most of the Time, when that happens to me - I usually swap "SPIN PROP" files or , "SpinPropT.BMP" files, just depends what the creator named the file ???

try looking for the SpinProp File in the Aircrafts Texture folder ???

It is a problem that occurs with most FS9 imports. The display order is incorrect I believe, its a part of the mdl, and cant be fixed. The only way around it is to change the "alpha" to make the prop almost invisible. but it will still have some affect on your scenery.

I see what you mean.
I dl'ed the fsx version, and that upload is surely not ok!

...

I tried with some other prop.bmp's instead of the propwash.bmp, but no luck yet.

Do you know the program DXTBmp? Not that easy, but it can make wonders.

This is about the best you can expect. As mjrhealth said earlier, this aircraft was originally created for FS9. The transparent prop disc is is defined in the MDL file & no amount of texture tweaking will correct how it displays in FSX.
