I still want a Piaggio P-136 L1 (see my sig), but now I want it for FSX. And though Dino quality freeware with a VC would be nice, payware would be fine too. That's how bad I want one. I can't believe an aircraft this beautiful, with such graceful lines has never been built for FS. Wonder if I could talk Aerosoft into doing it?
If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

If it hasn't been done already a hundred times over, by several dozen people, then most payware companies won't touch it.
I mean, why have cool obscure planes, when we can have another 737, Cessna Citation, or Piper Cub?
Originality of the addon plane choice died with FS9.
What we need are a new breed of Mike Stone's and Kazunori Ito's.
If I see another Boeing tube get released and touted as the greatest thing since sliced bread, I'll puke.
But then again, FS is a
very
trendy hobby sometimes.

You could try seeing if Mario Noriega would do it. It may have to be for FS2004, but he's been responsible for almost every other Piaggio addon released so far.

Well said Shane. And you know how I feel about tubes. Sure I like to fly a F-14 or similar sometimes, but mainly, I just want to fly single and twin props, low and slow or slower. I did just buy a Kodiak, but it's still what I consider to be in the slow category. It's not a Super Otter, but it's as close as I can get in payware. And I have not found one that works properly in FSX, including the prop thingy. I do like the vc and panel though. It's just the exterior that is not as attractive as the Otter. I don't expect to even get an answer, let alone results, but I did send Aerosoft an email asking about the chances. Sometimes you just get lucky. Maybe Sean's suggestion might yield something.

Thanks Sean.
I'll see if I have his email in a readme somewhere.
Edited:
Found his address in a P-180 readme and sent him a 'request'. But I know how much work is involved, so I am not getting my hopes up. But it was worth a try.

I do hope you you get results Larry. This is one of the few aircraft I would brush the dust off my credit card for.
Flying with twins is a lot of fun..

Thanks Steve. I almost offered to pay him if he would build it. But I resisted the urge.
I still can't believe nobody every built one. I think it is the most beautiful amphibian I have ever seen. I've always liked gull wings, but this thing is just gorgeous. I would not change a single thing about it....
'cept the paint, of course.
Edited:
If I had the ability to build models, I could have built it, twice, in the time I spent looking for one.

Larry, you might be better off sending an email to Lionheart Creations rather than Aerosoft. Lionheart tend to do the more far out and unique aircraft designs whereas Aerosoft sticks to the more popular and well known aircraft. Just a thought.

Thanks Mitch, I'll try that.
I got a response from Mario. He has moved to the States to study (I'm guessing college) and does not presently have the time for designing. He did say it would be on his list if and when he gets the time. I thanked him for a quick response, welcomed him to American and said I understand. I also thanked him for all he has done for the community. He seems like a really nice guy.
Edited:
Got a quick response from Bill Ortis at Lionheart. He said he has about 10 aircraft in the que so he can't do it. He suggested posting a request at FS Developers. Aerosoft has not responded yet, and may not. Oh well.

If we could get about 10,000 more, we might get someone to build it.

It's getting very tempting to whip up a quick fuselage with wings and post the screenshot, and never finish it, just to tease you.

This may be a long shot, but you could try JakesF-14
He might give it a go when the Cheetah is done.
