Very nice aircraft, and a gratis one at that.

AH Dove Emerald Solomon Islands Scenery - P3DV5.3 +AS
Still a classic and in my humble opinion one of the best aircraft produced by AH. Worked nicely in FSX - works perfectly in P3DV5.3

Well there was a lot of creative stuff done in FSX and a lot of it goes into P3DV5 and works. This is Earl Watkins AVP34 scenery (AVP3401.zip) with the tenders and a whole bunch of stuff in the Okinawa region and other places works nicely in P3DV5. The Aerosoft Catalina is also good in P3DV5 as well. It is just EA in P3D making the Martins look black they are good too as AI.

The two seat Garwood Hunter - nice! P3DV5.3
Looking for Heinkels.

Ex-Alphasim/Virtavia freeware. I did a conversion to P3D native. Currently, I am using the Aerosoft Bell UH 1D cockpit which is matching very nice.
It's my fist conversion, so I will do more experiments with the Alphasim/Virtavia original panel too. If there is some interest, I can do a release, because I got Virtavias permission for a freeware release last week...
AH-9 is done as well...
Next on my list will be the Simshed Westland Wessex which is been missing for too long since FS9 in my opinion...
Best regards, Manfred.
Mt Hagen in PNG to Port Moresby. A real struggle to get to 10000 ft in a c337 cant imagine how poor the performance was in a 336 (fixed gear 337 with lower horsepower). Got to hand it to those guys. LSALT about F180 down in the weeds in a little piston all the way.
Carebado C337 unpublished Ansett Paint - yep Ansett ran these around PNG for a few years!

Outward bound from Cairns.
Shame this version missed out on repaints.

Wombat666 - Nice screens that's a view I once knew well. Yes the only other repaint I ever found for the JF/AH DHC3 was of all things for the RAAF Otter they used out at Maralinga! One of those curious things that with FSX in its late days all in close proximity to one after another VirtuCol released an Otter, then JF/AH released an Otter and then Milviz released their Otter. Both the AH and Milviz versions were diabolical to paint which also explains why not many paints about for either! At least the Qantas and TAA liveries were done for both - easy to satisfy me sometimes.
Back to PNG- works and looks good in P3D with Holgermesh and ORBX Jackson/Kokoda and Tapini added there are a few other good sceneries for PNG (Mt Hagen, Lae and Madang) but very little otherwise - would have thought it was a bush flyers paradise. Oh and there is no island of Samarai in the sim (FSX or P3D) go figure! Nor is the Wau airport in any scenery - how can you not fly PNG without going to WAU! They used to run DC-3s in there!
Having a go at creating an aerodrome for WAU in PNG. Got the location right, the layout ok but this making a good sloping runway is a real problem. First pass anyway. Least I can go to WAU now!
FWIW WAU had/has a 12 degree upslope (that is pretty steep) OFT but if I flatten I get the cliffs at the end not rolling steep hills. If I don't flatten the runway floats and if I try the elevation point thing whole thing goes haywire. Hmmmm lot to learn about this airport design business.
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.

Wombat666 got me started down the TAA rabbit hole. So many good ones.
