Thanks a lot for adding the model files to CVS, I was just done posting my own version of them on the forums :) I meant nothing by culprits, in case that wasn't clear, just as an example of what his us today : I'm a fan of your work on the Beaver and Twin Otter. I had completely forgotten about the Beaver model change, even though I had seen the cvs logs and wondered about it. The catalina, I didn't get around to having a fix around before today and warning people about it. Just wanted to bring this (back) to attention, as not all the userbase will dig deeper if the same aircraft with the same author doesn't work right away in MP ;)
It would indeed be nice to hear what the modellers and devs have to say on how this should be tackled.
