Hi,
as probably only a few experienced aircraft-/3D-designers regularly read
throught the official FG Forum I want to draw your attention to the very
interesting Fokker F50 3D instrument panel project of a real life Fokker
F50 pilot ("FokkerCharlie").
He seems to be really engaged, has already made a lot of nice
instrument/panel digital fotos (see link at the Forum) and wants to
learn Blender as he still is a totally n00b.
AJ already gave him some advice but cannot go into the work himself.
After my opinion a cooperation of an experienced FlightGear aircraft or
3D designer with this guy could result in an outstanding aircraft - the
big value is that he has access to the aircraft and the pilot's handbook
and has all the knowledge an aircraft designer normally does not have
(we know all the positive exceptions from this list :-) ). And beside
this, he should know how the real Fokker F50 should behave realistic in
a flightsim and therefore an improvement of the flightmodel could be done.
So sharing the workload between someone who already knows how to make an
working 3D panel and FokkerCharlie "with his hands on the aircraft" -
what could be better for a *very realistic* small airliner?
