Thank you GSO.

I've tried that one. Its a remade version of Woodward's excelent fs9 Beaver.
When changing the panel to the stock DHC-2 its ok, but i simply can't get props showing normal in fsx on that model!!

I'm now working on getting some "float wheels" underneath the stock ac, BUT that is surely not easy either.....

Anyone with ideas on doing that??

Believe it or not bass, I've been dreaming of fleshing out the default Beaver for YEARS...

Wheels
Tundra Tires
Skis

The Maule M-7 has needed some serious love for a long time too!

Pants
Tricycle
Amphibious Floats!

I know NOTHING about 3D design, repainting, or FDEs.... yet. perhaps I'll find the motivation somehow to learn!

I believe you Spindrift ;)
We're in the same boat then, or should i say plane :think:

I find it a little strange, that no experts manage to do that, yet, so i'm hoping some do see this, and remember the two of us!!

To do what you suggest would require the original source files. If it were possible I'm sure it would have been done by now.

Yes Hagar, i'm aware it has to do with something like that....
But why the h... are M$ keeping those files in the darkness?

They've sacked, and closed, any support to Flight Simulator!
What on earth are they gaining by holding those files for them self? (I need a whistleblower here :lol: )

Money, no! Power, yes! But why use power, when not participating anymore :?
