Thanks again for your input, guys, very helpfull to steer the VVC in the right direction so to speak.
The first ever ILS landing by an airliner already took place in the US in 1938.
Personally, i can not enjoy to virtually fly the DC-3 to the most if not under IFR conditions. I need to be able to see those needles move and follow them and take-off and land in any type of weather condition. If you ask me that's one of the major features that keeps virtual flight interesting and enjoyable. ( no GPS for me let alone FMC... ;-)
Yes, i know what you mean, Kelly, but the implementation of the radios proved rather difficult to stick to that. We just have to move up in time a decade or two, atleast for now. But, hey, 1950's/60's can still be called vintage, don't you think ?
Please don't take this the wrong way because I don't want to seem picky, believe me; but I just tumbled to the fact that the current panel seems to have an ils/vor in it (Right on top of things...). When would that have happened in the real world?

I was initially under the impression that this was meant to be a vintage (1940's) cockpit and am puzzled by the addition of the more modern nav aids.
