    You are spot on about the old white wooden building located next to the FBO building. That was torn down. If you remember on the South Side of the Base where the majority of the schools were was S-1 (South 1) which was the NAS Admin building. The old building was torn down (was big attempt to save it for history) but the flag pole was removed and relocated in front of the FBO office at the KNQA Regional airport.

    Don, The tower doesn't have any beacon on it. I have tried to contact the author and sent him pictures of the real tower with beacon on it but I get no response. Here is his contact info Tom Neubauer email: tneubauer12@yahoo.com ; maybe if enough of us old NATTC Millington people contact him and ask him if he could add a rotating white/green beacon on it he just might. He told me "To change the tower wouldn't be hard but there's no other tower that looks like the one at the real airport and I'm fairly sure all FSX default towers have that beacon" If I had the gift to make the edit I would. But at least it looks a lot more accurate then the stock one. The old AIMD hanger is depicted correctly and just before Brac 93, I worked at AIMD hanger as a sandcrab(beach-creepie) ; An A-4 hanger built for VMA-124/MAG 42 is also depicted ; that hanger now has private A/C and the signage on the outside top reads TULSAIR Beechcraft. Also, SWIFT truck training academy is located there, you will see some semi's near the east end of the runway.

    Paul, Is this replacement model file incorporated in the complete package or just a separate file? If separate, I am unable to locate it. Thanks again :applause:

    I experimented with the various ShockWave landing light offerings and this one seem to work out the best; At least for me. I used the wrong aircraft designation in the title and tried to change it to read CH-53 vice MH-53. I suggest that you make backup of aircraft.cfg file in case you want to restore to the original landing lights: light.13= 5, 20.79, 2.15, -4.08, Fx_shockwave_landing_light ; Landing light <<<< this one and next three were // out in original lights section. light.14= 5, 20.79, -2.15, -4.08, Fx_shockwave_landing_light ; Landing light light.15= 5, 18.55, 2.15, -4.88, Fx_shockwave_landing_light ; Landing light light.16= 5, 18.55, -2.15, -4.88, Fx_shockwave_landing_light ; Landing light

    Thanks for the tip, it worked! I am enclosing the light section to show what I did to alleviate the issue. I wish that Virtavia aka Alphasim would QA check their work before putting a FOR SALE sign on it. I mean, with other commodities, you can tell BEFORE you purchase if it's got issues and decide to buy it or not. With software, I guess it's buy it on good faith and if its flawed; you hold your hat in hand and hope you can contact the DEV and tell 'em of issues and hope they are receptive to it all. At any rate, thank very much for your suggestion. Most helpful. Wish Virtavia would of stepped in and advised me, I know they read SOH and read my problem but Nooooooooo, it's kaa-ching....see 'ya!!!!! $$$$$$$$$$$$$ It's all 'bout the Benjamins!!!! They don't even advertise an email address, they use to when they were Alphasim. //Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing

    I just purchased the Virtavia's MH-53 and was doing some night flying and noticed that only the pilot's cockpit lights will illuminate. When I hit the "L" key, the co-plots light will come on, briefly then go out leaving only the pilots lights working. Is there some kind of fix for this or what? I closed out FSX and did a refire and chose the MH-53 only to have the same issues. Any one else experience this?

    Thanks for the HU on the Sale Price, I just purchased it today and I really enjoy this one. I had just deleted a previous post here about experiencing black cockpit glass as the light bulb turned on and I copied one of the original texture files to the repaints and shazam!!!! I can see out of the windshield or as the Brits say windscreen. OT I like to watch this show called Wheeler Dealers on Cable TV; it is a show done over in England and I get a kick out out of listening to the two locals over there as they open the Boot of the car and replace the rubber that has "perished" around the windscreen. Sometimes they will refer to there local currency and a Quid or Pound. Guess it is the same here with the buck and Dollar.
