Nice VC, but shame about the "ghost aircraft" appearance.
Brett, ask Alrot for some attractive (co-)pilot models.

Thanks for the screen-shot intro :)
That happened to me too, once (the door). It's happened on other planes too and I can't remember why.

You know ? I spent a month trying to model a decent pilot. I just can't DO it, and gave up. If someone wants to add one, I'd be happy to send them the Gmax source file..

I was just looking at the VC shot again.. 20 degrees of flaps, 80kias, 500fpm descent over the numbers (warmed my heart ) :)

FSX has made VC flying too good to not have VCs

Flying VC vs Flying 2D is like flying two different airplanes now.. Plus it's a cockpit I'm intimately familiar with.. ;)

Do you think this plane will work in FS9? I want to get a bit more involved in virtual GA flying, and this aircraft seems like it would be a very good starting point - thanks in no small part to the self-evidently wonderful modelling of the interior and exterior. Thanks and congratulations to Brett for this plane.

I plan on re-texturing, re-animating and re-compiling for FS9... But right now, a Gmax screen is the LAST thing I want to look at...

:D

Nice to hear that you are planning a FS9 version, too! This looks like just the bird to go on an evening cruise with!
And from me, too, Nice VC!
