For reference, examples of top-notch cockpits are: microsoft Junkers, for a vintage cockpit SWS Kodiak, for a clean just out of factory feel Carenado C170 On the other hand, here is the new 247D, cockpit has that FSX/P3D feel again. I don't have the technical background to understand what's the difference between a "next gen" cockpit and those legacy cockpits though, I'm just seeing it looks worse 😅. https://wing42.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/wing42_b247_wip_040-1-2048x1203.jpg Edited March 18, 20224 yr by Johnny Wyatt
March 18, 20224 yr I hope someone will make a "Songbird" livery for this when it is released. Did I just show my age with that reference?

Funny you mention that...I'm starting to dive deep into the world of livery creation (have done 3 so far and getting better at it). Was so excited by the 310R that I started looking at various liveries for inspiration. Sky King's Songbird is among them! I even made a head start by re-creating the crown logo decal on the tail! I'm struggling a little trying to find the font used for the "Songbird" on the nose, but I think I found a decent enough substitute. It's the 'S' that's flummoxing me at the moment. The big question is do I look to Songbird III for design or as it looked in the show? (Best I could find was a wooden model of the show plane at various angles). Maybe both? I'm not old enough to have seen the show, but I was pleasantly surprised that a 310R was made famous by the show! I'm also eyeing the USAF (L-27A "Blue Canoe" and Navy versions, along with some nice looking civilian designs.

Perhaps both. Either way, I may end up doing both the show and PR liveries. Not too much work for the second after completing the first.

March 19, 20224 yr Maybe a bit off topic, but if this is what they can do with a Cessna 310, I wonder how good that ATR is going to be... Bye bye majestic Dash 8, off for retirement you go. Edited March 19, 20224 yr by Makinen11

March 20, 20224 yr Looks like a day-1 for me for sure, though I hope you just flew around the whole time with your Flaps down. It never got outside the Flaps range for Airspeed.
