There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Maybe if it's floating at the top of the tank...
'Brownside' down.
If the flight model is as good as they say, it's probably a 310 Vmc demo taken just a little bit too far. :d

These screenshots are for the free radio panel, which Bill is modeling into two panes in the radio stack where individual customers may custom tailor the radio stack to add freeware and payware avionics which they have already purchased separately.
In the panel screenshots I have attached, I have added some of the RealityX Garmin avionics which I have previously purchased. I say this carefully because I do not want anyone to get the wrong impression that this MilViz release will include any RealityX avionics. Again, the ones in these shots were my own purchase.
Still, it provides a nice example for what is possible. Additionally, except for the two radio stack areas, the rest of the panel featues Bill's very nice 3D instruments.
Of note is to see the throttle pedestal complete with trim wheels and a very accurate modeling of the real 310R fuel cogs.
It even includes the word-for-word placards for fuel operations and the template on the cogs!
The red livery also has a highly polished surface and you can really be mezmorized watching the ailerons pivot with the autopilot's input. Watching the cloud reflections off them is quite satisfying!

Tom,
I told you what would happen if you kept flying that version with 1,000hp engines each side!

Bill's default 3D panel includes both a GNS 530W (COMM/NAV 1) and a GNS 430W (COMM/NAV 2).
Plus, with the free radio stack panel, you can add in any avionic type you own.
Cheers,
Ken
My only mild criticism is that whatever pattern is being overlaid on the instrument panel, carpets, and upholstery to lend them a worn look seems a bit overdone to me - almost as if the entire interior were breaking out in a rash. From what I see of the base textures beneath, it doesn't look as though this wear layer is really needed. Or maybe it just needs to be turned down a bit. In every other respect, it looks like it'll be a winner.
Agree with Bill here. If I got into a plane with seats that dirty first thing I'd do would be to check how hairy the hands of the pilot are, second thing would be to put something over the seats.
Apart from that it's looking really good. I like the free panel idea for the VC avionics.
