Sorry guys, been a litte slack in replying.

Have been experimenting in Gmax and FSDS3.5.1, have to say I much prefer FSDS as Gmax is illogical to my electronics trained brain. I found the Gmax bible of little use too.

Have managed to put together a Hastings and a Belvedere (trying to get the cockpit shape right will need another trip to the RAF Museum at Hendon week after next). I will leave the Jetstream alone, cannot compete with the Premier division.

Will post some screenies when a bit more is done.

Happy new year to you all.

I'm the designer working on the 146 on the Freeflight Design Forums if anyone is interested, Rick, how is the Jetstream coming along, not sure if i can help with T1/T2, but have photos of the Highland Airways type if I can be of any assistance?

Kind Regards,

Piran.

Should anyone be contemplating going down the Jetstream 31/32 route, I can lend them copies of the Flight Manual, Crew Manual, Weight and Balance Manual etc.

Oops! Will have to look at that one. Got all the drawings I needed by the way from the RAF Museum at Hendon, heartily recommended source of material.
