Resizing/Scaling

OK, after loading CFS2, after a long hiatus, to help Harley88 with his Sink the Bismark mission I now find myself once again adding campaigns and planes to the sim. Hey gotta fill the HD with something, right? ;D
Anyhoo, I found this nice little P-40B on the SimV sight and put in my a/c folder-yippee. :D Problem is it's too little, as in tiny. I remember a resizing/scaling utility for CFS1 that would correct this, but was there ever a similar utility made for CFS2? Or will the the CFS1 version perchance work in CFS2?

This was a bug with AI aircraft in CFS1 only. No rescaling should be necessary in CFS2.

Thanks for responding Doug. This is a flyable aircraft, however it looks like it may be a CFS1 conversion. It's the CFS2 AVG Tomahawk II flown  by Chuck Older with visuals and flight model from Jamie Biscup and Bruce Thorson. It shows up about 1/2 to 1/3 the size of other aircraft in the list and on the runway.

Thanks again Doug. I'll try that. I've already been using MDL Converter on previous 3rd party aircraft. I only had this plane because Yoshi's AVG campaigns called for it, but I'm starting to think it would have been easier to edit the .mis files, all 40 or so, for another P-40.  :D
I also remembered SetscaleW from my CFS1 days. Tried it on this aircraft with bad results. ;D
