But the actual projects website seems to have vanished. Any ideas what happened there or if they have moved someplace else? Google was not my friend. www.shackletonproject.co.za has gone.

Unfortunately it went some time ago but I think Henk still appears here from time to time.

Is the Shack required for Fs9 or FSX ????

An MR2 was in the offing but remained stillborn. I was an admin at the Shack project and didn't know the site had gone. Just shows how long ago it was I visited there! :worried:

AFAIK, the model is still available from Flight1 and it was FS9 only. It'll go into FSX but there are no guarantees ;)

Henk does pop-in from time to time so he may have more info for you. I guess there was so little progress (eg, none) on the new project, there seemed little point in maintaining the site.

There was an MR2 put out that looked good but had terrible dynamics..I forget who's it was *-)

Someone updated the package and it flew a lot better :)

Henk's not been active here for a little while now
