... so since Scott and I have this one close to ready for painting, we may try to get her out during the coming short, cold days of Winter. Scott had rewritten all the gauges in xml for FSX SP1 compatibility. She should port over okay but this is really built for FS9.

This is a substantially new exterior model of the de Havilland Dash 7 with some cabin changes and previous repaints are not compatible.

LOL Aaron. I have two weeks off before the holidays and lots of long weekends ahead so I have to do something.

I just took the Dash 7 into Concrete Muni from Snohomish over the mountains and then dive into the river valley. This Dash 7 has a neat ability to drop into beta range and brake the aircraft by the props. Handy when you need to drop 6000 feet in 5 miles. :d

Second screenie is flying north out of Hope, BC.

So this means there will be a dash 7 for fsx in the future?

Negative, it will be native FS9 but we will try to make it a workable FSX portover.
