Hmm...I remember the Phantom being described as "a triumph of thrust over aerodynamics" - but look at all those knobbledy bits being stuck on the poor ould Herc ohmy.gif
A couple of them could nearly qualify for this month's screenie comp rolleyes.gif

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'

Thanks for looking guys , and of course there are more that haven't been modeled for fsx.
The old girl really is just a platform . Boeing did the same with the 707 , but I've screened them before.

I am looking for an AC-130A (three blade prop) The captainsim site points to one by David (Dax) Sweetman on Avsim .... buggered if i can find it , only an H.

I'll can contact Dave, very sure he is on deployment at the mo, AVSIM - since the hacking did not do anyone anyone any favours, sure he would have a file floating around somewhere.

Cheers Mike .... this is where it gets confusing . That warlord paint is in the captainsim site , under C-130X paints .... but shows up at avsim as FS9 , and the screen shots appear to be either an E or H model .
I'll grab it when i can and see what happens .... thanks for looking into it aye thumbup1.gif
