FYI I went back and redownloaded P149 again. To my suprise radio power work and fuel pump has a sound! The file is the same by obviously some improvement were made

should be 2.0 now. Still has the fine tuning issue on the radio for odd tower and ground frequencies like at Liverpool Airport. You can't dialin to either Frequency.

Yes, there was a quick update to the fuel pump (sound) and a tweak to the radios.  For some reason he decided to keep the version number at 2.0 and not increment it.

I don't see on the 2checkout site where to redownload the plane nor any updates.  I purchased via ATS site and now regret it. I've contacted support so I can get a download link and my license key again. IMHO, the 2checkout site is not very user friendly. What's the point of the multiple security measures if it just to see you purchase information only? No download link or Licence key information.

Edit: Andrey got me straighten out  😁

I bought from AT as well. I received an E-Mail with the key and the download link. I re-downloaded the file and installed it again. It had remembered the key.

THAT IS WHY I enthusiastically support this developer.  He is responsive and decent.  He also produces my very favorite FS aeroplane- the An-2 (which will arrive one day, to me smiling).

For those scratching their heads re. the ILS receiver- The GS is only the two triangles above and below the O as deviation indicator. There is no finger. The yellow flag should disappear of it is active.

Again, a piece of 50's flying- read the chart- it will assist you to track the GS (knowing your IAS and looking for the corresponding VS).

HTH- C

after reinstallation this morning everything work perfectly.  Flew around Cairo this morning and can change frequencies and squawk on the assigned XPonders easily while flying. Looks like fine tuning has been fixed.   The only thing left I see is the sound for touch downs on landings. 😍

So I have an odd problem. Every time I fly P149! Every time after fly P149 next flight ATC voice disappear next flight. I can hear  my pilot voice but not ATC! First I thought it was coincidence, but now it happened several times in a raw. I wonder if ATS set something off and sim remembers it? Does anyone else have this problem?

P.S. I cured by restarting PC and then loading default Cessna

The only time I had this SD was when I forgot to turn the volume up on the radio - then I heard them.  I think you told me about that one actually.  

Edit:  Can't find the post now, but my volume was definitely off to start with.  Once I moved the volume knob up a bit, I heard them straight away. 

Some kind soul told me about it.  Never had to change the volume before in any other aircraft - how realistic is that!

4. The mixture seems like it is off or on. This is a major issue for me. You can lean, and nothing happens at all until the engine dies. Same with Carb heat, doesn't have an RPM drop at all. 

In case you stumbled over this. This specific engine has an automix functionality. No mixture procedure required.

Thanks!  What is the purpose of the mixture control knob then?  Is it just to pull it all the way out to cut the engine?  As I suspect there are other ways to do that (mags off etc.).

[cavaricooper 2,611]

Yes, but Mixture is traditionally used.... there’s also a Fuel Cut-Off in this aircraft that does the job. Mags are never the primary cut, secondary.

It used to be a mixture in older versions, but now it us just ON/OFF fuel supply.
