Hey, I really like the work you did on the the original. The cockpit is pretty good, but there are still some improvements to be done to the interior modelling, which is still very inefficient as shown by the huge loss in FPS when looking towards the interior. Also there are a few errors in the exterior model, at a few places there are a lot of internal surfaces (which are invisible) visible. This is most obvious around the flaps and the ailerons, I have not looked for it in any other locations, but these were the ones that stuck out.
Also, I think there could be some small refinements done to the FDM. When I first took off the plane veered sharply to the right when I rotated, but there was no sidewind to cause that. Lastly, the roaring sound of the engines gets pretty annoying in cruise, from my experience that sound only occurs when the aircraft is moving slowly through the air. Maybe it should be reduced as airspeed increases.
If you want I can spend some time doing pretty much any of the non-graphical stuff.
Also, I would like to use it to add some Rembrandt lighting, as I have never done that from scratch. That brings to mind, interior cockpit lighting?
Damn flared too long...
