What kind of problems did you see? I've sent a lot of changes to Erik about two weeks ago. That update fixed a lot of stuff, including the autopilot, which makes it a lot easier to fly. The CVS version is a little heavy during take-off. I.e. doesn't start pitching up until at about 200 kts, but we're working on that. Please let me know what problems you had, and I can see what I can fix.
Also, note that including the MD-11 at this stage is not my first preference: that would be including the new traffic manager and AIFlightplan code, and use *only* the 737 traffic. On the other hand: The MD-11 *is* the first aircraft that has multi livery support, which is a kinda neat feature. :-) Cheers, Durk On Thursday 22 July 2004 19:51, Curtis L.
