I might regret saying this, but it's best to let you know before it's released.

I am sorry to announce that the Full Package Mercedes will not include a 2D panel for the model.

This is due to lack of help and resources that I have.

I feel that, in order to make up for the loss of the 2D panel, am better off refining the details for the Mercedes' interior.

I am working hard at full throttle because I want this addon to be released in time for the 100th anniversary of powered flight.

I understand. You might ask why anyone wants to celebrate a Century of Flight with a car. Well, have you ever thought of racing a plane with a car? Or acting a follow-me car for an AI aircraft? ;)

Anyways, I am now work hard on making the "active gauges" for the dynamic virtual cockpit. I will also include a small surprise for you people as well. ;) ;D

The sound files have been really tricky for me since this is my first time programming sound files for the FS model. Therefore, You can only hear the sounds from within the car.

Also, is there  anyone here who is willing to make gauges for the Mercedes in less than 5 days? :P :-[

The only custom gauges that I need are the GroundSpeed Indicator [in MPH], RPM Indicator, and Fuel Quantity Indicator.

I'll also add in the CD player. But I'll have to ask permission first.

I belive that it was in the mid 1910's that cars held races with aircraft. But it's one of those things that still happens..... :)
