BEA for the APLHA Whirlwind

Garry,

Yes, you do need to register, which is why Dano and I posted here for you, save you the effort l presume.

l've no idea what hes on about TBH, l presume he thinks it should fly with the mast fwd, ie like a real flag, one side being reversed l presume, rather than a mirror image where the mast is always left....or is it right ??.

Hi Michael

The mast to the front.....making the flag opposite on the right to how it is normally displayed as an image.

Perhaps you or someone elsec ould post this over there as I don't want to register just for that.

I am puzzled to put it mildly.....Did whoever raised this actually take the trouble to check.

I might even be painting an aircraft that was wrong.

Not so though in this case...........well I can't see it.

Yup thats how l imagined it.

Fully understand that, l wouldnt either !

Probably not, they rarely do, no disrespect ( in case there reading this LOL ), but l doubt anyone at CBFS would get a Union Jack wrong !, me, yes, you, no.

I might even be painting an aircraft that was wrong.

Doubt it.

Not so though in this case...........well I can't see it.

Hi Garry..

I was with you on that already mate. As I said.. I couldn't see what was wrong before and still can't!! You're probably right in saying that this chap is 'assuming' :roll:

Thank goodness I don't have to retire just yet

Michael/Dano..
Tks for taking the trouble to liaise

Dave,

We have a saying on the docks about the word assume, if its not too close to the knuckle it goes like this,

To assume makes an Ass..out of U...and Me.

Never heard a ditty so profound and correct .

Hiya Dave

Yep I realise you were with me....badly written...just re going through it to make it clear to the masses. :k:

Thanks for you support..

Don't retire yet

And yes thanks also to Michael and Dano from me to bring this to my attention.

my email is in the read me which show how much checking was done.........but there you go.

I might well have got the jack wrong in the past before I realised to normal orientation with TBH does not really show in these sizes.....but not now..hopefully.

Ah yes, readme's, those things that people avoid like the scurvy as if theres some hidden Trojan horse or virus inside ?.

Hi Michael

Yep...I think I should call them 'do not open under any circumstances'

That should do it :huf:

BTW thanks for your support on this and you situation outline in an earlier post.

This started out as a simple case of a set of three paints but developed away from that.

At least opinions got aired and answers were given..and it remained polite and civil.

As long as everyone's happy now it's not worked out too bad....just a bit different to how I originally imagined :think:

Garry, thats quite alright old chap.

People may be quick to the bone here but as you say at least its all very typically 'British' and civilised, more tea any one .

Anyway, back on track, hopefully we can 'Anglasize' the S-55 for you all and get it closer to what some wanted, l will need a copy of your textures to make sure the texture mapping across the air dam matches perfectly in pixel scale so that your cheat ( or are they called cleat ? ) lines match up.
