Sibwings Bird Dog Website changes!

Wow, I think will come close to the Lotus L-39 as the 'best of the best' so far in FSX. I can actually smell that interior.

One thing that does not look quite right (to me anyway), those 'bonedomes' have no visible visors, tinted or otherwise. Also a bit of 'homemade embelishment' would look on the Vietnam pilot's helmets.

Sorry, just a bit of silly nit-picking.

This is one product I am going to buy, with or without visors!
 
Can you put a mask (not an oxygen mask) on that guy in the OD livery ?

Either that or a throat microphone, we used to use 'throat mikes' on rotary wing aircraft in the 70's and 80's a lot, I guess it may have been the same on Bird Dogs. They are more comfortable in hot climates, but give you two red marks on your neck that can last for hours!!

Yep, that was the original date that the project Announcement was posted. It goes on to say that the beta testing would begin in January of 2009 and release to follow sometime in March of 09.

Based on the screens that Nick has supplied us with, I would guess that it's quickly reaching a bursting point, lol. Be calm and maintain. . . .everything great comes to those who wait, lol.
