How did the omwings panel work? Started to work with it but that was about the time it got pulled from the site and never really got into it.

The OW panel is pretty complex, most systems are simulated so it's not a CTRL+E type of thing. If you like Fraser's Viscount/Vanguard panels or something like Level-D, you'll like OW. One switch in the wrong position and you're not going anywhere. There is a manual of sorts, translated from German but without illustrations, or there is the original version if you can read German.

My problem has always been the lack of a decent model to go with it, so it's languishing on a CD somewhere. Erick's model looked good but the FDE was something else, so I bought the Aerosim package just for the Tristar. I could never get a merge to work properly so I use their rather simpler panel.

I wonder of the improved FDE mentioned will include DLC?
