I'm not sure how many flight sim fans we have on the list, but Shadetree
Micro has been working on a Lancair 360 for X-Plane for a while now. The
project changed hands a few times, but is not in the hands of someone who is
completely committed to getting it done.  They'll be releasing a Mk1 and a
Mk2 with various prop configurations. They're using my bird for the Mk1
panel, paint scheme and performance numbers, but are looking for suggestions
for building a plausible, generic panel for the Mk2.

If anyone would like to submit their photos for consideration and research,
drop me a line and I'll put you in touch with the developer at Shadetree.

I fly IFR a lot and don't have a suitable airplane (been using a Piper
Saratoga) to use for practice in the sim, so I'm very excited to have access
to this.  If the model is done right, it would also be interesting to be
able to ask questions like, "what if it was 200hp instead of 180hp?"
X-Plane really can do some amazing stuff if you feed it the right data.

They told me they were fine with me sharing the news of the development on
the list, but they cannot commit to a release date.  I can tell you it's
coming along, though, I flew an early version (which has since been rebuilt
from scratch from what I understand) and it was not too far off in terms of
performance numbers.

Regards,
Keith
N360JH LNC2 Mk1
