What spectacular screen shots I have been seeing in this thread. I am very soon to be purchasing this gem. Fantastic work.
Click to expand...

I should really be charging the developers for my screenshots, or try to get a discount or something... ;-)
 
DevelopeR (no plural, all by one man!). And yes, you could try :biggrin-new: But our thanks for the free publicity is eternal !
 
What's the flight handling like, there's a quite spirited flight display in NZ on video that shows how it can be flown in real life and it's quite an agile machine in those hands?
 
We made it as close to the real thing as possible.... without having flown the real machine ourselves. It is pretty agile indeed :)
 
Instead of the K6285 I decided to do the N9742, as this is the one from the Airfix kit.

As said it is just a quick edit. But for those who want it, I will try to upload it tomorrow (evening in my time-zone)



 
I'll be adding that one to the hangar, thanks Huub.:encouragement:
Made that kit a couple of times in the distant past.
 
Sorry, but Champions League football (soccer) kept me away from my computer. So I didn't succeed to upload the file before my deadline. However there is more, as a sharp fellow member noticed. The Airfix model came with B roundels (see pictures below). However when you look closely at the black and white picture which shows K6285 and the R9742 in formation, you will see the real aircraft had type A roundels on the wing instead of the B roundels as supplied with the kit and which were already standard in autumn 1940. The roundels on the R9742 (in the back) even seem to be in the "old" position close to the wing tips. Thers is also a difference between the roundels on the fuselage from the R9742 and those on the K6285.

The wings also had 2 yellow squares on them which were painted with special paint which was used to detect gas (Thanks for this information David!)

As I would like to change the wings to depict the real aircraft, I will need so extra time.

Excellent Huub.. looking forward to it and more if they're to come. Just keep your tv switched off:biggrin-new:
