I recently e-mailed Chuck Dome asking if he was thinking of producing an FSDS2 Duke B60 (I have his excellent FSDS version).

In an effort to persuade him to do so, I'm working on a new panel for it. This is a glimpse of progress so far. Obviously there's a long way to go yet.

Thanks guys

Hopefully it will be when it's finished. I need to do some work on the bitmap which isn;t my strong point really.

I'm trying to keep this as realistic as possible (which is a change from my usual fantasy panels like my Baron).

I'll post again when it's done. Not entirely sure I'm going to be able to publish it though. I have hundreds of gauges but no idea where most of them came from so if I can't track them down, I risk upsetting someone who doesn't what their gauge distributed. Roll Eyes

Final version:

Chuck Dome has, I'm VERY pleased to say, agreed to do an FSDS2 version of the Duke B60 now.

I'm bumpin this back for a reason. It's not the shameless quest for compliments Grin

- it's just that a couple of people have asked about alternatives to the Baron for RTW trips.

One of my 2 recommendations is Chuck Dome's excellent FSDS Beechcraft Duke B60. The panel that comes with it is, shall we say, not as good as the plane itself,

, so this panel will be available when I get around to uploading it if anyone's interested.

It does use some FS2002 pro gauges, but before I release it, I'll do an alternative with no default Pro gauges. Should look roughly the same.

I would love to get that panel...when/if it becomes available, please let me know where I can get it!!!

Looks good and Thanks!

Thanks Cherokee

I'm toying with adding a Duke yoke with similar specs to the one in my Baron Panel. As soon as I've done that and got an FS2002 Standard version , I'll upload it here and at Flightsim.com. (Never uploaded here before but if I can't work it out, I'll come back for advice

)
