Dave Molyneaux has been producing a very nice Airspeed Envoy, in different versions. This aircraft was the initial stage of what became the Airspeed Oxford.
This aircraft, that you can find on Fligtsim, converts easily, and many repaints have been made by Peter Watkins, including military versions, as the aircraft served in the RAF, and even in the Luftwaffe.
Here are two more versions:
one is for Kroatian Army, which used 2 Airspeed Envoy as liaison and recco aircrafts.
The other one is for a south-african version
Seven machines were ordered for joint use by the South African Air Force and South African Airways,
with three being delivered in military form and four delivered to South African Airways, where they
were used on the air route between Johannesburg - Bloemfontein - Port Elizabeth on 12 October 1936.
Each of these seven aircraft could be transformed by a work crew of four within four hours from the
transport version into a light bomber or reconnaissance aircraft.
In this configuration the crew consisted of four; pilot, navigator, radio operator and gunner.
S, I modified an original texture by Peter Walkins, and added a Lisunov Li-2 turret.
I know the turret should be more flat on top, but this the best I could do...
The first repaint can probably be used also for FS2004, but I fear that the SAAF repaint not work for FS 2004, due to the added turret.
Both aircrafts will be up-loaded within the next hours
Good flights to all of you.
Comments and questions are welcome
