Hi Mr Seaman, Thank you for helping me on the possibility of re-modifying the FS2002 and FS 2004 planes I did re-read your very instructive reply, you did say if I had a request to modify an aircraft for maybe F9 or F8. These following airplane is the reason I wanted help in finding a way to lower the landing gear, this FS2002 P3-C is perfect everything works except the landing gear will not lower, to find it just go to Fltsim.com look up the search for FS2002 Aircraft, then type in only Lockheed there you will see about 300 planes just go to the almost end of the search list abd you will see the two P3-Cs, they are in the color of bright red and white, everything works the landing gear will not come down. let me know what you think. Thank You and Chirstopher for your help Casey

I have tested a number of FS2002 airplanes to lower the landing gear but so far none will work. A gentleman was able to lower the wheels on a FS2000 B36B by Mr Paul Clawson to make it work in FS2002...it worked!! but I cannot find it. A number of people who use FS2004 have tried to help me but they too are puzzled. The FS2002 airplanes work perfectly....it just will not lower the landing gear for FS2004. Thank you for any help or suggestions. Casey Jones

Dear Mr Winsley, I see in some of your scenery airports of Canada that you may be closing down, I feel that this scenery is (I belive) the most important airport it is the Cartierville Air Field in or near Montreal Canada, in 1933 Mr Robert Noorduyn who designed and built the first Norseman at this airport factory, I have had a difficult time just finding a picture of the field which I did. The Norseman was built from 1935 to 1959, I fly the Norseman in BC, Mr Winsley if you decide to pursue the construction of this field just usr the word Cartierville (CYCV) This will bring up the airport and factory I was able to d/l a picture of the first Norseman with the factory crew who built her. If I can be of assistance in finding anything on the Norseman and the airport factory please e-mail me at redbaron60@frontiernet.net Casey

It is very refreshing to come across a airplane that is rare but I came across it here. After years of seeing zillions of the same tube liners over and over as if everyone is copying each other, I found the Breda Zappata BZ308, the Italian Constellation, it is almost in the design of the American Lockheed Constellation but that is where it ends, At first I fitted it with a Connie panel...it will not work, the panel that came with it was fashsioned from a DC3, and modified for four engine, I modified it using my panel creator adding more gauges to the panel, it works very well, pulling the thorttles back to about 170 to 200 knots gives it a almost 3,000 mi range, It is easy and confortable to fly, I powered it with the four Bristol Centaurus engines which I am very happy with. I wish to express my many thanks to Captain I. Attomo and Captain G. Ouai for their hard work and dedication to building this find airplane. Casey
