The aircraft have been updated and upgraded over a period of time so grab a new download!
If you can't fly one of these, pick a similar aircraft that can attain/maintain 8000' for an hours duration and climb at 350' per minute and post links in this thread so we can all see ya at Flight Time! From our point of origin, we will fly counter/anti clockwise around Lake Geneva and follow the valley on the East edge to, and overfly LSGS, and land at LSTA: Raron Airport, as our midpoint refresh and refuel point. Speed for the first half will be 90 KIAS to about 3500'.
After refresh, we will again depart, climbing at 350' per minute and at 90 KIAS directly to 8000' to get over a mountain and overfly LSMC, LSMM, LSPG, LSMA and land at LSZC: Buochs Airport. as our final destination. We will arrive at beautiful Buochs with enough time left for some "barnstorming" and general fancy flying of these extremely maneuverable type aircraft so, practice up to show the group some of your best wild moves!
Looking forward to seeing a plethora of these brightly colored and decorated aircraft all flying together! The route manager file is strictly for scenery gathering and the exact route will not follow this exactly.

Would like to use my own Camel texture, Black Magic if that's ok, xstarter sound file included, pop it in main sound file, I think it's cool (pinched it) found it in Se5a.
Will be using push to talk in Teamspeak so no more clunking!

Works better with xml file, I need more coffee!

Awesome, Mate! Thank You....is it OK I incorporate this into the aircraft download so it'll be a permanent addition in the future?
VooDoo
Yes of course! all open source kit, glad you like it. First project, but not the last m8.
supra omnia ego sum amicus tuus
Really disappointed I can't make this one. It looks like it should be a good night.
The prop had a funny texture issue on it, and the boss was a bit off colour so I took the liberty of remapping it. Hopefully that's ok, VooDoo?
Full Camel version with textured prop and Actors repaint included here:

Yay and Super Thanks, Gents!
I put all the goodies together with the texture updates and the new livery and updated the Hangar download. This'll be more fun than a barrel of monkeys!

@VooDoo_daVinci The Camel's control column is inverted. Forward goes back, left goes right, etc.

Tried mine from new download, no problem with inverted column, your controller settings?
supra omnia ego sum amicus tuus
Not the controls, but the animation of the stick (and possibly the ailerons, my brain can’t figure that bit out XD). During the flightnight when I turned left the stick in the cockpit went right, and visa-versa. I’ll see if I can grab a video tomorrow to show what I mean.
