Dear authors of the OV-10A Bronco model, please, take the following things into account:


- USAFE and NASA '''share the same paintjob''' and loadout (as I understand, there will be a new NASA version, when FlightGear 0.9.11 is released)
- USAFE version is available as a '''separate download''', while it is included in the 3-version package at the same time, the separate download could be deleted, so that only the 3-version package is left
- '''Landing gear''' is a bit higher, than the ground surface, it visually hangs in the air, when the airplane is standing on the ground (it is noticable when shadow is on), though the gap between the landing gear and the ground surface is very small
- '''CDF version''' has no instruments and controls in its 3D-cockpit, the cockpit is a flat foto-texture (as I understand, CDF version will receive a 3D-cockpit, when FlightGear 0.9.11 is released)
- '''Engines start-up/turn-off''' is not possible (only fuel flow can be cut), as I understand it will also change, when FlightGear 0.9.11 is released
- '''Outside lights''' are present, but they can't be switched on/off and they actually don't light
- '''OBS / HDG knobs''' are not functional in the 3D-cockpit (can be set only through the radio dialog)
- '''pressure''' value is not shown in the altimeter in the 3D-cockpit (can be set only through the instrument settings dialog)
The above mentioned things correspond to '''v20060619''' of your model, that is available for download from the FlightGear official site.
Apart from the small issues mentioned above, the model is great! It feels and looks complete in almost all aspects: good flight model, animated body (flaps, gear, ailerons, elevators, rudders), neat 3D-cockpit, nice sounds, working systems, lights etc. Many thanks for it. I liked the opportunity to really use the removable fuel tank. I fly OV-10A very often.
