looking nice! i like how models are displayed in SketchUp, better than those godawful colors that Gmax/Max imposes on us  ;D

i assume you have some sort of plan as to how you're going to export your model from SketchUp to FSX?

Sure do.... I can export/import to .dxf .3ds and a few others.  I just use CVA converter and convert them from .dxf to .fsp and vola into FSDS.  But I still have a bunch of work to do and will most likely be building this in sections. And as with anything you build it takes time and patience.  Just expect a bunch of questions from me. :)
