My intent with my JPATS model was to pool into one directory all the various
pieces scattered about various directories necessary to model this aircraft,
then one by one improve the pieces, such as aero model, instrument panels,
electrical system, etc. Doing this in a separte directory from the T6Texan2
allows us to retain that model.

As advised, I downloaded the T-6-Texan-II model from David, which is
actually where I got most of my start. That worked fine. I played around
with that model, and was able to duplicate the problem, but also during my
playing, I discovered a way around all of this, at least so far. I'll go
back and rebuild my JPATS model from the T6Texan2 files, piece by piece. 

It looked like the error messages:

   NoLoDs=1
   NoGT=499 NoLT=146  No0=0
 
Which are reported as "This seems to be a plib MDL loader problem:" appears
in the T6Texan2 model, but it doesn't cause it to crap out, so I'm just
going to ignore it for now.

For now, I'll just take the blame for an ID-10-T error, thank all of you for
your help, and march on. If I discover anything else towards this problem,
I'll report it.

Thanks once again,
Bill
