Too many faults, can't land, can't take off, no afterburner flames.

@DC1973
Could it have anything to do with the way the Concorde is installing? This is the compatibility tab on the Properties Install. I install it as administrator. Again after a clean install last night no flames for reheats. -
@DC1973 I have downloaded the new version twice and reinstalled the Concorde at least three times. I can not understand why I do not see the flames or any reheat effects, or why the plane can not hold a 3,000 ft. altitude on approach to an ILS establishment. Sigh. Just have no more ideas of how to fix.

@Cropduster47 Hi, I think that, reading back across your posts, if you're flying procedural on VATSIM and attempting 3000ft ILS intercepts, then Concorde's basic autopilot may just not be able to respond in time to hold the glideslope. As per the manual, to obtain an ILS requires intercepting the beams as far out as possible. Concorde is not a study-level airplane and is designed for all users, including casual users who may not have any knowledge of proper procedures ( real world ). A manual 3000ft ILS intercept, with proper procedures, should be relatively simple.
I have again checked all that I can but I cannot replicate anything in your reports unless I really abuse Concorde and try to intercept ILS beams at less than 10 miles with the fuel out of balance. A normal, 15+ mile intercept from just below and to the side of the ILS beams allows Concorde to intercept and manoeuvre onto glideslope and sail all the way down without any issues whatsoever. Picture attached, this time at the very last moment of a full ILS approach in FSX.
I have absolutely no clue as to why your reheat flames are not showing - there appears to be no good reason for this as they're not an effect, they're actually modelled in, so they cannot "not" be there. I wonder if perhaps you're using FSX:Steam - there should not be a difference really, but maybe something changed with that version, which I do not own.
-
@DC1973 I'm using FSX:SE and I see the reheat just fine.

@HighBypass Thanks for letting me know. I have not had any other reports of the issues being suffered here and I've tested everything repeatedly. I'm afraid that the problems really do seem to be caused by something at the customer's end, but I can't imagine what they might be - it's very strange indeed!

@Cropduster47 Is there any reason why you are running it in compatibility mode for windows XP

Just wanted to drop in and say I bought the FS2020 version of this yesterday and it works beautifully.
One of the best Concorde models I’ve yet experienced and it sounds - at silly volume through my very deep bass speakers - very much like I remember hearing her….
Another top flight, Just Flight product.

It's actually a top flight DC Designs product, but thanks for letting us know. We are proud to have been able to help with its success.

Hi Derek,
Indeed you’re right, it’s a DC Designs product, but, I found it via the Just Flight website whom I presume are the marketers / promoters, so I think my point stands… :D
