Good Morning All,
I have just completed my flying hours, and am now quite good at flying this six hundered tonne monster.
The model I have is an old FS2000 model, without panels. So does anyone know where I can find panels for the AN225 or give me a clue as to how to make my own.
Also when taxiing it refuses to steer using the nose wheel (making it somewhat impracticle), so I guess the model needs converting.
Any help would be appreciated :)
Regards
Mick

Unfortunately, there isn't one.... Yet. I've been playing with CfgEdit, trying to get something decent on the board, but really haven't had the time to devote to it.
I used the An-124 bitmap and started to make some modifications, but that's where it sits, at the moment. I'm a novice, plain and simple. I'd like to see one of the experts take a stab at it.
(You listening, Tipster?) ;D

Really?
I tried searching allot of sites, but couldn't find one.
That's why they call you "Tipster", right? ;D
Thank you, sir!

LOL - the "Tipster" bit comes from when I used to run the FS2002 tips site.
If you can't find that panel, let me know and I'll make arrangements to get it to you.

Why, thanks again. I'd appreciate it.
BTW...
I downloaded your Duke panel for the Standard edition. Really nice. I like the Garmin gauge, allot. I don't have a Baron or Duke, but I got it for my OV-10 Bronco, which came with allot of FS98 gauges in the panel, and crashed the sim every time I opened it.
The panel lends itself perfectly to that aircraft.
Thanks for that, too!

Very welcome and glad you're enjoying it.
I'll get back to you shortly with the details of how to get the panel.

Thanks Tipster - I've found the panel, just need to get it installed now!

The other issue with this model is it won't steer on the ground - it's seems the nose steering is broken and use the L/R throttles to steer doesn't work

. Anyone you can suggest who might have some ideas?

Mick
