It's thanks to you!
Anyway, you'll give me a hand to position 'em since mine is only a concept test.

5) General clean-up of unused files. JMav, 411
6) Update sounds (add an additional touchdown from MD-11, improving some GPWS)
7) Fix Stby-AI "panel hole" for KCs and E-8R. 411
8) Add ground services (gear chocks, de-icing) 411

EFIS controller will be done soon. I'm doing a lot of MD-88 work and it 3rd on my list.

I can't fix the MPcrash. It's the complexity of the model, with a few dumb things not needed over MP.

I won't be working on the screen until I get a texture. (Searching volunteers)

[J Maverick 16]

Alright, I'll remove the mpcrash part when I get on the PC from the list. Glad to hear that the EFIS update is coming soon .
About the texture, I could try with something but honestly it'd be crap so no. I'll create a thread on the other forum regarding the planes asking for volunteers to help us with the stuff we still have to do (hoping that there'll not be a flamewar starting from nothing).

Knowing bugman, it will! Just look how fast he was to paint FGMEMBERS into bad light: https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=30418

Major updates to all aircrafts recently, starting from the new E-8R 3D model.
Pics to come soon!

I have some secrets to add soon you'll enjoy!

Also the A/THR RETARD works at 20ft if you leave it on.

BTW the new Stby-AI instrument will be included in all versions except the RC-137R which is going to keep the current one. Decision is final.

EDIT: Updates to TODO list (The more we do stuff, the more the list gets longer LOL).
