O.K.

I have found out a couple things about myself, I can't program, design or paint aircraft using a computer.

What would I like to see? This. http://hemi_cuda_426.tripod.com/index.html

This is basicly a PA-31-350 Cheiftain, with Cheyenne engines, empanage and wings. I have any information needed ragarding this aircraft, including access to a few retired T1040 pilots.


If not, I'd imagine there are many simmers out there who would appreciate a quality Cheiftain or Navajo, or even a Cheyenne I, II or IIXL. I know there are a few PA-31's out there, but the fit and finish, and flying characteristics matches no PA-31 I've ever been in (and I've been in many, I grew up on these things, I love em).

I'm not one to go to payware, but from what I can tell, the FSD International Panther Navajo is the only Navajo I want to install currently, but I find it hard to pay $30 on an add-on for a $40 program. I had/have all the currinet PA-31's and all of them were uninstalled after only 15 minutes of flying them.

If you would like to take point on this, I would be willing to help in any fashon I could. This is something I've been looking for since FS2000 Pro.

Well, I bit the bullet and got the FSD International Panther Navajo. Boy am I in seventh heaven. I haven't flown another plane since I got it. I even found a repaint in Frontier Flying Service livery, which is where I currently am employed at.

I still urge somebody to perhaps take on this project however, because it seems to be a lacking area in the flight simming world. There are already panels designed for the PA-31's, so it wouldn't be NECCESSARY to design another.
