Is anyone aware of an Air truck for FSX or FS9? I remember having one in FS98......

You won't find much searching for Air Truck, you will need to use Airtruk or PL-12!!
I made the first one way back in 1998 for FS5 and FS98. Ahhh the simplicity of a maximum of allowance of 256 polygons in the model and a 256 colour pallette. Check this out............!!



A more up to date version was by Mike Stone. It's for FS2002 which will also work for FS9. Showing its age a bit now too. Search under PL-12 on www.flightsim.com

Have often thought about doing a new version for FSX, but I really lack the required photos, particularly of the cockpit, although I have a few. I'm still undecided about the next project post Cresco.

Funny someone should bring this up... I was trawling through pages of info on the Flying Eggs just a couple of weeks ago.

And when you're done with the PL-12, add a C188 Ag Wagon, a PA-25 Pawnee and a PA-36 Brave to your to-do list laugh.gif

Come on Marty you know warbirds come before old out of date crop dusters when you can hop in Deans Cresco any time you like but we have no Nanchangs and it is way past time someone built one Dean will tell you we need a Nanchang and had plans to build one all that is missing is some detailed profiles and measurements and if we can source out all the data I am sure Dean would get strait onto building one. biggrin.gif
