Classic British Flight Sim

va_tp432.zip it's over at all-nodes.

It's a new model by Ito-san. I've no idea what it's like as I'm at work at the moment

But for those of you close to your FS rig, fill your boots

Kind regards

I thought he'd retired.. obviously not! Can't say the 432 ever floated my boat I'm afraid but it's typical of Kaz to produce one

As far as I can gather from an e-mail he sent me the other day he's now blind in one eye

Kind regards

Well, yes and no - this has been followed over at the Outhouse for quite some time. The last anybody had heard (about mid-2009) his sight was degrading and he could no longer model; at that point he was losing most of the sight in both eyes, so not good news at all - when this late rash of models appeared some of the people who had been more regularly in contact with him followed up and found that he had had an operation that had at least managed to save the sight in one eye. I think he is quite thankful, the alternative was fairly grim.

It's great to have him back, with his usual idiosyncratic selection, the Vickers 432 was only ever going to come from somebody like him.

That's pretty much what I'd heard Andy but not about the op to keep one eye up and running. Tks for the update

Thanks for the update, Andy. That is definitely good news.
