Development status/Issues/Todo
Former project
Eelko Gielis started a first project of an Antonov An-124 for Flightgear. Apparently, only the main fuselage was started to be modeled, and the project seems to have stopped around 2009. The plane was included in the "Bahamas Triangle Disappearance" section.
New Project
In 2016, Andino started a new project. It has a yasim FDM, already developed.
The project has moving parts: gears, gear doors, ailerons, slats, flaps, spoilers, rudder, vstabs, fans, reversers.It also features cargo doors, and the possibility of being loaded with containers, helicopters or a locomotive.
There is some development of the cockpit. Also two liveries are now available.
To do
There is still a lot of work to be done: Overhead Panel, improvement of the Cockipit, Rembrandt, etc.
