    I doubt it is mesh issue (not my area of expertise) but just wondering if you followed the FSAddon release notes concerning layer priority and disabling files. Something I forgot to do when I transferred my set-up from one computer to the other.

    As for ORBX, I tried it but it put trees all over Canada north of the "tree line", including Baffin Island.

    Hi Guenther.

    From the Release Notes that came with the scenery:

    "People

    I think they add a nice touch to a scenery. But, modelling 3-D people is way beyond my skill set. Lucky for us there is a nice set of 3-D people models that were recently converted from X-Plane for use in FS9. I've put in a few of these people models around the terminal. If you do not want the people in your setup of this scenery remove the file named “PHJH-PEOPLE.bgl” from the PHJH KAPALUA-WEST MAUI \Scenery fold-
    er. If you decide you want these people in the scenery you can download and install the files from AVSIM with this link: https://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=195510. I did not notice any performance hit by adding these models. However, if you are having performance problems then remove the people file noted above."

    Hope this helps.

    PS. I just tried the link. Unfortunately the file seems to have changed location in the AVSIM file library. It is still available if you follow this link.

    Hope you find the pictures interesting.

    Yes, absolutely.:thumbup:
    I always get a slightly wistful feeling;( when I see these classics in such a deplorable state.
    But that's probably the way things go.

    Shortly after my visit, the town of Grey Bull ordered that the airplane graveyard be cleared. There was an auction but I don't know how many sold. My guess is most went to the smelter. Many of the C-119s owned by Hawkins were ex-RCAF. Some of the former RCAF 119s were still there during my visit. Nobody in Canada thought to preserve one of these in a museum, and the last opportunity to get one is now gone. It is a shame that museums collect things that have no direct connection to Canada's aviation history but an airplane that were once the backbone of the RCAF transport fleet, which served in dozens of UN and humanitarian efforts, is forgotten.

    Be careful flying that Hercules !

    In 2017, I made a tour of Montana aviation sites but the best part of the trip was a visit to Grey Bull Wyoming. I arranged to meet Bob Hawkins and tour the aircraft graveyard before it was cleanup and gone. The demise of Hawkins and Powers began with the tragic crash of N130HP. There is a nice memorial to the crew of that aircraft at the Hawkins' museum.

    And a few pictures of some of the many Hercules acquired for conversion or parting out before the accident. Hope you find the pictures interesting.

    Leider musste ich feststellen dass das 2D Cockpit wieder Probleme macht. Im Verdacht habe ich die Flugzeuge von iFly. Irgendwie scheinen die beiden sich nicht zu vertrage obwohl es keinen ersichtlichen Grund gibt. Bei der iFly 737 z.B. blieben die Bildschirme dunkel als ich mir ein Flugzeug in den Sim geladen hatte. Nach dem deinstallieren der iFly konnte ich ohne Probleme durch alle Sichten der Level-D switchen und jetzt nach der Installation der iFly ist wieder der Wurm drin.

    Eine Idee habe ich noch. Ich werde beide mal getrennt in einen Dummyordner installieren und dann in FS9 kopieren und schauen wie es dann ist. Aber das wird noch warten müssen. Habe erstmal keine Lust mehr nach dem ganzen probieren in den vergangenen Tagen.

    I loaded up the Ifly 737 tonight to see if I had such a problem, now that I have the Level D 767 running fine. No issues at all. Everything works okay on my set up, thankfully. Why do you think the Ifly 737 and Level-D 767 run interference on one another?
