Yes we had Russians hanging out at the polling place where I voted too. I'd voted for Hillary (only because I can't stand Alex Jones) but there was a very large Russian woman standing next to the ballot box with an abnormal amount of facial hair who checked our ballots before accepting them. She said gruffly "Ð’Ñ‹ не похожи Ñторонник Хиллари мне" which I learned later loosely translates to "you don't look like a Hillary supporter to me", then she simply erased my vote for Hillary and penciled in Trump. With a smile she handed me back my "corrected" ballot and pointed towards the ballot box. Fearing imprisonment, but mostly an indefinite diet of Borscht, I complied.

Jill Stein and her band of hippies all thought the Russians "hacked" the election but in reality it was much simpler than that, they simply assisted us in "choosing the candidate we preferred". :)

(Now watch CNN run with it, washed up Hollywood actors will make another condescending video, and thousands of mindless Soros rioters will collect another paycheck for destroying innocent people's property in the streets - all because of a silly comment I made on flightsim.com, lol)

Likely one of the following:

-You used the FS9-native .mdl from the download rather than the FSX-native .mdl

-You didn't correctly define the VC .mdl in your model.cfg edit

-You didn't make the eyepoint edit so you're not positioned in the VC (look behind you)

-Probably 10 other reasons that I haven't thought about yet

A few more details would make "why" a much easier question to answer. :)

Hey bushp04 how have you been? You've been AWOL for a while my friend. Good to see you back.

I'd buy that 206 if I were you. You get a float version and a cargo pod version in addition to the one shown above, plus the choice of wheel pants or bare wheels for all. The plane's got some balls, at 8000' you'll still be climbing at 1000 fpm. You'll like the prop sound too. Virtual cockpit is excellent, I'm not a VC flyer but I fly this one from the VC. At $30 bucks for the whole 9 yards I don't see how a person could go wrong. The only things I don't like about it are the lack of a "Both" position on the fuel selector (one wing gets heavy, switch tanks and pretty soon the other wing gets heavy), and the sluggish control response (plan on turning up your control sensitivities). Frame rate impact is less severe than Posky's new 777, and the textures are in DXT3 mode right out of the box.

The Skyhawk on the other hand I probably wouldn't have bought if I had it to do over again. I didn't like the flight dynamics, but then I've been spoiled by over 200 sim hours in the RealAir Skyhawk. The Carenado Skyhawk exhibits the same sluggish control response as the 206, maybe even to a greater degree. The visual model is quite nice though so I'm currently flying a merge of the Carenado visual model, RealAir flight dynamics, and the default FSX Skyhawk panel (yes, in FS9) which I fly quite a lot.

Have a good one,

Jim
