Without sounding too rude - Its far better than I ever was able to accomplish
But I suggest - in the words of Monty Python - this is one for laying down and avoiding - we are spoilt by the gurus far too much

First impression is that it looks like it has been modelled on the Dominie with the new longer nose (as discussed previously).
Hence the civil versions are going to be visually incorrect.

If it is then it would be incorrect without the nose addition as the Dominie has a different fuselage profile.

I have given it amiss as the nose profile looks wrong from the picture... Oh dear I am getting far too fussy in my old age :redface:

I've just taken a peek
It doesn't have the right sort of look about it tbh.

Nothing wrong with being picky about freeware aircraft! Just because it's free, doesn't mean you have to like it.

True...but still reluctant when someone has spent their own time to give us something for free.
I know how much effort these things take....
Always a tricky one. :think:

A sensitive subject, yes, but you can't help having your own opinion.

Indeed......but some of it and at times most of it I keep to myself.
But that's not a critism of any one who does say so...that's just me.
