Had a look at some screenshots contained in the download.
Looks a bit "basic" to put it politely.

Hi John,
Saw it yesterday and I did'nt bother downloading or announcing it to the chaps as it looks dreadful. Think its an old model just re-worked. :think:
**EDIT - should'nt this be moved to C&B?**

The guy is still learning it seems. He put out a Ce303, PA-42 and Ce404 at the same time - he asks for feedback.
Who knows, he could turn into a good source of light twins

Hats off to the guy for giving it a go and learning to build FS aircraft. I've started a couple of projects and believe me it can be a little overwhelming trying to build stuff when you're a newbie. :redface:

Absolutely Brian. I always say the very same, giving nothing but admiration to those that give their spare time to provide something for our enjoyment.
I would never even attempt to build a model!

Indeed
Folks have to start somehwere and encouragement should always be given.
We don't want to hound them out :roll:
In anycase a lot of these have use in AI to fill the backgrounds out with apropriate types

The recent spate of his re-releases are because he seems to have used some copyright textures, and has now removed them.
There is an open letter apology on all nodes from him explaining his error.

And still the Shigeru Tanaka model is the best example of the Basset

Isn't that only for FS2002 though? :sad:
