Maarten, my Friend - very humbled by your kind words for one of my early attempts - Thank YOU, Sir :)

Great videos and paint, Sir!!!

Perhaps a revisit to the DC-4 would be a nice future project.

Many more sounds yet to come; including an all new payware/donationware DC-3 soundset currently undergoing a rather long beta test.
A Bristol Hercules package including separate twin and 4 engine subfolders is at a similar stage in development - near beta.

Freeware sounds nearing release include an all new Beech 18 soundset and a Bristol Centaurus package for all you Seafury fans.

I'm now working full time on FS development work - some projects will have to go the payware/donationware route purely for practical reasons.
All new sound packages will be for both FS9 and FSX.

My longterm dedication to Milton's awesome projects is no secret - so by working fulltime, I now intend to increase my level of participation on Shupe team work.

Many thanks, Maarten and Milton.
 
Thank you very much for the kind words, guys.

I have to clarify about the DC-4 repaint. Most of it is Jens's original South African Airways paint featurig the white tail with blue band (included in his FS2004 and FSX DC-4/C-54 V.3). I missed an orange-tailed SAA DC-4 in my hangar and since noone else made such a repaint, I decided to modify Jens's paint. Also I made some modifications with regard to portholes. To be honest, for my own use initially.

But I am to ask Jens's permission to make this repaint available for others too. In fact I never liked to make repaints just for myself. The fun is to share them with others through the three sites I prefer. So hopefully the orange tail livery will be available soon.

Nigel, your projects sound awesome! Once realised they will be very welcome in all aircraft to produced that mechanical music. I sometimes wonder what the great American avant-garde composer George Antheil (1900-1959), who in his music explored the modern sounds of the early 20th century -musical, industrial, mechanical-would have thought of this use of airplane sounds. In fact, he used propeller sounds in his music and he wrote a solo piano Second Sonata, "The Airplane" (1921).

Cheers,
Maarten
