I'm a fickle Simmer so my "Favorite Aircraft" seldom remains my favorite for very long. Right now it's this little gem:

The Sequoia Falco F.8L
Original Model by Chris Lampard
Last revisions by Massimo Tacolli

I have upped the resolution on both the exterior and interior. VC is almost completely redone aside from a few small areas that aren't noticeable anyway. The sound was aliased to the Cessna 172. I changed that to something I had.
The livery shown is registered in Australia, was built in 1992 and has a Lycoming IO 360 engine. I am using it in FSX, although it is not a native FSX model everything seems to function just fine. I will attempt to stick it in P3D_V4 for testing, but I expect it will fail, lol.

Just a quick note. . . .Yes it failed the P3D_Test. Actually as soon as I selected it to load. . . .the Sim locked up, lol. . .back to FSX!

That's a shame - lovely work. Oddly enough the Falco didn't lock up (4.2) when I tried but it was completely invisible!

It is a shame. I guess it's a good thing I don't know how to convert models to native FSX. If I did, as little actual flying as I do now. . .I wouldn't be doing any, lol.
