Beech D18

Featured Replies

Has anyone tried Milton Shupe's gorgeous Beech D18S in FSX? If so, are there any special guidelines I should be aware of for getting it to work properly (gauges, etc.)?Thanks.Dewey

It works great, one of my favorite planes

I second that!I believe I like his Howard 500 even better, but appreciate both of these fine contributions.Happy Flying:RTH

Do the prop animations work correctly, or do they disappear behind distant clouds like most of the other advanced prop/smoke effects do in FSX?RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile

I have the amphib version of Milton's Beech 18 installed in FSX and it works quite nicely, I recall there being an issue with one or two minor and relatively unimportant gauges, but otherwise no issues and I don't think I saw an issue with the prop animation and clouds. There's also an update to the model which was made very recently, not having anything to do with FSX, but having to do with one of the NAV lights located on the elevator. Milton was kind enough to do this after someone pointed out a relatively minor anomaly with it.

I have flown it in FSX, but it was in December so it's been a while. I don't recall having any problems with animations or props or gauges.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2585 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2gb Corsair XMS 3-3-3-8 (1T), WD 150 gig 10000rpm Raptor, WD 250gig 7200rpm SATA2, Seagate 120gb 5400 rpm external HD, CoolerMaster Praetorian
