looking nice! i like how models are displayed in SketchUp, better than those godawful colors that Gmax/Max imposes on us ;D
i assume you have some sort of plan as to how you're going to export your model from SketchUp to FSX?

Sure do.... I can export/import to .dxf .3ds and a few others. I just use CVA converter and convert them from .dxf to .fsp and vola into FSDS. But I still have a bunch of work to do and will most likely be building this in sections. And as with anything you build it takes time and patience. Just expect a bunch of questions from me.
