That´s a good news . Thank you.
Do you think it will be available before the week-end?

Yes, we have now been right through the fuel system and engine performance envelope using test info from 1940. Hopefully we should be on the numbers for a Merlin of the period.

Any news on the paintkit?

Thank you, just can’t wait for the update
We are preparing one. It may not make the Service Upgrade as these kits are extraordinarily complex things to do and as it is essentially “free” it is not on the priority list. There will be one.

I really like the liveries / paints that come with it already (I want to fly the QV restored but that does not work properly due to INOP generator) But I think done a really good job of those.
Will there be an update today? So we can all have a play over the weekend

Wonderful aircraft.
On my system I have an issue that I did not see being mentioned yet. The slip needle works like a turn indicator and the turn needle indicates slip. In the manual the pictures display a proper behaviour. No clue what may be causing this.

You can always do what Carenado does: give a completely white texture, very easy, and everything is possible
how do you do this???
Set the white layer to multiply and put your paint below it. Works really well, here’s an example:
