I have been using AC3D to do this function, first import to AC3D then export as a Collada format and import into Blender 2.61 generated .objs ....
And save the file as a blender file, then open in Blender 2.5 or higher.

The problem with STEP to blender is a PLY or STL file.
Rhino3D is a free trial, fully functional for 25 savesNot in a direct or trivial way unfortunately, but it's possible .
Import to Blender or AC3D, export X-Plane OBJ8.

I'm a bit confused by all this 2d panel vs 3d panel vs 3d cockpit talk. I have been building planes for a very long time and am comfortable with 3ds max for my geometry and have no trouble exporting my models to Ac3d so then I can do any animations I ...

If you prefer to work with a single ac3d file, you can group the two types and Hide one....
As a seperate "panel object", is this not the case? or is it just that AC3D can't do it?

This will help you create texturing the model - If you're using blender to create the model, texture it, and export it in .x.
You should use a 3D modeling tool like Blender , AC3D or similar.

I didn't see anything like this posted before, and I know some of this stuff won't work with GR:AW, but it might help someone get started with something and eventually work their way into GR:AW.

AC3D can reduce the triangle count pretty good and as an alternative I ported QVis.
I have written a reader/renderer for AC3D files that works fine at google code .
Or write one yourself.

For many years now the DirectX file format (.x extension) is very popular and Blender contains vertex morping.

Blender's OK, if a little quirky....
Also, Blender is not that strange once you to use, and has very good tutorials.
Not sure if it helps, but you might look at Wings 3D .
