February 5, 200620 yr I've been reading an excellent book, "Mainliner Denver", about one of the first acts of airliner sabotage in this country. It's particularly interesting to me because the plane crashed not too far from where I live. Surprisingly, though, I've not found any DC6s of any variety for FS9. Does anyone know of any? ThanksDavid
February 6, 200620 yr David,I don't mean to sound rude, but you really must not have tried very hard! Try going to www.google.com and searching for FS9 DC-6 - you will get several hits. California Classics is one of the the best web-site for these old planes - http://www.calclassic.com/ Graeme Butler
February 6, 200620 yr No offense take Graeme and it's a great site but aren't they all for FS2000? I was kind of hoping there was one with a VC but maybe I'm getting too greedy. ThanksDavid
February 6, 200620 yr David,Most of those are new gmax models with serviceable VC's. Just check through the various download pages... Graeme Butler

February 6, 200620 yr Thanks Eric. I will definitely give these a try. I did try the CalClassic DC6 last night but despite being GMax, I could find no VC associated with it. Also, the panel seemed to crash FS. I haven't completely given up hope though. Sure wish the planes could autoinstallDavid
February 6, 200620 yr DavidWith all updates, I do not get lockups using the DC-6 panel.Make sure you get ALL of the updates to the DC-6 panel at Tom's site.I believe there have been some updates regarding the prop reverse, which may have caused problems in the past. It's kind of confusing making sure that you have all of the updates, but the links are all there.Rhett Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
February 6, 200620 yr Author Hi,All of the DC-6's for FS2002 and later have VC's, AFAIK.If the panel causes your system to crash, download the fix from my panels page.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___ Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page
