Photo in Duxbury/Ewing /McP Aircraft of the RNZAF, one being WJ988, noted as a T17 (conversion) when lost with 360 Sqn RAF in 1968 due to birdstrike.

There's a new Jetstar A320 livery for the PSS model on AVSim this week, look for filename: jetstar_a320_vgv.zip From the screenies it seems like better detail on this one Thank you very much. Yes this livery looks better than other one /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Bruce , guess the Realair Spitfire is your choice and for FSX gives you 6 variants and marks , clip wing cannon jobbies , early tail MkIXs to MkIVX s , a brilliant package . /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

The proof will be in the pudding... will this model and the PMDG model both feature undercarriage problems like on the real a/c? /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif />

I owned it for a while, but ended up getting a Flight1 refund (lost about $5 in the credit card fee/exchange rate go around) - and technically it was very good although I found the dials quite difficult to read with the VC set to a zoom level I was happy with and I found learning a whole new GPS with a primitive (true to the real world!) interface just frustrating - I can drive an FMS or a Garmin just fine. The autopilot was also a bit strange (again aparently true to life) it that you can't do altititude and heading at the same time!?! I suspect everything I didn't...

If you want a real /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif /> I was nearly too late myself - posted the heads up then forgot to actually buy one - got in with about half an hour to spare ! Gary

AH HA AVATAR /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif />

Nice little post there Ian...my preference is still the L-39 though..superior VC, better systems modelling plus there are a few private L-39s in NZ but I guess there is a price diffrence in models...mind you if I was in charge of Air Force procurement there would always be room for a squadron of Hawks

Scrubs , We will see you in a Multiplay soon then /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

QUOTE (IslandBoy77 @ Nov 16 2010, 04:41 PM) Funny how time fudges little details like that... /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif /> The weird part, i can remeber almost every detail from 60-70 years ago but cant remember what i had for brecky .. its just plane nuts /blink.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :blink: border= 0 alt= blink.gif />

Srrubs , Now that is going to be an interesting one to check out , should be here by now

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Nov 14 2010, 06:13 PM) Scrubbs ! Your going to love this one /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> Search David Sweetman for all RNZAF variations, they are FS9 paints but work fine in FSX /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> Great, thanks Ian. I just went for a quick spin in it before, first impressions are good. I only got the baser pack, seems to have enough to play with there for now! Just trying to stabilise my monitor after the last wee shake. Thought it added some realism...

Scrubbs , It s a superb model , and very detailed , cockpit op's have been updated , and many features i have not tried yet such as weapon release and the mission mode .

It s a Great plane Srubb,s and nice Screens /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

Thanks Pete , these would be by another author , 2004 paint only the MAAM 'Pionair' myself - RNZAF , Jason Hunt, the NAC dont recall who did it , Mount Cook did it but was'nt released , Lawrie Roach then added to Retro AI ' Two files for FSX using the 'awesome4some' package by James Eden and Jon Murchison have two paints under my name and a third incoming to co-inside a scenery release . /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

You are exactly right Alister .. 100s were not selling .. the 200 was the backbone ! don't figure ..... speaking in Russian .. Valimiri 'i not complain' gorky /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif />

ahhh... "Him big feller, he brush much good coloured mud on metal bird him fly sky. Him give Eagle rainbow feathers" Or summat along them lines...

QUOTE (mfraser @ Nov 10 2010, 10:49 PM) Yeah - its like the programmers failed to acknowledge that there are pilots in other parts of the world that use Millibars!! I have the PMDG 1900D completely refitted with a combination of RealityXP gauges. The Flightline-T series has a Generic 2 window altimeter, whic allows QNH settings in both hPa and MB. It is payware, but I find them heaps better than the default gauges and many freeware gauges - they're very smooth and very crisp and clear. It will set you back about NZD$38 and is compatible with both FS9 and FSX. Best of...

hahah very true Ian. We're on the downhill slide to 5 years NZFF membership now /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> (While I don't post every day, I read everything and still really enjoy this place!)
