Hi Derek,

Do you have a dog or a cat by any chance? Do you tease them as much as you do us? :)

Looking good!

Hi,

Do you happen to have a picture of the AVIACO Heron in the 50's/early 60's livery? I'd be interested in painting Dee's AI plane for my new propliner AI package. Was it the standard blue cheat stripe with black titles and yellow/red stripe on a white tail?

If you have a pic in your computer, could you send it to tgibson51 at yahoo dot com? Thanks!

Hi,

Antonio has graciously sent me some photos of the AVIACO livery, so it will be included in the new classic AI package, due out next month. Lots of improvements in British AI too...

Thanks!

Looking good there this lovely 4-engined propliner. :dancer: Did it have Rolls Royce power instead of the DeHavilland Gypsy engines? :think:

Hi Sean

There were some Lycoming re engined ones converted in the States, but all the real ones have DH Gypsy Queens :)
