Wingview #3 engine missing on CS C-130
#3 engine is missing on mine too so I expect Captain Sim left it out to save some processing power.:-) I feel slightly cheeted - how much does one of those engines cost?Jon

Important questions regarding the CS HERCULES.
To Jack Ford, I did reply to your email re. this thread but both times AoL bounced it.In response to your query:-Make sure you have all the C-130 folders and files under the following folders (it makes it easier to find them if you sort each folder by descending date, then the C-130 files should be at the top):-Flight Simulator 9/GaugesFlight Simulator 9/EffectsFlight Simulator 9/Captain_SimFlight Simulator 9/Aircraft/Legendary_C-130And that is it, a total of 944 files in 603732 kB.Jon

Important questions regarding the CS HERCULES.
If it helps, I downloaded and installed onto my internet enabled laptop.Then winzipped all the necessary C-130 files (with the full path).Copied the zip file to a cd.Placed the cd in my flight sim PC and copied all files using the path option and it all worked well.I know this scenario is not identical to yours but you should be able to do what you want.This C-130 is very good. And I have just managed a cold start, which some have had trouble with. There are threads which explain how to do this.Cheers,Jon

Contrails and Turboprops
Theoretically a contrail can be produced by any aircraft with an engine. The conditions for a contrail to be produced are relient on the ambient temperature and humidity of the air and the temperature and humidity of the exhaust from the engine.The question of whether a contrail will be produced can be found using a tephigram which shows a temperature, pressure, humidity profile of the atmosphere.During WWII these diagrams were used to determine the height above which a contrail would be produced, thus making the detection of an aircraft easy. The pilots were given the height below which they should fly in order to avoid producing a contrail. This height was determined using the MINTRA line on the tephigram, which can still be found on current tephigrams used by the UK Met Office.Regards,Jon
