That's gotta be the best way Paul :wink: Get the basics sorted first and then worry about a VC at some point in the future (way in the future if I had anything to do with it) :lol:

Why this fixation with thing must having a VC.

I think it's a question asked too much as if it did have one it would say so.

Personally I'm grateful for what I get.

The popularity of the F-28 (Without a VC and few if any complaints) show they are not quite so 'must have' as the impression is given

It is not realised just how much goes into these models.........and a VC means at least as much again.

We are just a couple of amateurs (apprentices in fact) so go easy on the comparisons with PDs effort.
Absolutely, Paul. Judging from the video, I've no doubt whatsoever your work will be very well received. One thing I'm really looking forward to is your RAF paint scheme, which is something I'd love to see for the PD example. :smile:

No one can win anyway. :dunno:

If someone came on and said we have just about finished it apart from the VC and it will be out in a few months when a VC is made there would be an outcry to put it out now without the VC.

This way we can all enjoy it and of course there is always the option of an update if the modellers so wish.

So again thanks again Paul and Manfred...can't wait

Cynical? sorry for off topic but my question was no-nonsense with no negative connotations implied whatsoever :doh:

Hinch

I was staving off the usual VC request as you sort of mentioned it

It was general comment not aimed at you specifically......

But you often ask and seem to be trying to ask in a round about way and you always want a VC.

But as I say it was general staving off of the VC thing

Fantastic looking model and a very professional video. Where did you find the scenery of Gatow?

Hi may433..

I think it may be FS Berlin scenery. Go to allnodes (Flightsim.com) and type Gatow into the search engine. Lots of bits there for FS9 :wink:

A fantastic video for a beautiful aircraft (OK...maybe not quite as beautiful as a Lanc). Looking forward to your hardwork, Manfred & Paul!

Am I the only one who got sort of sentimental about old college girlfriends while listening to that music, too? :smile:

DaveB,

Thanks for the pointer towards flightsim.com. I found the Gatow scenery there this morning.
