Hi
I have downloaded SP2 (Liveries) of the DC -8 but are unable to install as it states I do not have the latest version of the Dc -8. My last update on the DC 8 was Dec 2017 and I do not notice any newer updates.
Can any one advise please.
Thanks
Sundowner

Hi Flavio,

Strange, not seen that weird artifact before.

Please report any issues to the support team so they can investigate further - http://www.justflight.com/support-contact

Hi JF staff, with the SP2 new package i´m seeing this "artifact" pointing to the VC with the DC8-73F:









Anybody has a clue of what it is and if it´s an issue with the model?

Besides that, two more issues:
- Flight Director switch in pilot side not working at all.
- Door maps to use with GSX all wrong. Some maps point to no existent doors.


Thanks!

In P3D V4 the DC-8 is now an awesome flying wing!

Kinda fun to fly until the fix is in!

Hi

Did this Patch change the FD commandbars to the V-shaped version.
How can I get my needles back?

It's on the list, however for the 50-70 we'll require an updated gauge from an external developer who was responsible for the FMC, so I'm not sure on a timescale for that one. That won't affect the 10-40 though.

Wonderful and many thanks! Clap

Is a P3D v4 update on the cards, dare I ask, seeing as SPs are being rolled out for the DC-8?
