detail is very impressive. So..................where is this problem, again?L.Adamsonedit: Are we looking at the port side ribbing/flutting (actually, there is another word for it, I think, but it doesn't come to mind) detail, that doesn't extend to the edge of the flap, so that the look matches the starboard side?

Is it a problem, or intentional? I don't know, but the texture on the left wing is identical to that on the right wing, even though the flaps are different.I don't know what the top of a C206 looks like so don't know whether it is correct or not, but it definate doesn't match the port flap... ;-)Cheers,Ian P.

>think the detail is very impressive. >>So..................where is this problem, again?>>L.AdamsonI don't think there is. I agree.For goodness sakes, this may be a bit silly to scrutinize details like this when FS is far from being accurate within scenrey areas, buildings, etc.An incredibly detailed aircraft that is 'heads and tails' above most everything else within our virtual flying enviroment as a whole.

See my edit, regarding the ribbing/flutting detail, or what ever the word for it is....

Look just in front of the left arrow..then look just in front of the right arrow. I saw the glitch immediately upon viewing the image.

Two screen shots for Mr. Adamson. Identify the outline of flap panels in the up position. Does the 2nd screen shot with the panels down show what you expected to see?

Yes, it's what I expect to see. The "stamped ribbing" portions are symetrical for looks when the flaps are up. That is why there is a few inches of a flat non stamped portion on the "longer" port flap. This is all assumption on my part. But it makes perfectly good sense. And since I know many good tricks for balancing out a missed -rigged airplane, it would be awful easy to design balance into a slightly shorter flap section, as on the starboard side. Even a slightly different thickness in the trailing edge, can make an offset.L.Adamson

Put it this way. It is only this paint scheme that does this, all the rest are correct. Compare the paint scheme we are speaking of to the other paint schemes its somewhat different. For me its no big deal. Heck Im just surprised anyone even noticed it, but a good eye for those that did.Scott
