CAC Wirraway for RAAF

Since there are 2 engines coupled to each other, which engine is 1,2 etc, is it outer first, inner first etc. And for engine start, same thing is it prop wont rotate until engine 2 is started etc? just curious as its a duplex drive arrangement. Same for prop pitch is it automatic?

Also a question on the MBR, is it fixed pitch or variable pitched?

That would be nice from an Australian historical mission perspective. It would certainly make for some not-so-nice challenges as a pilot flying it in air combat missions against the Japanese! Although primarily a trainer, it was used quite a bit as a combat aircraft in the early desperate actions against the Japanese.

If anyone with the skills is keen to make it a project I'm pretty much a one stop shop for any historical, photographic, or tech data you would like to have for it. Just message me. Generally speaking, the aerial actions of the Pacific in 1942 are my most specialized area of historical expertise so you're welcome to quiz me on that anytime if it helps to improve the sim.

It was a victim of the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. IIRC, Team Pacific had the project well along, plus a few other projects, when they lost everything.

Moral: Backups. Multiple backups in multiple locations.

After that, I have no idea what happened to them. I think that they lost interest in modding IL2 and moved on to other things.
