VA flights in the 'Wheelbarrow'

Post by **RAF_Quantum** » 30 May 2007, 19:39

Early morning departure EHAM - EGCC just crossed Dutch coast in the climb

Later in the day, en-route EGCC-EGPD

Coasting inbound just south of Aberdeen, lovely Scottish weather!

Number two to land, hope he expedites the runway!

He's just clearing the runway as I wait for the wheels to touch

I love the wheelbarrow, but it looks like the 100 model will never happen, so all those wonderful British schemes seen in the 70s and 80s will never see the light of day :crying: :crying: :crying:

It will happen

It seems to be forgotten that i have FSDS running 40 plus hours a week every week.

Not a very useful post to me at least :k:

I think Rick the lack of information about what you have on the go leads to folk thinking that some will never get to see the light of the day, you need a publicist and an agent mate

Hi Guys

I have no lack of information just totally fed up of people moaning that this & that is not released when they have zero idea how hard it is to keep every project running .

Every time i someone decides with absolutely no idea what they are talking about i get held up even more by the flood of "Why not" e mails.

30 all of a sudden about wheelbarrow.

Yes there will eventually be a 100 & no there will never be an RAF version from me.

I get more P***** off at making freeware by the day & i don't expect that sort of comment from someone like Trev

Right!. Who wants to sort out my Website as it looks Poop and i don't have time & get 20 mails a week telling me it's out of date

(if they want to pay for it as well as tell me what i already know please feel free.

I either spend 40 hours a week replying to dumb questions in e mails or i spent that time making new models. (your choice).

I got railroaded with the 748 into making a 780 that i did not want to make.

It's beginning to happen with every model and it stops right now.

I am going DM style into i make what i want when i want.

Sorry but had enough recently of all the politics in freeware & it's time i did what i want to do and stop trying to please everyone as 7 years of almost solid poly pushing has not kept everyone happy (including me).

Right Rant over :redface:

Can I hit one of them please, preferably the last one

Rick look at Mike Stone he did what he wanted and what he enjoyed doing, sadly it did not stop the "knockers" even though Mike's work does not carry anywhere near the detail of yours he still got fed up with it all. Its a shame really talent wasted... So just go with what you enjoy, if others like it...Bonus if not ...Tough

just don't let the buggers grind you down

Hi Tony

Yes but Mike Stone had a Gun

Sadly the Navy wouldn't let me take a GPMG home with me when i left

I feel guilty now as Trev may think that was all for Trev if you get what i mean but he's no doubt read it by now so no point removing it.

(just pointing out to Trev) that the 100 Series Argosy is a definate although i can't tell when as it has to be converted from FSDS2 to FSDS3
which as usual is a shed load of work

Regards
Rick
