My Shorts 330 brochure shows a window in the stbd rear door but none in the port rear door.

Stbd side: Counting from the tail there is a rear door with window plus ten fuselage windows plus one window in the lower halk of the starboard smal fuselage hatch immediately behind the cockpit. The is a space between the ninth and tenth fuselage windows counting from the tail.

Port side: Counting from the tail: Entry/exit dorr with no window. Nine more fuselage windows plus one window in the large cargo loading fuselage dooe which has also a small hatch built as part of that door and that small hatch contains a window.

Ummm... we model in FSDS and compile in SCASM so the short answer is no. However, if someone could (a) convince us of the benefits of native FSX over ported FSX and (b) then give us the idiot's guide to FSXing and bump mapping ( whatever that is) we might be persuaded to try it.

Hi,

Yes it's really good to see the 330 being released alongside it's stablemate and look forward to adding it to my hangar in due course. I worked for an airline which operated both so personally, its a long waited addition. Thanks PAD.

Regards
