I've always loved this aircraft, and to have one in my hanger will be great so have allocated space for it, you are doing fantastically well with this and appreciate all the hard work that you have put in, :welldone: :welldone: :welldone: :excited: :excited: :excited: :cheers: :cheers:

Hi Eric :)

It hasn't and it is are the answers to your questions :cpu: There have been a number of 'cunning plans' along the way and all have suffered RW intervention.. not least of all Derek getting a broken wrist just before christmas! 8) The last plan I can recall is that we're just about happy with the Srs1.. a matter of dotting I's and crossing T's. Once that is done, the Srs2 will become the focus of attention.
While I wouldn't be so bold as to give a release date for either or if one will be released before t'other.. expect something in the not too distant ;)

Hi Eric,

I concur with Dave :lol:

Spending nearly two months with my mouse hand in a cast slowed me down somewhat...and once the impetus is lost it's difficult to get going again.

The Herons are still ongoing but no release date as yet...I'll have to backtrack to try and remember where I'd got to 8)

ATB,

Derek
