I'll try and see If I can get and answer here   ,which I have posted in aircraft & 3d design..

I'm making an MD 83 ,got couple questions

how are these are being hold??. I know in the 707 and 727 and default FSX 737  there where in the edges and even the citations like this for example



but from what I see HERE and some other photos ,these parts are completely separated, so what it holding them?


,I can't see what does it make it moves 



I can see little sticks in here,from the flaps to the wings (like the lead edge) But I'm not sure

Does anybody know where are the Taxi lights,I know there are two bulls in the landing gear ,but most of the planes I see have Two pairs of bulb landing and taxi

You have no idea ,How much My Doubt have cost me , see ,the animation did never have sense to me , ,in all my jet models ,there always been this Unknown too me matter ,if you see the 707 ,citations etc the animation of the flaps are something that looks more beautiful than realistic ,I'm trying to be very accurate this time ,Now I understand the way they move and HOW they move ,because this was the pain in the but HOW THEY MOVE? and not to make something that moves down without sense.
This is why I said in the  "I assume"in the circled shot because I began to look another models trying to understand this time this movement

Thank you

Alex. I found this guide which might be of some help. http://www.airlinercafe.com/page.php?id=396

It has a nice close-up photo of that pressure relief vent you were discussing in another topic.

Wow, very interesting article Hagar. There's so much stuff to get right! I don't know how you do it Alrot.

thank you Joe
Boy!! If I knew that if I ask In Real Aviation Forum I would get answers so explicits and fast my models would be more accurate ..Didn't bother anymore to ask several and several things I though this was exclusively for Aircraft & 3d Design area ,If you would see my First 727-200 release ,I Personally Invented a thrust reverse nonexistence mechanism    Iask and ask,no answer,not because they didn't want too ,I mean the people that visit this area of the forum ,They know more about 3d max gmax and FSDS procedures ,as so my other place which is FFDS which is Felix's site, 
there are many funny things in some of my models ,The recent Citation x Twist too much its wings The wingflex animation,and many more funny stuff.
This happens to be because I have never seen an airplane Very close , and mostly are those who passes over my head  at FL300
I bought this year the PMDG 747 and seen many procedures in youtube ,Now I have a closer idea what is a APU system among many other things ..
There was this Guy who I can't remember his name His from Sweden or Swedish  that actually help me a lot in the Citations ,Its been a while I haven't see him anymore.. 
I'm about to start its painting ,then there would be the most difficult part which I kept to say Its the VC ,gauges ,upper and down throttle console, its twice as hard than the exterior , and take me a lot of time

Thanks you gentlemen
