    What?! No bikini clad supermodels sunbathing on the deck?

    Looks really great Pam:salute:

    I kind of liked the rainbow version you posted earlier.
    Expect banging, belching and an occasional manly fart as you roar down the runway at full power. (I have found that the engine can make similar noises)

    Okay, I admit it - the "bikini" in the last comment drew me to this post.

    That being said, that is REALLY COOL! I can only imagine the complexity of modeling the bridge and functions on such a craft. Very nice!

    Pam, were you able to resolve the issue you had getting P3D to show the same model as FSX?

    Never mind, I just saw your post at FSDeveloper.

    Yeahhh.. I've been pondering my plan of attack for making the VC for about three days now. its a Bi-Level bridge with a pilot at the wheel down inside and the captain and officers directly above on the flying bridge ( is that the correct term? ). The big question is whether or not the optical rang finder is tied into the steering mechanism or not. heh. more research ::lol:; the biggest issue i see model wise is down inside. Th pilot cant see anything. He's got just this tiny little window in front of him and thats it. He cant see anything except whatever that big white post is and the forward gunner out of it. I caant imagine how they could have guided it into a slip or pull alongside another boat without having some way f steering it up on top. As always. if someone knows anything about this, i would be very grateful to learn it..
