You never cease to amaze me Rick.

Although I have never flown any of your models :redface: I really enjoy the looks of them. (I still have 'em all downloaded)

Must get around trying some of them out sometime.... I guess it's a lack of education if I haven't ... :lol:

Very nice looking Rick.

Hi Dan

If you don't fly them....and you as anyone else have a particular type you do...they make great AI if your machine can handle it which I'm sure yours can :smile:

Dual Seat

Hi Rick,

The Sycamore lots stunning and your fan base is increasing all the time... including those from Hovercontrol.com now!

I appreciate she'll be flown from the right hand seat, but will it also be possible to take other people along for the ride in left hand seat, using this feature in FSX?

I must confess that I use them, but "degrading" them into AI, I didn't thought appropriate mentioning ;-)

Now it's in the open... I use all the models from "our" developers as AI as well ....

It's not degrading them Dan

You can only fly one aeroplane at a times and this is a saying they're so good you want to fly them all at once and with AI you do.

Also seeing them passing by as AI gives you a chance to see the outside of the models...best of all worlds methinks :smile:

Looks fantastic. No more words.

Perhaps you are interesting in a rare historic dokument, showing the Bristol in the German Alps 1960

If yes, have a look. 17 min in German language, but every second truely worth. And the sound...

Go on with your nice work.

Twas not a request.. though I guess you get enough people making requests that you interpret anything that sounds like it could be a request as such :smile: I always assumed that the front end of the Belvedere was identical to that of the Sycammore though, didnt know it was only the case on the prototype.
