oh I have that movie on VHS, in Italian. Now I want to copy it on DVD. Does anyone know if the movie is already available elsewhere on DVD? :bandit:

Hi Kiko

From previous discussion on this I think the film is not readily availiable.

It may well be through Amazon or something but it does not seem to be on lists I have looked at.

I do seem to recall comming across it by accident more recently somewhere so perhaps that has changed.

There used to be a lot of these sort of films on TV years ago but I don't ever recall seeing this one, so perhaps it's lack of release has been more widespread :think:

Tried my usual "last resort" source for DVD's (Movie Mall) but no joy there.

IMDB does have this bit of trivia on Man In The Sky though. Other folk here may know how accurate this is.....

More details (cast list etc.) if you follow the link....Main Details .... about half way down that page in "Related Links".

The navigation isn't obvious don't try the link "Details" at the top - that needs a premium subscription at IMDB.

Wish I had found this place, sooner, a lot of great looking projects here. I saw the freeware lists on the main site, but did not see a download link? Is this plane going to be freeware as well?

Still plodding along :)

Work recently has been tidying up of the external airframe adding the steps, ramps and some aerials and wires

These will vary with the different models and are generic atm.

Quite a few details to sort out but the most of the external modelling is finished.
