HiI am thinking of giving FG a run - however I had a look at the screenies of all the planes that are flyable, but most seem to be incomplete - I mean how do I know which planes have the cockpits and panels in place?Also can someone please post some screen shots of the cockpits - there are many pics of planes from outside but not many focussing on the cockpitsMany thanksShelton.

Most single engine aircrafts in FlightGear have a cockpit. As for the rest, they either have incompleted cockpits, or totally lacking any sort of interior.The reason many cockpits are missing is that there are hardly any data (numbers) available that we as modellers can use as references. Do you happen to know of any place where we can obtain such data?

Not sure where to derive such infor - but maybe check out the manufacturers sites?thanks for your response btwRegards

If you need more planes you can download other planes later.(I suggest the planes i mentioned above)

Actually I am running Linux !ThanksShelton.
