it's by riviere, xp-8 quality plane, not very good.

An exterior shot.

Not terrible, he makes a lot of planes, so at least we have it!

Alright, here goes nothing:

Seems to me you have to make the nose look funny in order to make a next-gen super-efficient widebody. 787 anyone? -NR

East-German Interflug, unrealistically landing in West-German (former US air base) Frankfurt-Hahn.

Ryan, if you keep on, you'll end up getting yourself banned. Leave it.

can you please GTFO? how many ways can we tell you that we DON'T WANT YOU HERE? You've repeatedly created spam accounts whose original purpose has been forgotten in your vain attempts to tease the members of this forum. You also lack the subtlety to convince the population here that you are in fact a new comer. Here's a tip, if you're gonna come back here again, which we all BEG you not to, come back under an alias who shuts up, sits down, and tries to assimilate instead of standing out like a sore thumb, and NOT in the good way. I thought you were an okay kid, and even would've argued in your defense when your name was still a320, but all of these accounts are just ridiculous. LEAVE. and yes, to those who insist on criticizing, i'm aware of the irony in this post.

Hey guys! Edit: filled-up all the beta-tester places

The middle console is done. Some small items left to do (like normal maps, tiny color corrections, text on Flight Data Recorder) but I'm very satisfied with the result. I've learned a LOT this weekend. The last little panels took less than an hour to texture it up fully - with all the dirt, scratches, labels, etc. I think I'll make a clean version too, but as I've seen on airliners.net, none of them are clean... So, it's time to move on. Next will be the overhead panel. Still no date on release, but things getting faster. PS.: I have a lot of ideas how to make this plane more real, e.g.: when you download the plane for first, you get a clean plane with clean cockpit. With every flight, the plane downloads a little more dirtier texture. After about 20 flights you get to the full-dirty version. Of course you can clean the plane - it replaces the texture with the previous clean version. Hope some day it may be done
