Baz you have done some awesome work in the past but this is the best yet...takes me back to the 1983 Microprose flight sim Solo Flight. You are a genius Amigo. Yours is superior to that one and it sold for $99.00. I want to see more like this for FSX :O)))

Cute. This really would be interesting to see for the sim, and also serves as an apparently effective distraction away from the currently identified issues with the "other" Chipmunk.
Hopefully we'll see this novelty released for fun, and the developer will choose to at least acknowledge those points made in the other thread for the proper aircraft, rather than just make light of those pointing out their concerns through exercises such as this.

Ah, how many hot, humid, summer evenings did a similar model airplane take me away to distant lands! Every once in a while, you got it trimmed just perfect, and had a perfect takeoff and landing, pure Heaven!
Tsk tsk! An X-Acto razor saw gave a much cleaner cut! I see they're still made, too...

or what?
For those interested, there is also a cardboard Spitfire available here int the FSX files:
Card_Mk1A.zip

Sad to see that developer arrogance is alive and well within the FS community, as exemplified above.
Hope you have a better day, and best of luck with your Chipmunk release. Luckily we have other devs out there who are able to listen to critiques. Understood if you do not wish to act on those observations or critiques, but ignoring, and especially mocking or disrespecting customers is the wrong way to go. Again, good luck with your "artistic interpretation" of the DHC-1.
Still looking forward to this cardboard model, looks like it could be fun (beyond serving as a device to divert criticism and mock potential customers).
Also, yes, I did see the portion of the comment a few hours ago that is now deleted...
Sincerely best wishes, as we're all in this niche community together.

My dear chap,
I would sincerely suggest that you revisit your last few responses and have a good rethink.
At any time have I said I wouldn't listen? Did I not show you the wing profiles for example? Do you really think we don't listen?
At no time have I ever or will ever dis-respect a customer. How dare you even suggest such a thing.
The comment that got the last thread closed was by a developer and SOH person. That crosses the line in both professionalism and ethics. I have right of reply my friend. Take that away and we can all go home.
Nobody is being " arrogant" and I think you will find that a large majority of folks here would name me (after over 10 years of membership) as being the last person to be in any way "arrogant".
Developers in general produce this stuff to keep a hobby alive. Many recent posts have shown a saddening and increasing loss in humour and the ability to accept fun as a staple of this hobby. it is a game to be enjoyed. That is why you will find Microsoft have categorised it under Microsoft Games.
I say sad because these people will ultimately kill this hobby which for many including myself has been a source of relief from the stresses and tiresome problems of everyday life.
But, I believe, inevitably, developers will leave the hobby (as many already have) because they are heartily sick of the constant back-biting, inflammatory comment over $20 products that take insane amounts of time, effort and skill to produce. Tolerance and humour have always and traditionally held at bay the feeling that in a real world all developers are crazy to do this stuff for the remuneration they get. Your type of comment and others will certainly put the nails in the coffin. Congratulations and good luck indeed in trying to find a variety of inexpensive new releases for your hobby anytime soon.
You can close this now Roger, thankyou. They have succeeded in what they set out to do. Spoil things for everybody else.
