Very nice Rick!
Hope you do an FS9 version one day! (would have to change my computer to run FSX but I can't right now!)

Hi gribouil
There will be no FS9 version as stated numerous times during development.
FS9 is a dead sim that cannot do what FSX can do so i see no point making a commercial model for a dead sim.
there is already a very good BAe hawk by David Bryce for FS9
Regards
Rick

Sorry Rick!
It sounds as if I didn't read very well what you wrote!
I will have to seriously think about changing my computer some day...

Hi Mate
Sorry if it sounded off but i have been bombarded with literally 100s of e mails attacking me for not making the hawk FS9.
the other 200 e mails are asking how the T45 is coming on and the 200 etc which i am also not making as i want the cockpits accurate and it would take far too many years to complete the task.
Have already spent 9 months making Just a T1/A Hawk!.
FS9 cannot display the Hawk model as it's far too complex.
to strip it down and rebuilt for FS9 is just not worth the time and effort it will take.
It was originally planned to be made for both sims but ACES produced 2 service packs and Acceleration which made it far too complex to do easily as the goalposts kept moving all year.
now they have settled and gone off to play Choo" Choo! )ACES & M$) that is i am left with getting it finished which will only be FSX SP2
Regards
Rick

Hi Guys

I was in contact with a Guy called Bryan who was building a Hawk T1/A cocpit for use with FSX
can somone please see if his e mail works as i have tried it about 10 times and i never get a reply
[email protected] remove the W W at each end please to stop robot spamming him for here
I am guessing that BTopenworld is blocking Yahoo mail addresses (ironic as it's basically BT)
if you can talk to Bryan can you please point him here ?.
