And not one of them a Messerschmidt ! :lol:
Mike Stone was one of the greats, and his readme files were clear and concise - e.g This is freeware. If you don't like it, uninstall it, don't come crying to me to change it

Yes Mike was always the go-to for the AI models: great performance/detail balance.

A pretty good job, Mr. 'Pin.
In your own good time though, there is a wonderful experience awaiting you... no pressure. :D

Been a while since I've done any serious FOKKER'ing around :) .... either in F27/FH227 or F28 form.

Have recently been FDE updating an older FOKKER VFW 614 project though for someone else (probably not a community release .... at least not at this stage) .... and with so far encouraging results barring a couple of minor panel/gauges issues (it is a very old model, but, the only one ever produced of this rare and if not bloody ugly aircraft) ....

Think Benoit GAURANT recently released a new F27-500 simulation (panel/model/sound .... "the works") for FSX.

Not sure whether or not it's portable to other FS platforms such as P3D.

Judging from high quality cockpit window, I would say it is expensive payware JustFlight model base.

It was always nice hearing you guys come and go when Zac (K5054NZ) and I lived in Blenheim. A bit of a treat for propliner fans.
