Fairchild 24 Series is away!

After 4 or 5 Aussie repaints of this great aircraft I have decided to clear my paint shop of the F-24 for now and move on to other aircraft. I have enjoyed doing these repaints but feel the need to move on to other models like the GAS Stinson and revisit the WBS P-51D.

Also the Auster, DH-89, Dave Garwood's Mosquito and Beaufighter will be making their way into the paint shop in the near future.

In between all this I am also preparing to move house to warmer climes so the production will be a little slow for now.
 
Thanks fellas. Bill, as I live in a Government provided house I am in the process of getting rid of over 20 years of 'I won't throw this away as I might need it later' stuff' and when I have finished that I will ask the Department of Housing to find me a house on the Central Coast. As I live on my own in a 4 bedroom house and the department requires 4 bedroom houses they approached me to downsize which I agreed to provided I could have a house on the Coast so I can be near my son who will help me out as I am starting to experience mobility (left knee that needs replacing and arthritis in the left hip and lower spine) and other health related problems. It could take another 3 months for them to get me a house in the area where I want.

So in the meantime when time permits the paint shop will be open but not as often as it has been recently.
 
Have just finished and uploaded a French paint to FlightSim. This was a ex-RAF Argus III, returned to the USAAF after the War and disposed of to private owner Louis Pierre Loriot as F-BEDX in October 1949. I cannot find out why the large 'ESSO' badges were applied but it seemed a good paint subject.

cheers, Pete W
 
PC Aviator is having a 10% off end-of-month sale. Combined with the 40% off deal, I just picked up this beauty for the unbelievable price of $13.47 US. NICE.
 
Why do they always go on sale after I buy it?

Hey Rudyjo,

Speak with whoever you purchased it from and request if its possible to get the discount. Sometimes they will do it, or at least attach it to your account for another purchase.

Thanks Bill. I bought it from JustFlight.
Flight Simulator has been my hobby for over 10 years, it has certainly given me 1000's of hours of enjoyment, breaking it down by the amount I've paid for various payware planes, it is very cheap compared to what some people put into a hobby.
I wouldn't think of asking for a refund for part of it.

Thanks for all the work that you developers put into this!
 
I'm glad I looked at this thread this morning. Just purchased and downloaded.
Looking at my emails this is my 8th Lionheart GA aircraft. Make that the 9th,
forgot about the Kodiac. Thanks Bill!

Hey Frank,

Most welcome. Good to have a returning customer. :)
 
Calling Peterwatkings2, do you copy?

You had a reddish repaint of a Finnish prewar/wartime Fairchild. Where did you find information about that paint or is it fictional?
