Anyone know of a Boeing B-47 Stratojet for FSX? Or one which could be converted from FS9 to FSX?

Yes. There are a few B-47s in the FS9 download section, but I think they all need serious gauge work. I have the "E" model loaded, but haven't fiddled with it's panel or gauges yet. I have at least two others in FS9. I'll have to load them into FSX to see which of the three are more easily adaptable.

The B-47 on Military Page 10 is the lesser of two evils, comes with two paints, UASF SAC and USAF Weather Service. There were only two or four gauges that it didn't seem to like, but the panel looked good, even if it's a little ahead of it's time ("glass cockpit type ADI, HSI...., and lots of digital readouts) Needs sound, and it's engine smoke effect is rotated 90 degrees. (Common for FS9+>FSX)

The VC's not the bes either. It's a little "out of focus".

The other one looks (Military Page 64) much better, but I loaded that one so long ago, I don't remember if I had to add sound or twiddle with the smoke, and it panel (2d or VC) doesn't hold a candle to the one from "Page 10"

But from a simple "I'd like a B-47" standpoint, the one on page 10 is the better of the two choices, if for no other reason than not having to fool too much with the panel.

Of course, you could always download both, and swap the panel from the page ten package with the panel from the page 64 download, and add sound, if needed, and tweak the smoke.
