The Dreamfleet team has really added some great little touches to this plane. The digital instrument read-outs, the use of the right/left/scroll buttons to control settings, the partial panel covers...here's one more...Some may not have noticed or not realize the usefulness of this item. Take a look at the altimeter. See the three bugs, yellow, red and green? They are altitude alert indicators. Sporty's sells them. To get a better idea of what they can do, click on this link:http://www.sportys.com/acb/showdetl.cfm?&U..._ID=1183&DID=19While Sporty's bugs move simultaneously, these move independently of each other, making it easy for you to use as you see fit. Just click on the upper left/upper right or lower right corner surrounding the altimeter to adjust their position.This plane is great for flying IFR...Have fun,PamThis space intentionally left blank.

Hi Pam,Glad you like the goodies, and thanks for your purchase. :-)Now I just have to sell our version of the altimeter bugs to Sporty's, as an enhanced version or theirs! ;-)We're currently working on another gauge goodie, that we hope to update the Archer with soon.Regards,http://www.dreamfleet2000.com/gfx/images/F...R_FORUM_LOU.jpg
