I'm a U.K. resident, the wrong side of 80yrs, but who still gets a lot of enjoyment out of his Flight Simming - with very special thanks to HJG for all of those wonderful planes.
One of my all-time favorites is the b727 series but I'm puzzled about the wing and passenger views that are detailed in the panel.cfg's
When I use Ctrl+Shift+1,3,7 or 9, I get a completely black screen - but, just for a split second, I do see a wing!
Having looked at the panel.cfg intricately, I notice that 6 .bmp files are not present. viz: "Window_(left/right)(1/2/3).bmp" as in the Fixed Windows 40 - 45 of Kevin Sparkul's Passenger Views.
So, the actual questions: have I missed something patently obvious, assuming that wing/passenger views are possible for the 727? I have tried to look through the forum but haven't found anything similar (which makes me think that it's my fault and I've not got things right)
..and, finally, my grateful thanks to all those people who keep FS9/2004 flying. I love my Sim and am too old in the tooth to start upgrading now. Keep up the good work!

If you're using any of our B727-200's .... then .... despite whatever's compiled into their CFG files these B727's lack "wing views. We lost these views when the models we currently have were recompiled during 2015. Additionally I wouldn't recommend using any CFG data (AIRCRAFT or PANEL) that's not a part of what we provide or recommend for use with the HJG versions of the B727 simulations we offer .... we not only can't provide support for such (not being an HJG offering) but it may cause issues too. By comparison though our B727-100's do/should have "wing views" .... simply because what we offer, in regard to these B727 simulations, remains (so far) unchanged unlike is the case with the -200's. On the subject of these B727 "wing views" .... as are evident within the following HJG videos (produced by our Benoit PLAMONDON to promote his HJG offered B727 sound packs) .... www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDZx4he0wzAwww.youtube.com/watch?v=NlVzQtBvkDsPLEASE NOTE: these "wing views" function per elements "compiled into the original models" .... just as is also the case with our DC-10's also. These "wing views" (as presented within the above linked videos) are not a product of the CFG stated views. HOWEVER .... all's not entirely lost .... if you can use the following instructions in order to successfully produce alternative/artificial B727 "wing views" .... tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/8143/wing-views-boeing-727s-fsxhttp://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/8143/wing-views-boeing-727s-fsxThese alternative/artificial "wing views" are intended for FSX use .... but .... I think (not sure though) they can also be made to function within FS2004 too. I'm sure our Nathan FORD will be only too pleased to talk you through the necessary procedures should you need any assistance. Mark C AKL/NZ

A little more information in regard to "our recommended" procedures for adding WV's to HJG offered aircraft subjects that either lack, or have otherwise lost, these. The following linked information is for FS9/2005 and is supported by both images and data .... as well as a tutorial video too .... tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/9490/simulate-wing-views-fs9WV's in all (but 1 or 2 HJG offered simulations) are pretty much a DIY exercise.
