This Piper Mirage was originally released by Chuck Dome.  When I first saw it, I contacted Chuck and asked if I could have access to the source, so I could apply dynamic shine and other minor improvements.  Chuck graciously accepted, offered advice along the way, and granted me permission to upload my finished result.  Little did I know that the project would last several months.

Among the improvements I've added:

Dynamic shine (specular lighting)
Reflective Windows 
Static discharge wicks off of the ailerons
Reshaped nose slightly
New Textures (interior and exterior)
New prop animation
New Flight Dynamics

I've tried to study shots of the real Mirage for this project.  I tried to produce the improvements on Chuck's work I could based on my skills--but this is only my second aircraft release, so I have a long way to go.  In order to finish the project in this decade, I did not try to build and animate a door.

When I started the project, I wanted a 200kt cruiser that looked nice, had dynamic interior views and a V/C, and handled fairly well.  Chuck did most of the work, and I hope my additions offer the community an aircraft they can enjoy...

Note:  I have included two panel config files.  The default is for FS2002, and the second is for FS2004.  Rename the appropriate config file to panel.cfg in order to use.
