About This File

FSX/P3D Blackburn Beverley V1A. The Blackburn Beverley was a four-engined, medium-range high-capacity transport. Its first flight took place in June 1953 and a total of forty-seven aircraft were built. The Beverley had an outstanding ability for packing and dropping heavy loads of up to 22 tons and, aided by powerful propeller reversing and a sturdy fixed undercarriage, it was able to land and take off at small and makeshift airstrips. Employed on a wide variety of military and humanitarian missions, for the ten years of its active service it was the RAF's proverbial no-nonsense workhorse. To date, only the first production Beverley survives as a museum piece. The model comes with an ILS and GCA capable VC, variable intensity cockpit lighting, and propeller reversing. Two textures are included, XB261 representing a fictional reincarnation of the third production aircraft, and XM109 as painted in the 'Middle East' camouflage scheme of the final batch. Models and textures by Manfred Jahn, flight dynamics by Wayne Tudor, and soundset by Ted Wolfgang.

Truely great model to fly. M Jahn and company have once again produced an amazing and beautiful craft that is far superior to any payware. Thank You so much for your work that gives such joy to so many

Hi guys, glad you like this ugly duckling. Got to report one minor error, unfortunately I included the wrong startup smoke effect file - b50_EngStrt1.fx - in the upload package. Simply make a copy of it calling it Bev_EngStrt1.fx, or edit the line in aircraft.cfg under [Effects]. Thanks, and sorry about that.

Hi,

For some reason I can't get the FSX panel up. Have reloaded quite a few times. Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Mo

Sorry, what's an FSX panel? No panel window in panel.cfg is named 'FSX'. Are you looking for a 2D cockpit panel? There is none, we haven't used one for over 10 years.

Sorry, still mystified here. Which panel window are you not getting? And which do you expect?

The throttle levers refuse to move, they remain stubornly to idle, any idea?

Not on my setup (or anyone else's that I'm aware of). Perhaps try a reload of the aircraft, that sometimes settles things, and make sure Autopilot speed control (Monitor panel) is OFF. What if you use the joystick button to increase throttle, do they move with that? Or the climb/cruise presets in Monitor?

I was able to replicate the situation when activating speed control in Monitor>Autopilot. Once you do that, possibly inadvertently, the gauge takes over throttle control. Luckily Monitor indicates the current state and allows you to turn it off. Thanks for the feedback.

For some reason, the aircraft appears all black on the runway.

Uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Same problem. Any suggestions ?

"All black" usually means it doesn't access the textures. Check your folder structure, folder names etc. Do you get the 'Monitor' window when loading the plane? Note there is an earlier Beverley model, too, which is not related to this one.

"All black" usually means the model doesn't access the textures. Could anything be wrong with the folder setup? On loading the plane, do you get the 'Monitor' panel? Do the textures show in the aicraft selection menu? Note there is another Beverley version around, and the two are not compatible.

Black means it doesn't get its textures. Check folder structure and cfg calls. Does the Monitor panel show after loading? (It should, even on a black airplane.) Note there is another Beverley model around and the two do not share any textures.

Sorry for the duplicate posts, for some reason the page just wouldn't update.

mjahn, you said there is another model around. Can you tell me where I can find that download? maybe I can get that one to work.

Thanks.

Can't seem to find it myself any more. Try searching user 'lazarus' and 'beverley_x.zip'. He originally released it at Sim Outhouse.
