April 10, 20233 yr I think it's best large, float, bush plane out there. I like everything about it. Manual is here. There's good short section on how to handle tail draggers on the ground, takeoffs, etc. https://bigradials.com/pages/documentation Meanwhile back in Orcas Island, it's time for Coors. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
April 11, 20233 yr Looks instructing but somewhat poor choice of avionics. I'd rather see a modern steam gauge version with GNS430 than silly G3X in sun shield like cover.

April 11, 20233 yr There is a tablet overhead. It can be made to disappear (thankfully). And there is a CRT-TV (old school, late 1940's-early 1950s.). We have lots of old tube radios from the 30's to 50's in our house and they are all restored and working. The one here looks a lot like an early model from the late 1940's, almost a dead ringer. Of course, the CRT-TV is only vintage in looks because the Combined Remote Territory Technical Visualizer has a touch screen, LOL. But the ambience of the thing is very endearing to me, I love it. ! 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

April 11, 20233 yr Author You can always flip down the modern GPS and dock the CRT green screen if you prefer a more modern take. You are currently stuck with WWII surplus Olive Drab for the cockpit though.

April 12, 20233 yr I am a big fan of the Norseman and plan to pick this up soon. I am a bit perplexed that is does not come with a ski version since the Norseman practically lived on ski's back in the day. Its not a complex addition to the model. Just replace the wheels with the ski's. Hopefully it comes in a future update. Otherwise its a fairly complete model of the Norseman.
April 13, 20233 yr To fix the radios, in systems.cfg, set COM1 and NAV1 to be off BUS 2 (avionics) change runway.flt and apron.flt to read circuit.27=True,1.00 circuit.28=True,1.00 will now power the COM1 and NAV1 radios 🙂 ...
