Sorry if this is an old subject, but is there any plans to model the 146? to the David and rick standard?

I know other folk have modelled this craft but i think the people here have the skills and knowledge to pull of an class 1 model :smile:

Hi U79

TobyV gets keen now and then..but has no time.... and no plans to make one...as you say there are others.

For the main stream model makers here it is considered too modern.

However perhaps sometime in the distant future as more as more subjects eventually get covered it just may end up on someones list.

But as something being asked here and now......a direct answer to your question is......I doubt it...from this stable at least :smile:

Jon Murchinson is probably the best bet but his new one is FS.X

i understand its a shame it would give the 737s a run for there money in fs if there was a good model with vc.

the best 146 ive found is aerosoft's but no vc :sad:

Problem is the modern models take a long time to make and the VC's take about as long....perhaps longer.

So non VC releases will remain a part of life.

The Aerosoft does not really enter the equation as it is payware.

Commercial Level Simulations(CLS) were advertising for beta testers/pilots for a Bae146 project.

I can't tell you anymore but I would suggest keeping an eye out on our home page(http://www.justflight.com) and CLS's site (http://www.commerciallevel.com) for information.

I would certainly love to get my hands on a Bae146, great aircraft!

Hello Martyn and Welcome

The CLS 146 has been mentioned here before.

Thanks for the HU anyway but this thread is really about freeware :smile:

Well that was good few years ago with FS2002. And there is no panel I like. The panel of Mr Lieberecht is good, but there is no possibility to start with engines running, so first 15 minutes with FS goes for starting engines. All other panels are poor or really poor.

Aerosoft 146 also is a FS2002 product.

If someone would make a new 146: :welldone: :welldone:
