lol Pete.

FYI I downloaded and installed that model, and though it's pretty decent visually, I did notice a few things...

The author says that in the modification to make the aircraft FS9 friendly he lost the rotation of the wheels.  That's fine, it's a minor thing, so I'm not too worried about that.

BUT...you also lose the landing gear struts entirely, plus as soon as the aircraft leaves the ground the wheels completely disappear, making it very easy (in spot) to completely forget they're down.

Also, the aircraft handles WAY too loosely.  You'd think that something that size would be a nightmare to get airborne, but this one just takes off about 1/3 of the way down the runway and rolls like an F-18.

Just my two cents.
