Manfred Jahn C-47 Dakota Yoke Position

Featured Replies

Is there a way to remove or lower the yoke in the Manfred Jahn C-47 Dakota in order to see the instruments behind it?  I can lower the yoke in the C-47 with the more modern panel, but can't seem to find a similar click spot (if there is one) in the Dakota.

Thx,

Al

To close the loop on this, I found the little red square on the left side of the panel below the picture of  Marilyn Monroe that you click on to hide or return the yoke. It's even so labeled! I was expecting the click spot to be somewhere on the yoke itself like in their DC3 with the more modern panel. Or maybe Marilyn distracted me.  😉

On no account should anyone read the manual that is included in the download and in particular, page 10 which would ruin the opportunity of finding features like this by accident.🙂

I would agree with you but the only info I have in the Douglas_C-47_PBR folder in Prepare3D v4 Add-ons is a DOC folder with a Readme on how to install the Dakota. I don't see a manual.  It has been months since I got this aircraft and I don't seem to have the original zip file anymore, so will try re-downloading it and look for the manual.

Thx for the info,

Al

Just re-downloaded the Douglas_C47_P3D_45.zip file from Sim-Outhouse and still don't see a manual. Where do I find a manual?

Thx,

I don't find one either, ark. There might be one that could have been installed somewhere else in an earlier version.

Thanks for the info. Good to know I'm not having another senior moment!  🙂

It's in Douglas_C-47_V3.12_Beta.zip,  Douglas_C-47_Beta_V3.14.zip and FSX/FSX-SE/P3D Douglas C-47R Skytrain V3.14 Beta.zip. All of these can be found at SOH, with the usual difficulty of their impenetrable "seach" system. Most other/later downloads are updates and do not contain the full set of files.

I have put a copy of the manual in Dropbox for you, here is the link

At SOH the donwload is described as "Complete standalone package...", so don't know why they wouldn't include the manual. In any case, downloaded the manual from your Dropbox link -- thanks.
