Hi !
I love FsPassengers. I love vintage airplanes too. So I've decided to create my VA using only old aircraft : Stinson Reliant, Travel Air, Piper
J3,
Curtiss Jenny, these ones for small flights ; DH89 Dragon Rapide, Constellation, Monomail 221A, Beechcraft D18S, for long distance
flights.
But I have some problems. Some aircrafts don't have any flaps, or nav lights. And my VA always receive some penalties after the flights

there is a problem with Fs9 let me explain, since 02 09 version FsP use a FS9 function
something like "does this aircraft have flaps?" the problem we saw with at least
the ford trimotor is that it have a strange flap section:

[Flaps.0]
type= 0
span-outboard= 0.5
extending-time= 0.0
system_type= 0
flaps-position.0= 0.0, 0.0
flaps-position.1= 0.0, 0.0

You can't move them, you can't use them but still the Fs9 function return that "this aircraft have flap"
if I remove those lines above from the aircraft.cfg the function return "no flaps" as it should.

So it seem the here an inconsistency in Fs9 about aircraft that have no flaps, I tried some workaround
but ALL fs9 function related to flaps return "yes flaps" even you can't move them...

The solution is either to be sure to remove the "flaps" section in the aircraft.cfg either to
disable this penalty in more_option.cfg

About ligths you may disable this penalty in the setup dialog, most problem arrive because the button on panel
are fake or because they do two action (light strob and beacon in same time) or because you miss a button
(beacon)

Hope it explain ?
