Cargo Planes with VC

I know I started a topic for monsterous cargo planes, but I am now looking for any sized cargo plane with virtual cockpit. I don't care if it's free or payware. I just don't want to pay too much if that's the case (no $30-$40). I found some cargo planes with vc like the an-26 but there seems to be something wrong with the air. files and other ones I find that I like have no VC. I also do not want a cargo plane that's just a modified Boeing 747 repaint. I'm looking for something different like those military, or UN type cargo planes. I just want a good dirty ol' cargo plane. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I like the C-130, I had to turn off bloom and I have no idea why I get this......

Hope I can get help with this as it is the only thing stopping me from using this plane.

In the meantime I will try the Argosy as you mentioned Is it FSX compatible? The readme says !!!FS2004 Only!!!! Thanks again.

here are just a few of Mike Stones::

airbus a320-200
  "     a330-200
beech starship 2000
boeing 727-200
   "     737-800
   "     b52H (and M) stratofortress
C-17 Globemaster III
Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker
General Dynamics F111C - Ardvark (and the F model Ardvark)
Fairchild A-10 (armed and clean)
   "     C119 Boxcar
Lockheed C130 J Hercules
   "     C141-b Starlifter
   "     C5-A Galaxy
   "     EC-121 Warningstar
   "     F117-A Nighthawk
McDonald Douglas KC-10

Granted most if not all of these are for 2004, but I am sure that they will work in FSX.  If wanted, I can test these in FSX "BEFORE" i send them out being that i have both FS9 and X Deluxe.

The subject of this topic is Cargo Planes with VC.

I don't know if they work in FSX or not but none of Mike Stone's models has a VC.

As stated in an above post, I have a major issue with Simshed's C-130. If anyone can tell me how to fix the panel problem I'm all ears. So far every freeware cargo plane I downloaded seems to not work with FSX.

I ended up buying the C-130 Hercules DVD at J&R computer world. It's the Captain Sim version. I love the way it handles, I just have to get used to the AP and figure out the hotkeys.

I'm still always on the lookout for cargo planes so I will still keep an ear open.
