Why would you want to, when the same aircraft exists in FSX as well?

Because the textures I'm using only work on the FS9 model not the FSX model.

After a bit of google-ing I came across this document : Converting FS9 aircraft to FSXIt explains how it can be done, but also mentions it doesn't work with all aircraft and there's a bit more work involved than just copying to the right folders.

It worked fine aliasing to the FSX panel. Was just wondering if anyone else had done this.

The Fs2004 textures work fine on the FsX model, you just have to eliminate the unwanted Fs2004 ones. Just look at a sample FsX texture folder and suss out which you need.

Hi, if you want top quality DC-3s, you might wanna check the MAAM-SIM DC-3. Please remember to download the hotfix available on the product's page, as this allows the model to work in FSX, which also converts the textures into .dds formats.Dave.
