1. The trim wheel looks in AC3D like this: http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/object_in_ac3d.jpg, but in FlightGear it is just an ugly object: http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/dc3-throttle-bug.jpg The orange mixture stick doesn’t look correct too.
That's a plib bug -- any vertices closer than 1cm together get merged, messing up surfaces. It's easy to fix, but the plib project isn't always fast to take up patches. I run a patched copy locally, and you might want to do the same thing:

} ;2. The instrument panel shines through the fuselage: http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/dc3-model-bug.jpg, but the dc3 model is not alone there, when you look at other aircrafts with 2d panels, you can find the same bug (or feature?). So I took screenshots from c172, a4 and c310u3a. http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/c172-model-bug.jpg http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/a4.jpg http://home.arcor.de/iljamod/c310u3a.jpg
I think that's mainly a matter of where the panel comes in the object order, but I'm not sure.
All the best,
David
