Ive been searching for a while for a working FSX model of Howard Hughes famous Spruce Goose. Ive seen a few posts about it but I cant find any download links and I know that there is one that works in FSX as shown at the Flightsim forums. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Last time I tried a few different Spruce Gooses, from different sites, the Gauges and some of the cockpit textures didn't show up, least not in my FSX Gold/ Acceleration using windows 7 on a 64 bit machine, so, I gave up and sent the ol' Goose away on another permanent journey !!

The ones I was trying with were FREEWARE tho.

After downloading, I got some that a pop up window would come up and say these gauges are no longer supported and are for FS 98,,,  and the prop spin textures were a Blurr too. even tho it said it was for 2004.

The other one I tried wasn't complete or something, only about 1/2 the plane showed up,, some files missing or something,,, 

After that I kinda gave up on that particular aircraft,, and went on finding more unique aircraft and theres a lot of great older vintage aircraft out there  !!!

 

Please do NOT link images, it slows the forums down for other users.
