FSX/FSX-SE Aircraft and Panel Design Forum - How To

This site reflects availability of this panel. However, it is not available for download. Does anyone know how I can track down thispanel for download or contact the author to inquire as to when and where it will be available?Thanks.http://www.248th.com/416th/metal/msfs/md90/md90_panel.htmIf you delete the last "md90_panel.htm," you will get to the directory and see the panel is not listed for download.

When these "T-Tail" aircraft are parked, why is the rear elevator and/or the rudder turned or left upright? It makes the aircraft look wierd like in this shot:Click here: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/227521/L/I am a stupid person so can someone explain this to me? View all my repaints by clicking this link!

With numerous tips from the helpful people here, I am still progressing on my first test project. Attached is a shot taking it out for a test spin. This can be frustrating as well as very rewarding once you have solved a major problem. Thanks again for all the help!!Bob C.

This may have been asked before.......but, I cant help it. Shes a stubby thing, but nice.http://www.airliners.net/open.file/268281/M/Aloha!

hi!anyone know of/thinking about designing an F-18E/F? i've looked in all the usual places & no joy. commercial stuff/links would be great aswell!!cheers

Got a question regarding GMAX and cutting holes. I am trying to cut intake holes in a cowling, and they look fine in GMAX, but when viewed in FS2002, it looks as if they were cut with a chain saw. I am using the Boolean subtract, which seems to work fine, but...Any comments would be appreciated.Bob C.

I have the SCASM source file for a Socata TB20GT. Is there anyway to use the information from that to get a 'leg up' in building this a/c in GMAX?It sure would be nice, since all the vector points are already defined, and it would only need a bit of 'tweaking' to make it really outstanding!BillAVSIM Ombudsman

Hello, I'm new to this forum so I wonder if u guy have any md-82 or 727 picture so I could look at it, thanks! Many thanks

Hello,well I just started to try around with sounds... Chose dooSound, coz it sounds better without an additional DLL... But here's my prob: dooSound is initialized and killed like described in sd2gau13.zip, PlayDS function for testing in th gauge callback (gauge is invisible). Now I'm getting the following errors:Warning W8065 sound.c 38: Call to function 'InitDS' with no prototype in function gauge_cbWarning W8065 sound.c 54: Call to function 'CloseDS' with no prototype in function gauge_cband finally, hardly visible...Error: 'E:BORLANDBCC55BINDOOFSSOUND.LIB' contains invalid OMF record, type 0x21 (possibly COFF)Duh! :-hmmm Any help is greatly appreciated.Cheers! :-wave…

Guys,I'm repainting a Concorde in British Airways Union Flag colours and have a small problem with a texture which is covering the visor bay when the visor is down, this means I cannot view the visor in it's down possition from out side the aircraft. I have seen this texture removed on a previous repaint. Attemps to contact it's author have been unsuccessful. I hope some of you may be able to assist me. Check the visor bay area on the picture below.http://flightcraft.avsim.net/Screenshots/ConcordeFive.jpgBest Regards,Adam NardoneFlightCraft

Is there a real Airbus pilot around here?Or a maintenance engineer who knows the Airbus aircrafts?As I am working on an upgrade of my A320/330/340 panels (to make them more realistic), I have some very specific questions about the throttle management on these aircrafts:1) When A/THR mode is engaged, the throttle lever is supposed to be positioned on a specific notch: CL (climb), FLX (flex) or TOGA. What if the lever is positioned somewhere else? What if it is positioned somewhere in the area marked A/THR (between 0 and CL notch)?(see the attached picture)2) If you want to disarm the A/THR mode, you can press the A/THR button on the upper panel OR press the red button on s…

Hello to everyone.Can anyone tell me where i can find a good manual, or help files, and what do i need to start making my own repaints???cheers

In june I found a post regarding a new 727 panel in development by Richard Probst and Charles Fox but, till today, I haven't read any news.Does someone knows if that wonderful panel is still in development and even when it will be released ??The original post is here: Original Post (screenshots are no longer available).Hope someone will answer with some news.Morpheus

Hi,I have install the the panel for B707 of Paul Goldring (pg7072k2)but the freguencies from Nav1 and Nav2 not changing.What I do wrong? ThanksFriendlyPaul

As of 1/1/03, Skyway Airlines will be changing their name to Midwest Connect and in 2004 they will start getting their erj's (getting 135s, 140s and 145s). Is there a painter out there that would be willing be paint one for fs2k2. Attached is a rendition of what the 328Jet will look like, but the paint scheme will be the same for the erj's.

I have downloaded all the available Britannia Tui 767-300's that I can get my hands on, but none of them have reflections!? Take a look at this pic:http://www.airliners.net/open.file/256281/L/That shows how much better the aircraft would look with reflections.How do I add reflections to the repaint, or has anyone got hold of a Britannia Tui 767-300 that reflects?

Can someone please tell me what this is and where I can find a larger version??

It took it's first flight today....www.eclipseaviation.comIt'd be a great project--complete with virtual cabin, passenger wing & control surface views, etc.... Abacus has a FSDS Eclipse, but it'd be great to see something in GMAX that's freeware, with reflective textures.-John

Any suggestions for great sim sites for superior FS 2002 DC-9's, MD 80 & 90 Series aircraft?Thank you.

Hi,Would anyone have Charles Fox's current eMail address ... I wanted to have a chat re the following ...Perhaps someone else may have an answer on this?I run WinXP and FS2002.Whenever I use your AAB727 or a KC135 Pacer Crag / B707 panel, my Flt Sim occasionally freezes. It generally happens if the aircraft is selected prior to the flight planner being used etc.However, if I try operating with multiplayer mode, Squawk Box etc., it always freezes when I use either of these 2 aircraft (which is a pity because they are my favourite to fly). If I select the B727 or KC135 / B707 first, then the system often freezes just by trying to select multiplayer connect from within FS. I…

Hello, I need some help. I built an A320 cockpit and I am usingthe Project Airbus A320s. I need the Flaps settings to be 5 positionsinsted of 6. (0,1,2,3,FULL) I have chage the settind in the FS Aircraft Editor, and now the flaps work perfect with the flapspanel I have from AGT. But the aircraft dynamics have change and isa bit hard to fine tune. After playing around with the settings,the aircraft still a bit unstable on pitch. It oscillates up anddown with AP on during an ILS and IAS is not well maintain. Can someone please help me on this one. I have tried a lot of settings, but this is my first time working with aircraft dynamics.Or if there is someone who could be so…
