Although I'm a real word Private Pilot working on my Instrument ticket I am new to the Flight Sim world. I have FSX installed and running on my computer with yoke, rudder and headset add-ons.

My real world plane is a Piper Warrior II (PA-28-151). Since it doesn't seem to be very popular in the sim world I would like to create a sim model.

How does one go about doing that?

Wow! That's a lot to digest but I'll give it a go.

Thanks, and like Roar54, you'll probably be hearing from me again.

Wow, this will save me some time!

Will the model in the second reference run on FSX?

Thanks I appreciate your help.

Gauges probably won't work.
Most FS9 gauges won't work in FSX.
Try it, you can always delete it.

You could always try the SDK but I'm not quite sure how to get it to work.
