Huub, I do have a vague memory of this aircraft because my father worked at Blackbushe & we would visit with him at weekends as our trip out for us - it really was for my father to keep an eye on the servicing of Airwork Ltd aircraft - he was Chief Inspector/ Servicing Manager at the time. I don't remember getting close to it though - memory not too good I was only 10 at the time! Quite a lot of detail available on the internet & the wing construction was different but was strong enough under static test, just a pity about the central structure.

FS2004/FSX/P3D Parnall Hendy 302
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Civilian Props
Description: FS2004/FSX/P3D Parnall Hendy 302. Manufactured by Parnall & Co for Basil Henderson, it was his second design using his patented wing construction. Both the Hendy Hobo and the Hendy 302 were test flown and raced by Edgar Percival and when Percival bought the design rights he incorporated a lot of the Hendy 302 ideas into his Gull series, so this aircraft can be likened to being the progenitor of the Percival Gull, Vega Gull and Proctor. Only one was built but it was used as an engine test bed and had subsequent modifications. It was withdrawn from use in 1938. Designed for FS2004, it will portover to FSX and P3D, although there are texture shine problems and the usual non-click spots in P3D.

FS2004 Meteor U16
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military - Jets
Description: FS2004 Meteor U16. This model represents as far as possible the Meteor U16 WK800 that was flown at Llanbedr until 2004. The real aircraft resides at the Boscombe Down Museum at Old Sarum. It is a bit fanciful in that it tries to show how it might have been flown with the Advanced Ground Station if TV camera technology was as good as the current 21st century devices. Trials were conducted in the '90s using technology of the period, but it was decided that it not safe enough at the time in the Llanbedr environment. The model can however be flown as a remote radio control aircraft or as a conventional aircraft. Port over to FSX possible with only engine start problem work around using default aircraft necessary.

FS2004/FSX Miles M12 Mohawk
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Civilian Props
Description: FS2004/FSX Miles M12 Mohawk. Designed expressly for Charles Lindbergh in 1935 during his period of 'exile' in Europe for long range flights. This aircraft has been rebuilt for static display at the RAF Museum in Hendon. The interior is based on the 360 degree camera view obtainable at eyerevolution.com. This model was originally uploaded to Britsim earlier in 2013. The Menasco Buccaneer engine was not a success as it was prone to overheating, although Charles Lindbergh obviously managed to keep it within limits. This model emulates this, so keep an eye on the CHT and oil temp! It will port over to FSX with some exceptions.
