T28D R1820 86A engine

As real as you can get? Modern or vintage real? It's pretty common to see modern comms and a gps in restored aircraft. Now if you are going for factory original, that's a different story.

I guess I hate to say it, but I prefer more updated, modern avionics in old warbirds and military trainers.

But I'll take the T28 anyway she comes!

BTW I've always had problems getting my pilots to fit into the aircraft and usually end up having to downsize them a bit. Anyone with my Sierra will notice how the pilot and passenger actually have to duck their heads when the canopy is opened.

I was referring to a model from a different company :) I won't mention which one for fear of being tarred and feathered for critiquing payware. Yours look great.

In a perfect world, vintage aircraft should come with two cockpits, one that is original and the other with modern avionics and comms. That is a lot of extra work, especially when the instruments are 3D and not 2D gauges pasted to the panels.
