Page 1 of this thread. The DL's have a designation for FSX/P3Dv3, and one for P3Dv4 (64 bit version).
Great plane, at least in FSX:SE :D

Enjoy it!

No Tackpack, is it a requirement?

This is a minor thing regarding livery, not a bug report.

The Canadian Air Force is slowly doing minor livery changes to their 18s.

They're removing the 'Canadian Forces' and flag from behind the wings, and adding RCAF - ARC beside the roundel under the cockpit, like how it is on the 150 Display team livery you have already, only in low viability colours.

I have no idea if you're planning on touching up any existing liveries, but I thought I should bring it up anyways.

Hey Tuskin,

Welcome to the forums.  The guys over at Groom Lake Simulations do most of our textures.  I'd recommend sending your request over there.

No not a requirement to fly but it is to fight.  Plus there are a number of scripts that run based on whether or not TACPACK is active or not.  Just helps me to narrow down where problems might lie. 

Thanks.

Please disregard my earlier e-mail regarding the rudder and elevator flutter. I seem to be having issues with myX-56.

Regards,
Reggie

Roger that, also there is a thread about the HUD refresh rate that seemed to be pretty accurate to my issue, but I tried what the instructions said, but I the GDI button is not there.

- Go to the Top page, by pressing "MENU" from any page

- Select "BIT" (Built-in-Test, it's a key on the top)

- Select "GDI+ (on the low-right) Does not exist on my version.

That's for the F/A-18A Hornet that comes default with FSX Acceleration and FSX Steam Edition. Does not apply to the FSXBA F/A-18C Hornet

Well, I thought I had fixed the flutter problem but apparently not. If has to do with version 18.4. When I revert back to version 18.3, I don't have the flutter. I wish I could send you a video of the problem. Any advice appreciated.

Thank you,
Reggie

Can you provide the conditions of when you observe the flutter?

Greetings Mr. Hendrix,

The conditions occur anytime I fly this version of the aircraft. My setup is as follows:

AMD 4100FX  3.4 Mhz
8Gb RAM
GTX 1050Ti  4Gb
P3Dv4.3
Active Sky for P3dv4
Orbx Global, Vector, Open LC North America, HD Trees, Lights

Things I have tried:
Flying with and without ActiveSky active
Deleted my .Cfg file and letting P3D build a new one
Using the 18.3 airfile in place of 18.4
Various weapons loads to weigh down and settle the aircraft

Things I have noticed:
Since installing this aircraft, whichever aircraft I choose at the start of my sim session, it steers to the right when I accelerate until I correct with opposite rudder one time. Then all is well.  Upon aircraft startup, I notice the aircraft bobbing up and down slightly, but there is no flutter. The flutter starts when the aircraft leaves the ground.
As the pilot's head is connected to the control surfaces, his head twists and turns like a wild man during the flutter.
These issues do not occur with Version 18.3

Thank you Sir,
Reggie
