F-100

No matter what I do, I can't get the pitot tube to lower to it's proper position, can't get rid of all the safety pins. and can't get rid of the boarding ladder. Also can't get rid of the wheel chocks.

Have you tried to read the manual? As well, this isn't the F-100 supper area...

There is no manual to read in the f-100 program. Everything on that airplane should be selectable from the cockpit. :)

I have located a MILVIZ aircraft manual on the internet. My program has none of the capabilities that are portrayed in this manual. It would be nice if it did. :)

I have uninstalled the F-100 and re-installed the airplane using my backup disk. This was successful and the airplane is up and running again. The drag chute and the speed brake don't work making for interesting approaches and landings. :) Everything mentioned in the manual works now except the drag chute and speed brake.

Did you bind a key for the chute in the MVAMS? Do you have a speedbrake key bind via FSX / P3D Controls or FSUIPC?

The key for the drag chute is supposed to be F2 but it doesn't work. The key for the speed brake is /. It works on other aircraft but not on the F-100. don't know why. :roll:

Does the dragchute at least come out of the aircraft when you hit F2?

F2 is default for Reverse Thrust (turboprops/jets). I'm thinking there's a conflict right there

No____ the drag chute does not deploy. I just tried it again flying out of FRG on Long Island. Neither one worked. :roll:

I just made a flight out of ISP on Long Island in a King Air turbo prop. Using F2, the props would reverse and stay in reverse while parked but would not stay in reverse on landing. Had to use hard breaking. :roll: Don't know what is going on there. :roll:

I'll be honest, your attempts to install our aircraft and non-compliance with my questions to try and pinpoint the problem has left me a bit confused. Do you have Skype? I think I need to do a one on one session with you to get things fixed.
