				Ok, so here's the story...
 I make a UFO in Gmax. The radius of the fuselage is what i want, 6 ft(1.9 m). I texture and finish it in like 10 minutes. I export. I try it out in FS and it's as big as the EAA airfield!!!!!! I seriously seriously seriously need some help on fixing this.

				I remember a weird problem like that.. making .bgl files for FS with Gmax..
Make sure ALL your settings are metric.. not just Gmax.. but in Windows too.. I think that solved it for me...
Someone else will either verify this.. or.. well.. tell me how wrong I am  
good luck.

				A couple of tips:
Make sure your gmax settings - Customize ->Preferences->under the General Tab, set your "System Units Scale" to 1 Unit=1.o Meters.
Make sure your Windows decimal indicator is a period (.) and not a comma (,).
*Usually*  one of these two corrects the problem.
