Now,now there, Mr. James, time to sort out your historical militairy aviation identification.... A B-24 has 4 engines to begin with...Aleast you're right about the twin vertical stabs... :mixedsmi:

It's the Maam-Sim B-25 Mitchell. Mind you, not a native FSX model just yet.....

@ Jan Kees : nice work, mate ! Hope they'll fit the update that is going to be released.... :)

cheers,
Jan
 
Ever since I found 'Up Front' in my grandfather's book case, I've been a big fan of Bill Mauldin and his main characters Willie and Joe:

Mr. Naki and Mr. Javis,

No its the MAAM B-25 Mitchell - 2 engines not 4

Edit: and a big PS ...fantastic repaints!
Thanks for setting me straight; me confusing a B-24 with a B-25 :kilroy: SHAMELESS:isadizzy:, I know. :icon_lol:

...

Mr. Jan Kees,

So, its coming out for FSX, with your repaints, and its FREE; who can beat that? :salute: I'll have to download it when you'll make it available, as you make it look so lovely, I can't resist; Bravo! :applause:

Thanks Gents! :wavey:


Hebrews 11:6 "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."

Thank you very much.

@javis: update? to FSX? Soon, I hope?

It's a significant update to the FS9 model, not the native FSX version yet.... We did our best however to make the port-over look and perform best as possible in FSX. A.o. the update features a fully clickable and workable VC and special adapted 2D panels for use with widescreen monitors.

cheers,
Jan
 
Correction there, James..... Our B-25 model is not free.... However all money goes to the Mid Atlantic Air Museum ( MAAM ) to help keep the real birds flying. Check out our Maam-Sim packages, including the B-25, here :

Cheers,

Thanks Mr. Jan "Javis"!

Donationware to a worthy cause sounds good to me; While I look over your website, I'll standby for any FSX release postings. Thanks Again! :wavey:
