Yes, the windshield is not very accurate, the L1011 is a very complicated aircraft IMHO, and my editor doesn't help too much but if after texturing, something doesn't look right, I'll redo that part > > By the way, what type of engines do the tristar uses? The L1011-500 uses the Rolls-Royce RB211-524B take a look here for details: http://www.aircraftenginedesign.com/TableB3.html > I have good experiences creating a basic FDM for the MD11 using aeromatic.
