Yeah - sorry I have not had time to get the other repaint done (Rotorua based Para Fletcher) and get these models released. I am in the middle of leaving the Air Force and starting work outside. I am working in Wellington for weekdays and flying home to Blenheim on the weekends. This does not leave me with a lot of spare time at home. I hope to get my laptop up and running with the design tools I need and the I can get working at night during the week. I also want to start a Cresco

It will be cool to see the Rotorua one. Here is a shot of it to show others what it looks like...

Also are the pictures I have sent you enough? If you need any close ups just PM me

A cresco will be really cool. Then what about the PAC 750

Yes a 750XL would also be nice (with animated parachutists??) - when you find the time

I'm pretty sure there are addons (freeware) that work the same as the smoke switch.
I will try and find a link to them

Edit: Found it, I just downloaded an aircraft with these effects in them. They jump out every few seconds and there chutes also open. This is what I got, http://simviation.com/fs2004vintage32.htm then FS2004 De Havilland DH89a Rapide G-AKIF Rothman's Skydivers Textures only file. I just used the effects out of this, however they are the older rounded parachutes.
Here is a shot of it

(Do mind the poor edges. I think it is because of compression)

I do love ZK-EUD's teeth! They're so cool

I can't wait to see one of the Rotorua Fletcher, would go perfectly with RealNZ Rotorua

(Not that I have RealNZ ROT, but I'd certainly like to. Maybe for Christmas.)

Um

I wouldn't have a clue.
I think the best thing to do would be to try it. I don't have FSX and so I can't test it but you might want a to give it a go/
Otherwise I think there would probably be others out there. Maybe just try searching google for "FS X Skydiver Effects" or something. Good Luck
