I think there is another called gmax or somethin like that. IF you want to build your own dude you will LOTS of time on your hands. This building planes is not a 1 day thing more like a 1 year thing for new people.

Creating aircraft for Flight simulator is very complex and most people don't. If you're good at dealing with computer programing, it can be done but requires additional programs not included with Flight Simulator.

PS Don't type in all caps, it's considered yelling.

I would recommend lots of modification experience before attempting "from the ground up" aircraft building.

Even pros that make them like alphasim creaters still take months just to create them so newbies coming into the program not saying you are one I dont know that but that will take a longer time to get used to it. Good luck though on builiding aircraft.
