Yeah, that was one of the reasons I asked -- I remember seeing livery

Here is an idea:
Right now, if we want to include an external model, we can do something like:
directory/*.xml
What we can do is add a new type of tags called textures. It will be
something like this:
directory/*.xml
By using these texture tags, FlightGear will be able to load different

Indeed!
The MD-11 too is a very nice tri-jet, i'm looking forward to see it in action :)

Pretty much. Although this wouldn't really be hard to fix, if anyone
wants to give it a shot. One way to go about it would be to provide a
"mapping" somehwere in the aircraft properties w

Hi. I'd like folks' opinion about this.
Right now, Robin Peel's apt.dat, which contains the runway and taxiway
data, comes with xxx in the runway designator field if it's not a runway
(i.e., is a taxiway, an apron, etc.). FlightGear's runways.dat, derived
from same, also lists things this way.
Very nice model indeed. Looks like a nice addition to FlightGear's small but
continously growing fleet of 3-engined wide-body jetliners. :-)

This is a useful website for aircraft data. Unfortunately, it only list data
for the L1011-100 and not the -500 series.

Probably not a good idea to send the file to list.
I'm sure one of the guys who has CVS access will ask you to email them the
files soon, so they can put it into CVS. Loo
Thank you all for your help and comments :)
I think i can keep the triangles around 8000 for this second version, since the
first version of the model had a lot of redundant triangles, and I forgot to
take that in acount when i said 1!
The editor used was Milkshape, so i will be using .3DS
