Wow that's cool! I've never seen the DC-3 on floats. Someone should be able to do the floats. They don't look too hard. I'd offer to do them, but I don't really have the time. I take it your using the DC-3 file that came with the FSX SDK.

we have an update to the MAAM-SIM DC3 / XC-47 that is freeware (below).

http://www.simviation.com/fscommercial2.htm (top of the page)

FS2004 Mid-Atlantic Air Museum Simuations Douglas XC-47C Amphibian addon for the R4D/DC-3 Package This free add-on aircraft is for purchasers of the MAAM-SIM R4D/DC-3 for FS2004, only. You must have the R4D/DC-3 installed in your FS2004 BEFORE you attempt to install this add-on. The XC-47C self-installer will not run unless the full R4D/DC-3 package is present. You may purchase the CD from the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum On-line Store at www.maam.org. All proceeds from CD sales go to support the museum and its restoration programs. Bill Rambow, Jan Visser, Fred Banting, Rob Young, Howard Sodja, and Mark Beaumont MAAM-SIM. 5MB

I think i found something for you that is FREEWARE and is A LOT better than the crappy default DC3...... scroll BELOW "MAAM-SIM ISSUED UPGRADES AND ADD-ONS" -- 11 DOWN. (Picture~ http://www.maam.org/flightsim/enhance/XC47.jpg )

The Douglas XC-47C # 42-5671 was a 1943 prototype attempt to create a viable amphibious version of the workhorse C-47 by adding a pair of Edo 78 floats. Its flight performance, especially the takeoff, was less than spectacular, and a trial with rocket assisted takeoff proved unsatisfactory. Historical accounts vary on the number of amphibian Gooney Birds that were actually put into service, although 150 sets of floats were reportedly built for field installation. Most authorities cite five aircraft, some of which were said to have been used in the Pacific and Alaskan theaters for air-sea rescue missions. You must have the R4D/DC-3 package installed in FS2004 before you can install this add-on. By MAAM-SIM
