Could anyone make a Fairey Rotodyne for FSX? It was a helicopter/ plane which could perform vertical takeoff, then fly like a plane.

I've tried it.  It's not bad, just a few problems, like most of the guages not being compatable, and needing a new sound file.  Oh, the main roter visual effect disappears when you fly past clouds.

Takes forever to land as a chopper too.  Much easier to land like a conventional AC
