I took off from EGPH in an AEW Seaking to pick it up at 0950 (it's supposed to sail at 1000 daily for a turnaround off North Berwick) and in the end, I changed to the Mighty Hunter but still never found it. Landed back at EGPH to track a live flight PHNL to Kona.. my cousin is out there enjoying some sunshine :)

Oh.. my shipping is on 51% which should be enough? *-)

EDIT:.. you popped in there as I sent this mate. Totally agree. Constructive criticism is one thing but folk are too eager to go one step further. Mark's a member here and he's welcome to come and release it whenever he see's fit :thumbsup:

60% traffic - based that on my current level when I used aibtc to compile the route....it's probably too high and well spotted I probably should have put that on the readme!

Thanks George. Being an ex-matelot, I know where Rosyth is and I know what 1000GMT(Z) is too :lol: I was there 10mins before in the hope of catching it before it sailed. Point is, you're seeing it so I've obviously cocked up somewhere. Will check again now because I was miffed to start at Edinburgh which was default and I know I have UK2000 Extreme installed. Some foul deed is afoot :lol:

Rgr on the traffic level Gary :thumbsup:

I feel some "Sea Trials" from Barrow coming on. Its always good to have something to land on, so thanks very much indeed :thumbsup:

Its a really shame about Eagle, I was very much looking forward to having another Harlands ship to add to DG's Fearless

[EDIT] Did Rick ever release Glamorgan to the public? *-)

Hello Mate :hello:

No.. not as far as I'm aware. It was never finished :(

I must be having a bad day at the office as I've gone from no carriers to 2 in one go. I took the first screenie to show (by coincidence) Fearless anchored just a tad further down when the deck started moving beneath me and another Invincible appeared :-O And there it stayed :lol: I did reload the sim as I realised why I'd taken UK2000 Extreme off.. my FR's mysteriously go down to 9fps. This may have duplicated Invincible. I'll try again tomorrow when I'm awake :lol:

Despite the bits you wanted working NOT working Gary, it's a fine model :thumbsup:

EDIT: I couldn't go to bed without trying one more time. It's fine now.. reloading the sim (unchecking UK2000 EGPH) while on the runway at Edinburgh must have duplicated Invincible somehow :) Landed on deck in a Storch too :lol:

As an aside.. I wish I knew why UK2000 EGPH hit's my FR's so badly. Sitting on the default runway, I see 67fps. On the same runway with EXPHX loaded, I see 9fps. A darned shame as the UK2000 scenery is great but I can't stand that sort of hit :(

Lovely lovely stuff! :agree: :welldone:
I have her sailing out of Barrow, up round Arran and then down to the South of IOM (just off the Airport) before sailing back. Many thanks indeed for a lovely model :thumbsup:

Picked her up in the Hunter...

Nice shots Ben :thumbsup:

It's a lovely model innit mate. If Gary is unimpressed with it, I'd suggest he makes some more. I've plenty of space on my HD's for things like this that don't work ;) Keep 'em rollin' down the slipway matey :thumbsup:

As an addon to this.. I resolved the 9fps UK2000 Edinburgh Xtreme problem by upgrading to the latest version (v3). Not sure if I still had the old SP1 ver installed but now seeing over 30fps there now and the detail is quite superb :thumbsup:

If anyone wants to have her in the Irish see too, you can use the traffic file below. Leaves Barrow about 05:30 heads straight up past the top of IOM, down the West side of IOM, past Anglesey to a position just off Llanbedr at about 14:30, then heads back at about 17:30.

Thanks chaps,
Special thanks go to Brian Franklin for providing the harrier model, and Bruce Warren for the flight deck textures. Without whom I never would have got this project finished.

Ark Royal will be out later on next week, followed by Lusty. I'll post on here when they are out. CVA-01 is still a way off. Currently also working on USS Oriskany for someone.

(still hoping for Marks HMS Eagle) :-)
Cheers
