Hi, folks!

This one is about to hit the skies soon:

It's Rick Piper's incredible Hawker Siddeley HS.748 in AIR INUIT livery.

and
C-GCUK cargo (large freight door):

Waiting for cargo at CanUK's awesome CYYG Charlottetown.

Included will also be the tweaks for Nick Needham's gorgeous Autosmoke effects:

Dunno if those RR Dart engines are as smoky as JT8D's, but it sure looks nice spooling them up to full throttle...

Just have to pack her, should be available soon.

Cheers,
Markus.
 
looks nice! Dunno about the realism of the smoke, sometimes see the Boscombe Down Andover's round here and they don't seem to smoke but that might be more due to fuel. Looks good though.

Yep.
Garry Russell confirmed this over at cbfsim:
Been surrounded by Dart powered aircraft, most of the visitors at one time were Viscount, Argosy, 748, Friendship, Herald, Andovers etc....dozens a day and never seen one smoke

Got to say so as we deal in reality ...

So if you want your 748 to run accurate (and 'earth friendly'), just skip this tweak... :icon_lol:

Hi,

That's what I call a gemm :)
Thank's for this very nice texture of Airinuit .. taked great pleasure to fly it.
Nostalgia for me as I was passenger many times on the HS.748 between Aberdeen and Sumburgh island (defunct Danair operated) and also sometime between Goose Bay and Montreal (don't remember the airline) in the 80's
The sound in this aircraft is really near what you get on the real :)

This is a real honey bun, Markus! You sure are making it easy for me when I start my Northern Re-Supply Run -- just as soon as the DCA World Rally finishes. This makes three cabs you've done for Northern Canada carriers, now. Hot diggety!

Many thanks, for your excellent work, Markus!
