FSX modelling on 3ds Max?

Hi all,
I'm new to the forums here and I was just wondering,
can you create models for FSX on 3ds max 9 or 10? I'm
asking this as I use these two applications for creating
models on a R/C flight simulator known as RealFlight G5.5.
I'm not the best at modeling but was just wanting to make
a plane I could not find ANYWHERE, even on Google

Short answer YES for 9 (not sure about 10)

But Gmax (which is almost the same thing) made by discreet ,the same tool same tricks ,exports directly into FSX-MDL format ,while in 3dmax you have to make 3 more steps to achieve the mdl file  each time you need to check it
You know? while you are working sometimes you use two softwares FSX and Gmax-3dmax
beyond the modeling skills,there is also the deal of making gauges ,making textures using the proper format which is dds dtx 5 and a lot of other information you will need to know

No, there is not. "Sharing" would be a copyright infringement, as well as unethical.
