    I saw the new screenies for the F33 and noticed the two at night - there seems to be 3D knobs where the GPS is located. Please do not include these so we can drop the Reality XP GPS in its place.

    I noticed that with the 185 your mapping overlaps the texturesThis made it very easy to match up the textures when painted, can you keep doing it, particularly on the f33 and forthcoming c208.thanks :-)

    I recently bought the FS2004 Seneca and have been trying to work out where everything is from the rather brief documentation. I would be grateful if somebody could help me out with a few questions:All the reviews of this aircraft refer to separate switches for instrument lights and dome light. I have found the switch for the dome light, but cannot find the switch for the instrument lights. I don't want to have to resort to the default FS keystroke of Shift+L. So where is this switch? The reviews also say that you can open various doors and baggage area. I have only managed to open the door next to the co-pilot's seat (Shift+E). Which other doors can be opened, and how? H…

    Hi Carenado. Would it be possible to not use mirrored textures for the Skywagon? (Or any release down the line) It would make repainting a lot easier for end users. And your aircraft are fun to paint.

    I just re-purchased the Carenado Arrow. I purchsed the aircraft before, but my computer was to slow to handle the VC and I returned the aircraft. I now have a new computer and I re-purchased the Arrow. Where do I find the NAV/GPS toggle switch in the VC? ThanksTom

    I am running FS9 under Windows 7 Pro64. Why is it that I can see the folder for the C152 but not for the C206, C182 and the Mooney? All four of the aircraft run very well under Windows 7. My problem is that my Mooney was a very early version and requires the "radio" patch. The Mooney flys well, but to change the second set of Comm and Navigation Radios I need the patch. Under Windows 7 I can neither see the aircraft folder to load the updated config file, nor can I load the the new gauge that was part of the zip file.Any help?Tom

    Got the Mooney, wonderful plane. Has really only one problem that is driving me nuts - the engine sound file has a rhythmic spike that shows up pretty much anywhere above half power. I've swapped in sound files from various Cessnas and the FS2004 default Mooney, but they're just not right. Carenado's soundfile is perfect, except for the clunk. Is there an IO360 soundfile out there anywhere that sounds better? Thanks, Dave

  21. Please can anybody tell me how to operate the alternate air levers and cowl flaps in the FS2004 Seneca? I can just about get the cowl flaps to open and close using the mouse, but this doesn't seem to work very easily. Or should I use the standard FS keystrokes of Ctrl-Shift-C/V? As far as the alternate air levers are concerned, I cannot get them to move at all. Nothing happens when I put my mouse near them, and I am not aware of any FS keystrokes for this action.Thanks for your help.

    I have just installed the Seneca and am wondering whether I have all the documentation that I should. This is the first Carenado aircraft that I have bought, so I have nothing to compare it to. I read a review of Carenado's Mooney in PC Pilot magazine, and this said that the Mooney comes with a set of manuals including a 56 page Pilot's Operating Handbook and a 15 page Emergency and Normal Procedures manual. All that I have with the Seneca is a Speed Reference sheet (1 page, and erroneously titled Emergency Procedure), Checklists (10 pages), Emergency Procedures (11 pages, this time correctly titled), and VC Operation (1 page, which doesn't seem complete as the cowl flaps…
