According to the DC3-Thread in the forum 
(http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13629&start=90#p146252)
the developement group decided not to work with helijah anymore for some known 
reasons. Obviously they will make further work and improvements on the DC3. But 
it seems not to make it's way into FGdata, at least not by helijah.

Difficult situation....


But I'm more concerned about some licence infringement of helijah according to 
the same thread in the forum. I hope it is not true, though I was already aware 
of one infringement. (Original "Airwolf"-sound).

Look at the Overhead panel- there is a switch called "caution lights"- just 
disengage.
But I'm not sure if this switch is realistic simulated.
