Elliott, what a surprise! May I offer anything? I have tons and tons of photos and references, everything short of genuine build/model drawings. I have a 55 year old Boeing made model of the prototype not too far from me here at my desk. Please Email me if you need anything. From the shcreenshot, it looks like it's coming allong very nicely, and appears to be a B-47B-II or B-47E of sorts. One tip for modeling the fuselage: The B-47's fuselgae is essentially a double bubble cross section, but over the length of the fuselage, the two tubes intermesh exactly at the nose and roughly behind the rear gear bays. In between, the lower once gets smaller in diameter compared to the upper one, and it is moved bownwards, although no crease is visible in the fuselage(I'm talking about where the fuselgae gets almost oval in cross section at the wing root). cahill01@{remove this!}charter.net

Thanks for the help people, in pointing me to the sdk and other tools and information. Posted is a screen shot of the efforts thus far. I still need to get some reference material for the cockpit. Also need to read up on how to customise the flight behavior, as this one just borrows the stock 737.regards,-Elliot
