This may be a long shot, but you could try JakesF-14

He might give it a go when the Cheetah is done. Wink

It's a thought, I'll ask him. Thanks Shane.

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

The project I will never finish. Do you think it would look better it I completely erased it off my hard drive? Grin

Just kidding! I'm not deleting it. Maybe if Jakes says yes to making one, I'll send it to him if he wants it, although I'm sure he could do better. And he models for FS9. It wouldn't be a true FSX model if he did it.

As long as he uses the FSX part names, he could send you the raw file, and then you could export it in your copy. Wink

I have both versions of Gmax, and had no problems exporting the same mdl files to either FS9 or FSX.

You can have the FS9MakeMDL and FSXMakeMdl installed on the same pc, and export from Gmax. I try to do my models for both sims. The main reason I am doing FS9 is because I have FS9 on my notebook. Then just adapt the model for FSX (yeah i know about the Jbizz.... my FSX is not working...again..after installing a few addons and need to solve that)

As I said to Shane and Larry, My next project is the Rooivalk, but Only if I can get enough info. And if I can get enough info about the Piaggio P-136 L1 I will consider it. Maybe then try to get someone like Brett Henderson and Fr Bill to help with panel and aerodynamics.....

I bet Sean can help with the info on the Rooivalk. And maybe some of the ones that said they would like to have the Piaggio could help with the research for it. How about it guys?

Bill Ortis and Lionheart Productions are fine people. I bought two of his aircraft (Epics) and could not load install them, mainly thru my own ignorance. He simply suggested I wipe the aircraft and gave me a refund. I have since solved my install problems (sometimes) and have recently purchased his epic victory and epic dynasty, both great to fly and both unusual airtcraft designs.

I'll snoop around and see if I can find anything on it but I have a feeling the internet will be my main source.

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..

Sifted through a little bit for Rooivalk info. I think Jakes is in the best position both geographically and resource-wise to get the good details.
It's not a very widely used helicopter.

It's been a while and we have some new members, so I thought I would bump this up, just in case. I still want one.

I just took a good look at Piaggio, and I'm wondering, what's that black thing sticking out of the side? Huh

I thought it looked a little high for that and could not see any lines below so I checked. You are entirely correct.
