There is a Waco Glider out in the glider sections of this site.  I don't know if it will work with ACOF, but you could try.

As for the Spruce Goose, there doesn't seem to be even ONE out there for FS2002 or FS2004, unfortunately.  I have been contemplating making one for awhile now, but have not found much reason to.

I've been working on one for some time now.  I'm from Long Beach, so this aircraft means alot to me.   Here is a screenshot.  It's by no means current as that was back before I added a number of pretty big details such as the flap hinge canoes, and engine oil coolers.  I'm chewing on the airfile mostly at the moment.

Looks pretty good to me! I would love to add that to my collection. Hope to see it out soon.
Keep up the good work.

I spent a lot of time trying to learn how to use the building programs so I could make one, but I was never able to understand them good enough.

Ahh yes - I was about to say that Dennis Simanitis was working on one for FS9, I'm glad to see it's been released.

(Note to self:  Must ask Dennis to include Simviation for his releases)
