Okay, let me ask what CAD program would be used to create and/or modify an FSX .mdl or .bgl file?

Gmax1.20 (free) , Blender (free) , 3DSMax7/8 (money); will all create and export models

Create? Any of the above.
Modify? A very risky area. Best avoided.

Oh I understand completely and it is NOT my intention to modify anything that belongs to somebody else (wouldn't know how...). I meant if I create something, and then need to modify it.

Great, I have Gmax and Blender and have access to 3DS Max.
