Thanks for the nice comments!

Not sure if the plane is FSX compatible since I just own FS2004, so I guess you just need to try it to find out!
Also, there is an unofficial mod (named: "TBM 700 Smooth Throttle Modification" on flightsim.com) for some aspects of the plane, such as the throttle response time, available on at least flightsim.com.
Fixes an overly sensitive turbine, adjusts some engine gauge readings to be more accurate, and adjusts the lights.
(I had to go in and manually change a light entry after getting this mod in order for VC illumination to show up correctly. Just ask me what to do if you get this plane and the mod.)

EDIT: Here are two small VC shots. Had to keep the size down to preserve some of the quality. It is a truly fantastic and often overlooked piece of freeware!
