    Spinning prop texture is opaque. However, I fixed that by using texture from another plane. Not sure the vc needs a GPS but other than that, lovely plane.

    I can see why this has over 6000 downloads, awesome plane. This is a "must have" it's simple to install, good to fly, and the detail is really nice. I'm surprised it's not payware.
