I don't see any form of prop texture (either still or blur) and found the installer threw the model all over the place. Never a good start when you use an auto-install routine and the aircraft isn't there when you look for it :roll:
No doubting this is a most unusual subject ;-)

I'm fairly clueless when it comes to alpha-texturing, but here's what I got when I modified the 'propglass.bmp' texture. I basically made the alpha portion of the texture (the prop side, not the glass side) a negative image. I have no idea if this is the proper way to resolve an issue such as this.

Never 'eard of it! I thought it was a jet when I saw no prop, but a small 'intake' on the wing!

How strange!
Prop textures work fine in FSX SP2. Glass needed adjustment to get the side windows transparent. Other than that a great model out of the box.
Thanks Ted
