Awesome!Maybe fuselage width...that's about the only thing I can think of, other then that the model is one of the best i've seen ever!I always feel bad when I say something about freeware aircraft :(I know you bust your a$$ making this hobby better and better and I'm always afraid that you as a freeware author (or other freeware authors for that matter) will take it the wrong way...I hope you don't Mike :(Like I said, the only thing I notice is fuselage width. Other then that, awesome work!!!Thanks!Shane

great great airplane one question what's you're next aircraft gonna be? is it possible that you can do a A310 with a Air Jamaica, Tarom livery or can you make a A321 with a Air Jamaica livery?

Mike, THANK YOU!!!! Did you make the wheels dirty by any chance?? You know, the hub area...just curious. You are one gracious dude! Thanks for listening to the vocal minority..:) Honestly the more I mess with this model the more I like it. I will check out the new wheels asap!! THANK YOU very much!Heres a repaint of Piedmont, changed a few things and the colors, I'll upload it soon. Enjoy!http://www.flightsimmers.net/airport/hornit/pd727.jpg

"Would there be anything else then?"Well, since you asked.... I will take a thin crust pizza with tons of mushrooms and cheese please. :-lolYou're too easy Mike, but I am sure that everyone appreciates your continuing efforts to satisfy the masses. For my part, I never stare at the wheels. I am too busy avoiding trees, power towers, buildings and the like to care. :)Thanks Mike.

Mike,I just want to say that that was a very gracious thing for you to do. Even though I did feel that the wheels were a little too big I was very pleased with the 727 and since Alpha made the Carnival for me I was a very happy camper. Now I am a very very happy camper.Thanks for all you have done for this hobby of ours and I hope you never stop. Your GMax aircraft are the only ones I download now. maxsdad

Thanks Mike..looking forward to it!Bill

Hi Mike,Easy question for you. What is the poly count for the 727?ThanksBob

>Mike, >>For those of us who have added a whole bunch of textures can >we just drop in the new folder for "model" and the new .air >file? Has anything else changed that we need to update? Joshieca, all I did was add the new textures I downloaded like normal and then cut and pasted those sections of the Aircraft config. to the new config. and everything is fantastic!!Hope this helps! :)Shane

The textures are the same. The only thing that changed in the aircraft config file were the contact points.Mike Stone
