This is a great aircraft. I believe that there is only one flying in the world today??

I have seen this aircraft in a magazine and the restoration is superb.

So. I finally got P3Dv2 working a couple of hours ago and immediately discovered that none of my airfields work. The good news is I know why. The bad news is that fixing it will be an absolute nightmare of hand XML editing. So as I was nattering to both Lewis and stiz at the time, I sought and received permission to put the Anson into it. It was, I thought, the perfect test for P3D v2's dynamic shadowing...

...I was right. :mrgreen:

You really need a video rather than stills to see how the shadows cast by this greenhouse move around and the model is possibly a little too shiny in the new rendering engine, but look at the shadows in the first two screenshots here.

Please note that I have changed nothing but joystick settings in the sim, so what it looks like there is how my rig draws it with the settings it chose for me. The ground textures look horrible in the aerial images there. I'm not sure why, because they look fine when flying over them.

Cheers,

Which, in part, was the Anson's downfall. There were simply so many Anson Is that nobody thought to actually save any from the scrap merchants. There are airframes in museums that you can count on one hand. One strange person in New Zealand has recently returned a single example to the air. The Avro XIX (Anson X) is still around in far greater numbers, but that served until well after the war in airline and military service, so they actually reached museums and collections.

Cheers.

My uncle bought one after the war, his Father told him he was crazy. It pretty much disintegrated in his yard on his farm outside Calgary, Alberta. It was just a skeleton, gave me the heeby jeebies when I was a kid, he donated parts to the Calgary Aerospace museum over time.
