    Personal ride






    I came back to this one and made a repaint to have a personal ride. Still a great plane! Thanks A2a.

    Despite its age and errors it is still a very nice model. I think Martin "ICDP" Catney's excellent paintkit has contributed a lot to the success of this model.

    I think most repainters have their personal rides. At least I have several. This is one of my favourites

    Complimented Chris Tunistra on his paints awhile back. He sent me a personalized paint in response.

    We have discussed here several times how to get the Twin Bonanza into FSX but without the solid prop disks showing badly. Upshot was the source code for the model is required. Did you have any success with it in FSX>

    One of mine: The FSX native redux F-80 as P-80B-5-LO, 45-8800 "Miss Vickie". Totally fictional paint scheme. I've got several more personal ones. Just happened to be flying this one over the Himalayas last night.

    I think there's some shared DNA here. Alabeo Gee Bee Z with one of my favorite paint schemes. I did it for whenever we decide to hold the London - Melbourne MacRobertson event again. It's a nod to the Gee Bee R-6 QED which was flown in the original 1934 race in "Lucky Strike" green and red while still maintaining the usual Gee Bee type livery. Probably one of my all time favorite aircraft to fly. A bit of a handful if you don't keep one eye open and will bite if you don't stay ahead of it. My poor screenshot skills don't do it justice.

    I'm not normally a Michigan State fan, but my son is. My daughter is. And so is my wife. Ironically enough when I want to fly an ultralight this one goes up more than the other repaints (and yes, I do have a U of M Skyseeker in Maize/Azure Blue).

    OK so assume it will not work at all in P3D v4?

    Wheels disappear, animations don't work gauges aren't compatible. I've tried, and tried. Modified the panel.cfg with all new gauges, P3D 4 still displays the original panel, and I can't figure out where it is getting it. The original panel.cfg is nowhere in P3D 4, that I can find. With the same panel.cfg, the new gauges show up in P3D3. Scratching head and mumbling...

    Can't recall, did anyone ever convert the model to native FSX?

    No, unfortunately. That's why things disappear in P3D4.
