Weeeelllllll . . .

I did a few searches on the usual sites (SimV, AVSim, Flightsim, etc) as well as a few Google searches.

You spelled it wrong, is probably why you couldn't find much about it.  Its "Guppy" instead of "Guppie".  Not a big deal, but on the net, spelling does count! ;)

However, you probably wouldn't have found much, anyway.  I searched all my usual sites and found zilch (aside from an FS98 version on Flightsim), so switched to Google and looked through every permutation I could think of for Guppy and Flight Simulator, to no avail.

Maybe one doesn't exist? ???

Weird . . .

I seem to remember one for FS2002 ....... where from I can't remember. Try searching for Airbus rather than the type of aircraft.

One Guppy
Several Guppys.

For example http://www.allaboutguppys.com.

I've been working on one for years, but I've never quite reached a point where I am happy enough to release it. I should be ready soon.

Well, lilley.  First, when posting a link, click the little button in the corner of the Google window that reads "remove frame".  That will shorten the link considerably.  It leaves the Google system and transports you directly to the page you are viewing.

Second, to post a hyperlink, add the code {url=paste link here}SOME TEXT{/url}.  Replace "paste link here" with the link itself, and put some text in the obvious spot.  Replace the { and } with usual brackets [ and ].

It's 'Super Guppy' ...
The last one I knew about (freeware) was the Project Airbus version for FS2000

That's not a Super Guppy. It is mis-labeled, infact, it is a Beluga.

Oops... thats what i meant (Beluga). DIdnt know the difference... but any aircraft with a insanely large storage area above the cockpit making it look like a balloon would work!

GW Simulations was making a freeware super guppy a little while ago (I supplied the dynamics files for it), but I'm not sure what's happening to it at the moment.

Graham...?
