Cheers Brian, when you're dealing with the Canberra, it's hard not to make it look beautiful

Cheers Dave and Techy, when the beta's out I'll be sure to let you know. One good thing, I'm no expert pilot either, and I am pleased to report the FDEs are very forgiving. You can bring her in with ease, and as the Pilot's Notes state, the aircraft is a pleasure to fly.

Any chance of a dark side version... That looks too good to miss!

Lovely!

Lol, non-civil? She's VERY civil! Sorry had to get that in. Well, we're on opposite sides of the fence then, seeing as I don't touch much without a roundel on it, but that's great the Canberra might tempt you over (to the dark side). She's well worth it - the unsung hero of the UK aviation industry in my opinion and heavily used worldwide.
As for the other Dark Side, conversion all depends on how well the FS2004 release goes, and how much time Skippy and Sketchy74 have on their hands to handle the work. I've been told it's not too much, but can't vouch for that.
Cheers,
Steve

Well done Steve!!
I am to host a real life retired Sea Hawk pilot in November this year who has promised to try out our FS9 Sea Hawk flying from FS9 RNAS Ford and Ark Royal. Pity I have to wait so long but this gentleman has many real life comittments so I just have to be patient.

Hello James,
that is very good news indeed, I would definitely like to hear what he has to say, when the time comes. I have a feeling he will say it is too responsive - entirely my fault if so, as I was always asking you to increase its handling abilities. We'll see though, time will tell.
Best regards,
Steve

Consider me a very happy bunny if there's ever an FSX conversion!
And even if there isn't, that looks like a fine model. I admire the wide range of variants in the pipeline, too.
