You can if you use Model Converter X  Wink to create the BGL (or MDL or DDS file)

I've swapped the above photo for one without the lamp post and menu bar ( I knew I had a better one).

Thanks for looking. Cool

Yes as G.K. says you can with ModelConverterX.

These Tutorials Might help:

Build your House with Sketchup:

And:

ModelConverterX:

And before anyone says that Sketchup isn’t any good, it’s great for beginners & I am currently building a Model of HMS Glorious in Sketchup for FSX.
