Thanks Don - Yes good news the Posky web site is back online! :jump:

While searching for some old Posky files, I found that the Sky Spirit 767 was converted to native FSX by Hiroshi Igami:

So you'll need the original FS9 767 version here to build a complete aircraft...

...or here for some more japanese airlines:

Here's a 767-300F cargo (model OSX763FV5_CF6-80C--LL.mdl). I'll merge it with the Captain Sim 767 interior (payware). You can try a Just Flight 757 Freemium interior merge (free!).

Hi,

First, copy the B747_400_interior model from the B747 and add this line to YAL-1 model.cfg
interior=B747_400_interior

Then copy/add the texture files to each YAL texture folder.

You can use the default 747 panel or just copy/add the VC section to the panel.cfg you're using.

Sometimes you need to restart FSX to see the effect of a change in a "model.cfg" file.

And you need to adjust the eyepoint in the "aircraft.cfg" file. No miracle here, you'll have to find the right eyepoint by trying, testing, reloading the plane, etc... For a Posky 747-400 with the default 747 VC it might be eyepoint=-32.500, -2.000, 11.100, not sure with the Yal...

Edit: The Yal 747 is not FSX native (OSYAL1A_V4.mdl), so this VC swap is not possible... Too bad... Only some 747-400 where converted to FSX... Here they are (scroll down):

And here:
http://sky.geocities.jp/SkySpirit2010/POSKY747-8FUpdate.html

Some are very nice! Don't give up yet! This is the FSX native 747-400 V4 (Skyspirit OSX748V4_GENX.MDL):

This is the FSX native 747-400F cargo (Posky OSX748FV4_GENX.MDL) :

This is the Airborne Laser Test Bed YAL-1A (FS9 only so far)... weird...

What about a YAL colored regular 747? Keep the YAL textures you already have, choose this native FSX Open Sky 747-400F here, merge the VC of your choice, et voilà !

Thanks to Hiroshi Igami for his dedication to keep the Posky heritage alive!

Looks nice with the grey option of the default 747 VC...

Always wondered if Hiroshi would at some point do an FSX model for the 767. No VC just didn't excite enough. This worked like a charm and the model is one of their very best. Thanks very much for the steer.
 
Anyone know If the posky AWAC is somewhere in FSX flaver. Im building up the CG force at Jim's KNGP.
 
Vonstroheim, where can the JASDF KC-767 base model(with textures, cfg/airfile, etc..). I've looked high and low and can't find the one you have posted in the screen shot. I did get the FSX version of the MDL file.

Download the "KC767J_Multiplayer Special Beta test IH27" here (SSPMKC767JV5_CF6-80C_IH27.ZIP) and change the mdl file with the one found here (in the 767 military section: OSXKC767J.MDL.ZIP).

Alternate japanese livery here (but intended for the Awacs version).

For VC swap procedure and panel options... sorry, too much to list... and it's a matter of taste (default 737, JF freemium 757, captain sim 767, etc...)

And remember, all the old Posky files were salvaged and are found here: http://poskyarchive.com/

Thanks!

Also, I already had the JF VC and other things preset in a quick build folder in case other variations came about. It runs and looks very good.
 
Hi

It seems that i cannot use the boom of the FSX KC767J model. Turning on the light with gear do not make any effect to the boom.
Is there any way to operate the boom for the FSX KC767 model?

thanks!
 
While Hiroshi Igami was busy on the 787, he took the time to build a 777-8X and 777-9X as well, with the new GenX engines... Very impressive... So far only available in a white livery, but 4 versions, 8X and 9X, FS9 regular and FSX native.

Get it here. Please note that this is not for the casual simmer, it's a do-it-yourself-work-in-progress kind of kit-aircraft... Posky style... Depicted here is the 777-8X (I fly it with the Captain Sim 777-200 VC...).

This is no winglets... The wing tips fold! Like a F/A18!
 
Repaints for the new Skyspirit 2013 Boeing 777-9X are coming slowly...

Dreamliner livery by Andy Nott (skyspirit_777_9x_house.zip @ flightsim).
Based on the FS9 777-9X model by Hiroshi Igami (ssp779x_i61.zip @ flightsim).

For FSX you need to swap the FS9 mdl file by this one: SSPX779XV2--L.MDL (SSPX779XMDL_I70.ZIP @ skyspirit here: Be careful, this is not the "Rev2 Paris Airshow Research model 777-9X", but the regular (older) "Research model 777-9X").
 
Another nice repaint for the brand new Skyspirit 777 GenX: Air Canada by Brian Chau.

All new SkySpirit 777 files are now hosted in FB (whether you like it or not!):
https://www.facebook.com/groups/407992835888461/files/

Scenery is a mix of Aerosoft Manhattan X on top of MegasceneryEarth New York City Pack (an old one, includes bits of New Jersey and the whole Long Island), with a freeware Freedom Tower by Cliff Crane (avsim) a bit tweaked by me.

I don't know why I love big liners like this, and not sure if the SOH crowd is much into tubes...
