Hi, all you prop enthusiasts out there...!
Here is a pic of the Beech 18G for use with FS 2004!
Taking off from Los Angeles, (KLAX).
...It's an FS 2002 plane, but it works FANTASTIC in FS 2004...!
It makes a pleasant alternative to the default DC3 for anyone, who like me, (with dodgy eyesight!), is an enthusiastic radio Nav/Com/ADF/Auto-pilot twiddler, and have difficulties in reading the digits and tuning the "old-fashioned" dials on the DC3..!
The Beech uses the "normal" radios..lovely...!
...and with careful adjustment of the throttle, prop pitch, mixture and trim controls, an economical cruise speed of 200+ knots is easily obtainable!
It also has a very nice "Virtual Cockpit"..!
...and just listen to the sounds, (in the Sound Folder)...WOW...!
With thanks for the guidance from Ivan, (Aircraft Wanted Forum), it can be found at Avsim, search for >>

(Dont forget to also download the "patch" as well,which corrects the external prop animation, etc. Note in my pic, it hasn't been installed yet!).
Have fun with a lovely old plane...!
Los Angeles, (KLAX).
Landed at Big Bear City, for re-fueling (L35).
(It's a shame that the fuel pump locations don't appear in FS Navigator now, for FS 2004...Buggar..)...!
Cheers all...
Paul....oohhh...lovely radials...dribble-dribble...!
