Hi. I want to explore the skies more peacefully than a glider and very, very stealthy.  SmileyI think it would be cool if someone built a flyable bird. On the contact points on the .cfg, could someone make it be able to land easily without crashing? In FSX, there are birds when you turn up the settings, but I can't find the file in the animals or autogen or scenery folders. Angry If someone can, can you PLEASE make it flyable? Thanks so much guys! Cool
 

I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.

There's an eagle that is flyable, along with a flock of geese and a killer whale.

Yeah, I downloaded it, and it is just grey with flapping rectangles for wings. The geese don't have .cfgs and neither does the whale. I have no idea how to make them. Any suggestions? Undecided

Odd.  I just DL'd and extracted and all the files are present.  When you extract the .zip, you should have 4 folders: Animal SIM, Bald Eagle, GeesevForm, and Whale.  "AnimalSim" is a folder of saved  flights, and the other three go into your "aircraft" folder (for FS9) or "Airplane" folder for FSX.

There is a much better eagle for FS9 that might work in FSX. It will take me a while to find it.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
