Dear all CAL Classic contributors
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE FSX Native (P3D V4 up ) Planes
as I had to move to P3D as FSX does not want to run anymore ( 4000 planes) had to move to P3D
Had hard time with almost no Connies and NO DC 7
THANK YOU
Roland

You're welcome, glad you're enjoying them. Actually that's a Panagra DC-7B. You can create a real domestic DC-7B by copying the DC-7B Dom folder from your previous sim and pasting it into P3D. Then replace the existing dc7.mdl file in the model folder with all the files from the P3D DC-7/model folder. Then it will fly like a DC-7B. The only niggle will be it doesn't have a navigator's station in the VC (like the model.intl MDL file), but that's pretty minor. You can do the same thing with the model.noradar folders as well. For any other DC-7B liveries that you may have in that DC-7B folder, change them to model= or model=noradar in the aircraft.cfg file and you can fly those too. You can delete the model.intl and model.eal folders, since those are not yet compatible. I assume that 4000 planes includes individual liveries as well.

Righteous screenshots, Roland!
I echo the hearty thanks on the P3D side. I really appreciate how at least on the plane side, the group has enabled, if not quite embraced, the new sim platform. The lighting and environmental improvements give even older models a dramatically improved improvement, and that's aside from the obvious system accuracy that's been implemented over the years.
Thanks Tom for giving these great models a new lease on life!

Hmm yes Did not know in FSX but P3D tells you.And thats not all from FSX because of the native story Of course I fly some of them often but it is also a bit of historic colletion about plane history And now can continue in P3D

Did so-->THANK YOU 4000 + yes many liverys too.Just look DC6// or to Manfred's C-47 ( that alone 84- allready cut down was 112 - just keep the most beautiful ones and the ones you cannot delete ) Roland
