Sorry to keep referring to cinematic links (see Comet 1 thread) - but wasn't one of these in civilian markings used in the opening shots of 633 squadron as the getaway plane for the Norwegian Resistance guy? I particularly remember the triple tail.

Hi Guys
New poster here- names Dave and I'm posting to say thanks for all the kind comments about my new Miles Messenger - much appreciated !
Sorry about not including precise instructions as to what to do to activate the .cab files from default aircraft ! - completely forgot because some time ago I moved them into my default gauges file, so of course the problem never showed up for me. Blame Leif for hassling me to get it posted !.
BTW I think you're right - the aircraft did star in that film.
A query - has anyone got anything like a cockpit layout, pilots notes etc for a Miles Gemini ? I know the panel layout is very similar to the Messenger but should have two of most things for the engine controls & gauges.
Cheers CHEERS
Dave M

As per the install instructions, I have found that the gauge Cab files for the DH Comet, Piper J3 Cub, Douglas DC3 and Lockheed Vega panels need to be copied to the Messenger panel - fills up the "holes"

Great! I like this Messenger and I wonder why (in my PC) she flies radio controlled... :tab: no pilot inside! She's a QUEEN BEE MESSENGER!

I would like to see good a new textures for this one:)

Hi Kiko

It is not a texture issue

There is no pilot in the model ;-)
