CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I use the X-Plane. They have FAA-certified versions that are actually used in real flying schools. The home version practically runs on the same core software/physics so the feel would be the same. Things here fly differently than in "games" like Arma or Battlefield. Here, flying is much more realistic and actually difficult.
This is me doing some Red Bulls flying in X-Plane. I have the full control setup which I built myself - control stick or joystick, rudder pedals, and helicopter collective. It took me months of training to be able to fly a helicopter like this (they are much harder to fly than airplanes!):
Don't do this on a real R-22! This kind of flying will break it apart!

I've been developing for FSX and Prepar3d for years, I've wanted to be able to port my stuff into X-Plane but the lack of SDK's and tools makes it really hard to do.
I've been involved with a couple of upcoming sims as well but not able to talk about those fully at this point in time due to non disclosure agreements.

I'm not sure if you can port entire FSX planes to X-Plane.
The 3D model files can be ported I think. But the flight handling characteristics, you'll have to do it from scratch using planemaker app in X-Plane. If I recall correctly, FSX use table values for flight handling. I think you can use that information to help you input values in planemaker.
Unfortunately, I'm not the most talented in X-Plane when it comes to modeling. I'm sure there are quite a few people in their forums who are familiar porting FSX planes into X-Plane.

I develop photoscenery and not so much talking about porting stuff to X-Plane, planes and models are easy to do and well documented, it's the aerial imagery stuff that is hard as there's little documentation anywhere. Maybe I should try and talk to Austin.

Try the forums first http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/
If you didn't get any answers then you can talk to Austin.
