(As you could of guessed, I am running Windows XP, with SP2) Which software is this? You don't need to compile any software at all to build a/c for FG, you don't even need Cygwin. You need patience, a text editor, 3d modelling software (eg blender or AC3D) and some graphics software (e.g. inkscape & gimp).

If everyone took that attitude, FG wouldn't exist at all! If you want a particular model, why not roll up your sleeves and get busy? Believe me, if I (utterly lacking in artistic abilities) can do it, anyone can... Actually, modifying an existing model is probably an ideal place to start, since creating a new a/c from scratch is a lot of work (though by no means impossible even for a complete newbie.) By the way, if the Seneca is out of date I hate to think what the Camel which we're currently remodelling is :-) Anyway - give it a go... if you need pointers, the wiki contains many useful bits of information and the FG IRC channel is a great place to go for help or advice.
