Hi Rui :hello:

I find this post having just closed down FS for the night.. leaving the Heron Srs1 after yet more changes to the FD :lol: I should be using this smilie really because thats how I feel at the moment.. :wall:

Thanks Dave ;)

Rui and all, more apologies from me, the Heron is still ongoing but more and more, old age and real life intervenes....

..however, I am coming out of winter hibernation so that's a good sign ;)

ATB,

Derek :)

Don't look too close but we're only 3 months away from 4 years since the first WIP shots were posted in R&D :-O How time flies :lol: Joking aside, however much longer it takes and whatever state the release package is in.. it will definitely NOT remain still-born ;)

Don't remind me... :hide: :lol:

Anyway, time for a round-up, yee-haaa :lol:

The model is basic folks, for FS9, no bells or whistles, no VC and yet another cracking 2D panel from Fraser ;)

Ir's turned into more of a celebration of long-extinct British independant operators ;)

Am I right in thinking the Heron appeared for a while on the Barra run? (like, post-Dragon Rapide, pre-Twotter?)
