Hi!

Is "Landing at LSZA" now your official submission to the SOTM, or did you unintentionally just mix up two different topics?

Ciao,

Adrian

As usual the lights of the airport are almost invisible and we are only 3 nm with a 4 ° slope ... It would be time to change the view of the airport lights and make them look similar to what they are in reality.


I'm not accepting that screenshot while that comment is there. This is about screenshots - not people's agendas.

I take offence in "blindly". Would you care to enlighten us about how to do it right then? Or, prefeably, add documentation, or point to it should it exist already?

:shock:

I am surprised, I did not think of displeasing someone in the forum, next time I will be careful not to enter more extensive information which, besides saying where the image was made, explains the problems that have occurred to obtain that image.

I'll get to this eventually - sorry for the delay, but I think free time is at an all time low right now. I'll try and do this tonight or tomorrow.

Maybe you should realize I used the word "animate". However right your calculations may be (and probably are, I don't doubt your work), the animation has to be correct. I can garrentee no airplane would look like that in flight. Look at how much upwards lift is lost! Even in "rough" whether this is a bit silly.

Also why are you assuming he is using your wingflexer? Somewhere I saw some 787s with totally different wingflex ages ago when someone asked me to fix a bug with the gear.

I don't know - to me it seems like you just want to argue, which I have no interest in doing!

Bye,
Josh
