I installed and flew 1 Aug after MSFS2020 update 28 July Panels now screwed flying characteristics sensitive. I modified config files as listed below improved fly greatly.
Hope panels can be fixed soon , I cannot cope with the grahics. Great effort anyway.

I'm sad to say that the aircraft just does not appear in the list. I've downloaded it, unzipped it and put it in Community folder, but no sign of it in the aircraft list. I've tried several times but no luck.
Can anyone suggest a fix, please/

DC-3 not showing in fs2020. It's in the Community folder (where the Tiger Moth is, which works beautifully), but, although it is "installed'' in Content Manager, it just will not show in the aircraft list.
I'm devastated because it's a lovely aircraft.

Nice job with the port! Thanks so much. Fancy having a go at the Basler Turboprop version by Manfred Jahn if permitted? It has a beautiful vc.

I have already asked.
He gave Gordon Madison (gman) exclusive rights to convert all his projects.

Very nice to have now a good flying DC3 also with a good panel. Will it be possible in the near future to get access to excisting FSX-liveries , I noticed that they cannot used in the present form, so i guess there is some sort of conversion needed. There are beuatifull liveries and it would be nice to can use these.

That is, until your shot down and disavowed by the C.I.A.

I was surprised, it looks nice and seems to fly nicely, but unfortunately I fly in VR and it crashes when I switch to VR... I hope you'll update and fix that little issue that prevents me to enjoy it... Removed for it now 😞

I know the Aerosoft CRJ has this same issue.
The workaround right now is to load any default plane in VR first and back to main menu while still in VR and load the DC-3.
see if that helps you

Yes, and the panels turned out perfect!
However, I'm still waiting for a reply on permission to release.
