IVe heard stuff recently, the guy who makes the DC-3 (Jan Visser) has posted on Sim-Outhouse a few times.  He keeps saying soon, but hes got a few more models to finish up and textures.  Its gonna be worth the wait, dont worry: Fully clickable VC, New models (just some more RAF Dakotas and a Tow model), lots of new textures, improved pilots, improved windows, just alot of great improvements to make a great aircraft even better.

All i want is windows that look clear or dark when they're supposed to... I go to 2D for my clicking usually, so I'm not upset about the limited function of the VC.

Other than those two minor issues...
And the fact that mine always defaults at way over GTW...
And the fact that you can't turn on the red cockpit lights, only white...

And...:P

Talk about models that need finishing!??! ::P

Not that I'm complaining- I love this thing, warts and all. A million times better overall than the default FS9 DC3.

I doubt that youll be able to switch the lights in the cockpit, FS limitation.  But the windows are definately going to be fixed, and already are if you download OY-BPB

Been thinking of purchasing their DC-3 for a while, and now with the coming update, I may just go for it.

If only there were Lisunov LI-2 and XC-17G glider versions available as addons, I'd be all over it like white on rice.

>:( Delayed again.  Not coming out on friday.  I love MAAM, but its been a year since this upgrade was announced, and its really starting to tick me off that they havent released it yet and now are delaying its release until after their airshow

Guys, I'm thinking about buying this addon.
Would it better to wait, do you think there'll be some "special offer" when the upgrade is released?
