That's what I thought. I was hoping it was something else though as the change I was going to make (for the MATS livery) was to replace it with the padded "diamond" design soundproofing you see in many Military Cargo Airplanes. Can't do that though because the aluminum covers other areas besides just the walls.
Thanks!

Hi, first i want to thank you Milton and your team for making Native model of Howard planes for FSX/P3d. Today i started my first flight using Howard 500, when i press engine start switch in cockpit, plane acts very crazy, it turns around and crashes. Is there any solution for a safe engine start? I use Prepar3d v4.5
Toni,
Ensure your prop, mixture and throttle levers are positioned properly, then try starting the left engine first if the right side start repeats the issue.
I have had it happen twice but only when I failed to properly position my prop levers. I always start the right engine first.
I've been waiting for this and it was well worth the wait!!! Thanks to everyone involved. Brings back some old memories.....
Oh yes! I think I'm in love. I've got some paint schemes in mind already.

Marvellous!...
Thanks Milton and all involved.

Ed, did you get the sidewalls you wanted to show? I like the look of the lighter quilted pattern.My "tweaked" VC. I just need to find where the side walls are coming from so I can update those also
I must already have your tweaked panel textures in next to latest H500 as these look sharper so shouldn’t need to re-send/upload/re-download but not sure which ones exactly I need to copy and paste across to the 350. Gauges also seem clearer in the same (previous version FSX H500 native) model - is that also possible?
Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.
Actually no need to respond as I found your tweaks here in the Library

There's a really nice article about the Howard 500 in the latest AOPA Pilot magazine (May 2019).
Thank you Milton and team!

Thanks for all the comments; greatly appreciated.
We have two more Howard type variants in the paint shop - a Trigear and a taildragger actually based on the Lockheed L-18.
The Trigear is really a sweet ground handler and flyer.

Looking great, Milton! So far, so good on the Native FSX Howard. Smooth as chunky peanut butter

TuFun identified a mapping issue some time ago and I forgot to correct it in the Howard 500 release.
All five Howard 500 models are affected.
I have corrected the main archive but for those of you who have already downloaded and installed the FSX native Howard 500, I have a small fix for you including only the five model folders.
Download, unzip and copy the replacement model folders to your Howard 500 FSX folder replacing existing.

I found in one of the howard 500 zip files (Jan 2019) a thumbnail of this texture but not the texture.
