what do I need...

[Derbyman]

I want to make an aircraft for Flight Sim 2004 and I need to know ALL of what I need... can any one help?

P.S. I need a guid as well.

Read the "Aircraft Design FAQ" for FS2002 models.

*AT THIS TIME* and until Microsoft releases an FS9 aircraft design SDK, making a model for FS9 is the same as for FS2K2. While gmax 1.2 is included in disc 1 of FS9, the necessary converter and makemdl.exe are not, which leads one to believe that Microsoft will release it separately.

So, if you do NOT have FS2K2 Professional Edition, you can either wait for the FS9 SDK, or get one of the other aircraft building software packages, such as Abacus' FSDS2.

As far as " guides" - there are several, starting with the programs' own tutorials, and others at Freeflight Design Shop - http://www.freeflightdesign.com
