This aircraft and its accessories have been fully constructed by the author of this note. No copying or piracy of 3D object is used in their manufacture. They were made from drawings , photos , videos and other documents for bringing more realism possible , within the constraints of their use in SL .

Percival Gull Vega is an Australian aircraft which was built between 1935 and 1939, motorized by the Gipsy Six engine from De Havilland. This model has been replicated in SL at the request of a TBM client.

The display of Percival on the screen has been optimized for a level of detail (LOD) "2", so it is perfectly visible from afar with a computer set low graphics performance. The shapes do not "break" significantly at close range.
It does not takeoff on few meters only, it require power and distance.
It can fall out of fuel (switchable function) and the tank can be filled with the fuel pump provided or with any other compatible TBM pumps.
It is scripted so as to make it less dependent on the basic behavior of the "engine" that is usually found in vehicular scripts.
- The engine can be accelerated during taxiing, even at full throttle. The Percival do not takeoff when the minimum takeoff speed is not reached.
- It stall in flight and falls if the speed is too low (switchable function)
- It flies like a glider when motor to 0% or cut due to run out of fuel, with loss of altitude of course.
Four seats for 1 pilot and 3 passengers. The input and output of the pilot is animated.
The doors can be open and closed, like the hatches of the engine cover.

Crash effect (noise, smoke, engine cut, bent propeller) in case of impact on the nose, with "reset" command for repair it.

Automatic update system triggered when it rez on the Ground.
Doppler sound effects improved by script.
The engine bench work. It is usable by all residents.
The plane is "modif" (except scripts), in particular the textures whose templates are provided in 2048x2048 PSD format.

You know, I got this plane today at a really GREAT price break, took it to one of my favorite airports and took her out for a flight! She let me know right away that I wasn't as 'great' as I thought and quickly put me in my place! She flies unbelievably real in the sense that if you don't fly right, you just made crash land with a cloud of smoke, hence what happened to me! I laughed so hard...but second round she flew like an angel! Wait, the Hud is nice and simple and the animations - WOW - nice price for this plane! I have another TBM product and I must say tania does nice work! Thank you for a nice plane...it turned my head away from a pricier one I was about to get. (hehehe) :)
