Avro Shackleton MR.3
I promised props. I promised roundels. I promised fin flashes. Here they are.
The Avro Shackleton. The Maritime Reconnisance mk. 3 version.
I will do a longer version of the blurb later. This is the short version.
AG1. Not used (yet.)
AG2. Not used (yet.)
AG3 + vtol down - drop flaps.
AG4 + vtol down - lower detection array
AG5 + vtol down - open bomb bay
AG6. Lights and auto leveling system
AG7. Activate nose turret
AG8. Lock / unlock ailerons and elevator
Notes;
1. Nose guns are operated using roll and pitch controls. To operate nose turret optimally, deactivate AG8 and activate AG6 & AG7. Switch to camera 1. Now you can spray and pray. There is no gunsight.
2. When the auto leveler (AG6) is active, use trim to alter pitch attitude.
3. The bomb bay has 6 torpedos and two bombs. There are also flare and chaff bins.
Have fun.
