Attention all DC-3 fans !

I enjoy seeing the raw form of the modeling, as (to me) the true "art" is in the form of what you don't see.
The end results, Jan, are gratifying as I watch your project come together. Please, carry on. :encouragement:

I'm hopeful Hansi can manage life's offerings. He's an asset on the thin side of the hobby.
 
Nothing short of OUTSTANDING!!!!! So looking forward to installing this! I do hope that upon release, it gets adequately named> Perhaps, as has already been mentioned, the 'HELLS TEETH VC' ;-)

EDIT: Ooops forgot to say.... My sincere THANKS to all concerned for their work
 
Beyond our expectations! Hopefully it will come in a single install package with Manfred's C-47?

A regular who here at my place, a good mate Greg : aka -Scaber at NZFF did a panorama of this very cockpit http://scaber.org/?page_id=49 ... this is so well done, you can explore the aircraft - this being the VIP transport up 1977 but furnished like this for the 1953 Queen visit :encouragement:
 
Hello all,
Long time forum reader and old timer user of our good old flight sim.
I m not much of a forum writer ( as you can see ;) ) but when i see history in the making i just cant stay quiet and not say thank you.

So thank you very much for all your work in bringing a new art piece to life for all of us.

Outstanding! These panoramas are fascinating. The leather seats looked almost as good as Javis's. Get a load of the warning klaxon two inches from the captain's left ear. Ouch!!

I like the panoramas where you can zoom in on a portion of the panel and read a switch or dope out what instruments are where. A guy I worked with for a short while did an excellent one for a B-17.

One "weathering" detail I noticed our VC developers may want to incorporate perhaps to a lesser extent, is the stretch or sag in the bungee cords that support the whiskey compass. Indicative of a well used aircraft.
 
Jan-

I am awestruck at the feelings evoked by your photo. I was whisked away to a cramped tilted cockpit, smelling of 100LL and hydraulic fluid, stale coffee and sweat, and with the lingering remembrances of My Mixture 965. I shall thoroughly enjoy my return to Cox's Bazar mate- totally brilliant- you made my Xmas!

Ta!

Carl
 
Hi guy, cheers and superb effort indeed, we are planning on going back to redo the with some off your very idea's.

It is amazing how simply it is to get the photo , is the shear cost off the program that glues them together and his knowledge, after Greg did the pano I jump and took the photos, this one thing that also struck me was how he could move in such a small area ... I had to be off the aircraft simply not to bump anything, strange as Greg point out the light also affected it, being to bright in places - but the end result is spectacular.

Yes he can also do the zoom onto the specific panel and gauges but in the time frame we have - before the crowds arrive into the Museum we have to close it up and be out hence the reason for multi-pul visits .... lotta fun tho :encouragement:

With what Jan has come up with and Mike doing his Wizard stuff, get it all glued the Manfred and his teams DC-3/C-47 ... Ted's and sound pack CRIKEY :eagerness:
