The Howard DGA-15P is the most common variant of the Howard aircraft still flying. And a special thanks to Pedrovl on the forum for help with a fuel pressure problem caused by the three in-line fuel tanks which I never would have figured out myself. No commercial use of these files is permitted, but they may be distributed and changed for non-commercial use as long as credit to the original authors is provided. The interior in particular is very plain and shows the need for an expert painter to help out if anyone is willing. I also plan to release a "paint kit" for this model in the future, and I would be happy to work with a painter to show him or her what goes where. The radios are loosely modeled on the Becker RMU-5000, but I may put in a Garmin 530 or make some sort of moving map in the future. My real interest in model development is in 3D panels and custom instruments with nearly a dozen provided here to match the real-world Howard DGA-15P (though because these 80+ year old aircraft are restored there is a *lot* of variety in instruments today). But it handles very well and looks pretty nice for the most part. This is version 1.0 with many improvements and small fixes planned for the future (e.g., the 3D Wasp Jr. The model has been tested in X-Plane 11.50 and 11.51 (but not with the experimental flight model). Please see the enclosed "credits.txt" file for details. The model began life as a freeware FS98-FSX model shell which I converted to the 3D modelling program, AC3D, and completely overhauled and rebuilt for X-Plane 11 over the last four or five months. The enclosed X-Plane 11.50 model is of the historic GA aircraft, the Howard DGA-15P.
