Thank you all, I must say that I think this was just about the hardest rating for me to obtain of all the previous ones in Delta VA. The intense attention to cockpit and navigation at the same time was very challenging. I can see the DC-3 and DC-6 will be very demanding mistresses, so to speak...

Ben, You Did just fine in the old bird.Down load the fix for the panel and it will make the Blue Bar work for prop reverse.Also we no longer require Pictures in the CR ,that was too distracting ,as you know.
We will have a great new DC-3 and panels for both FS9 and FSX soon.Can't wait you can down load them from www.DC3Airways.com.They dont have our colors but the new ones with the installers will.
