Depends on whether or not all engines behave identically or some have a little bit of “character.”

If they’re all identical I would do the two wing engines on one set of T/P/M and the tail engine on the other.

If they’re all a little different I would just buy a standalone Logitech Quadrant.

I intend to just bind all 3 mixture levers to somewhere else - I can put 8 sliders together but unfortunately not 9! I guess if I really want my desk to look like some sort of control room I can get another Logi quadrant.

Given that Anguilla Air Services is one of the very few actual Trislander operators in the world, can we pretty please get an AAS livery?

I believe the number of liveries at launch has been mentioned at “12++” - while I don’t think we’ve been told what those are yet, I would think a current operator of the Trislander has a great chance of making that list! :slight_smile:

Already done :slight_smile:

I’m hoping for some privately owned liveries. Also, I’m pumped that we can change the registration number, as then 3rd Party livery artists can offer unregistered liveries that we can register anywhere in the world.

And I’m hoping one day Black Box will update the Islander with the same feature! :grinning:

The BN2 Islander will be getting this as part of the THE FULL “STUDY LEVEL” TREATMENT just as soon as we release Project Joey :slight_smile:

(PS … I do hope the moderators do not label this post as “OFF TOPIC” As they did when I happened to mention the Trislander on a Islander thread :astonished:

I’m curious to what the Black Box Corporate Livery looks like. I’m still hoping someone will do a blacked out livery like the BN2 has with the 007 one.

I’ll do one when this little thing gets released, if there’s not one already done by the time I get around to it.

is it possible to get some more instrument cluster shake at power/building speed on the ground??

You mean BN2s have enough engine power to actually make things move? I thought they just made noise :stuck_out_tongue:

Kenneth will certainly enjoy one of those! :wink:

Will the study level BN-2 be a separate aircraft, a payware upgrade or a free upgrade?
