Hi Georg > thank you for the latest update of your Seneca II.

Thanks > If I am not wrong - I just did one landing with the "new" Seneca II - > you also fixed the "flap setting behaviour problem". Correct, my first attempt to get the fdm config was feeding datcom+ with the geometric dimensions of the aircraft without validating the output of datcom. Now I used this output and merged it with some calculated values for drag and lift coefficients and some experience with the real thing. For example I removed the "pitch due to flaps" factor and adjusted "lift due to flaps" and "drag due to flaps". When setting flaps now with a trimmed aircraft, you may notice a little "nose up" for a few seconds before you go straight again.
Oh and when you fly, don't forget to close the cowl flaps (use the menu Seneca->Open/Close cowl flaps) after your climb. You will get approx. 10 knots more cruise speed. > Alone to fly this aircraft is a big joy but when I combined it with the > new outstanding really unbelievable *Paris* scenery (screenshots on the > German FG forum) I got a very strong simulated flying experience.
