Still wish we had this racer in FSX....

***If Enough people reply to this thread***

I'd build the Questair Venture!

With the Continental IO-550, and an Empty weight of only around 1,200lbs, this plane is a rocket!

It would be a tribute to my good friend, "Tommy" Rose, and his racer #3 "Ramblin' Rose". Tommy lost his life at Reno, in 2002, when the horizontal stabilizer separated during high-speed. Two other Venture's sustained accident damage during that very race week, however, there were no other injuries.

It really is an amazing aircraft. Difficult to land! But, it would be a killer race against the Lancair IV from ORBX, and the RealAir Legacy!

Let's see how big this thread gets!

I'm excited to see folks express interest in the possibility of a Questair Venture...

This would have to be a payware project to warrant the time involved, to represent this in the quality that I would demand. Probably on the lower-scale of the price-range though, to invoke interest from those who may otherwise pass by.

If anyone is seriously interested in any kick-start investments toward this, please send me a PM.

I am currently working as partner in a free FSX group, aimed toward multiplayer air racing, aerobatics, and other contests, such as STOL. We are met sponsorship from A2A for our first sanctioned event.
