Oh wow....shots are wonderful... :)

That aircraft must be in all configurations then.

-floats
-amphibious floats
-wheels
-wheel/skis
-skis

Chuck will the skis retract for just wheel landings and are there different ski settings or just up and down?

If so then all aircraft developers should take note on that is the way to do it.

If the aircraft can be used in different configurations then that is the way to develop it... ;)

Different ski settings would be much more realistic as there are reasons for using different ski settings when flying real world aircraft.

Oh I posted a question in the other Antarctica post asking about the Twotter configurations before I read this one.

Sorry Chuck... :)

Who makes this aircraft or is it Freeware?

Thanks guys :)

@Doug........the skis are adjustable, but there are only two positions (probably a limitation of FSX)....full ski and wheels down :-/

The model is from Aerosoft......here's a link.

I'd look around and see if you can catch it on sale somewhere though 8-)



@Micheal.....the only Dash 7 I know of is for FS9 by Milton Shupe........I believe it has been ported over for FSX, but I don't have a link :-[
EDIT:
I found the Dash 7 port over....here's the link

Thanks Chuck... :)

I see there are five models.

Does that include the Float Amphibian?

I don't know why they left out an amphibious model :-? :-?
It's been out for quite some time now, so we probably can't even hope for an update :P

There is hope, http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/to ... -extended/
