...to ClassicBritishFiles, Avsim, Flightsim, Simviation. Awaiting approval.

Initial release includes 2 BAF, British United and BUAF liveries. Fully featured all new exterior GMAX built model, dummy VC included. Flight dynamics by FSAviator, thereby making it the perfect companion to the JBK DC-4s.

This is my modelling debut so go easy on me.

Cheers

Hello and Welcome Jon

Just down loaded it from CBFiles - going to take it to Sarfend and have a bash - You've filled another missing slot on our dance card - Dont worry
about folks here -- they are of course Mostly Harmless - You have some excellent reference sources for just about any of the "black arts" so dont be
afraid to ask - or take advice and critism - (scuse I never could spell)

Editted after a quick jolly from Southend to Ostend
Jon - if I may - with addition of a good DC4 panel and PW sound as you suggested your first born is not a bad piece of work at all - it gave me a couple of leery moments departing Southend (I wont take the intersection departure in it again)but it has that wonderful ponderous handling quality
the DC4 had - Congratualtions a very good start to a building career

What a wonderfully stately old lady!! Loved my first circuit in her.

Great panel, that will stump the buggers who rely on their ILS and autoland :wink:

Take an external view from the ground on finals and you'll realise that the americans didn't invent the jumbo. :smile:

Welcome John, and many thanks. As has been said, another gap filled in the skies. First model? Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

No need to seem tentative, it works fine for me.

Any criticism from the inhabitants on this site will be of the most helpful sort, and in no way offensive. If you follow the threads on any of the forums you will see what I mean.

Hi Jon, welcome to CBFS.

All I can say is that your plane looks like Crap, with a capital "C".....













But then, that's the way a Carvair's supposed to look.... :smile:

Great work man.
