I've been wondering, has anyone out there ever had the idea to create Howard Hughes' "Spruce Goose" for Flight Simulator?

My cousin  worked on the restoration of it in Newport, OR for two years and I think it'd be neat to have a detailed virtual version of it.

Any takers?

I wonder how detailed it is. Wink

My uncle has like, a couple dozen photos from when he and my cousin worked on the restoration team.

I have a few photos that he took - one showing a massive panel with close to sixty gauges  Shocked
