This one was again mentioned in another post so, it has been a while. I thought I would bring this back to the surface in hopes of hearing something positive.

Just wondering if there's been any further developments of this Fokker G1 ?

I would love to see this, and the paint templates if the opportunity was there.

Huub mentioned something about the G.1 in an e-mail. He'll tell you yourself when he reads this.

After two years trying to trace Michel, I have given up. From what I understand even his long-time friends from Reasauravia have not been able to contact him.

As I think it is a waste to not release this model I have decided to release it after I have finished the textures. The Fokker G-1 is a Dutch aircraft and is therefore quite different from the usual British and German models. Therefore I will need to write a lengthy readme with instruction how to fly this model. (For instance this aircraft had a start pedal.....)

Have patience, but the model will be released. For a particular reason I'm aiming on a date beginning May.

Cheers,
Huub

That's great news and probably even a wise decision you make Huub !
Make the Dutch proud.......:salute:

Groet,

I hope that Michel is OK. It is unusual for someone to just drop off of the radar screen without even close friends knowing where he is at.

 

[PeteHam]

That's great news Huub

Thanks for your efforts.

Pete.

I'm looking forward to this one, she's a beauty. The modeling by Michel is brilliant, Huub's textures are equally so. And thanks to the beta testers and all .

If there's anything I can do to help, let me know, I'll be glad to do whatever I can.

PS. pssst, don't tel anyone, lol......

...and she flies wonderfully, bearing in mind I have no idea how the real one flew, but she's an absolute joy to fly....

OMG! That's Huub the pilot there.

Beautiful model and interior, gauges etc. Wow!

Does it have landing gear? I'm a leg man myself.

 

[Ferry_vO]

OMG! That's Huub the pilot there.

And Michel is the gunner.

Does it have landing gear? I'm a leg man myself.

No, we Dutch used rubber bands for take-off, and large nets to 'land'. Saved us a bit of money on the landing gear.

Huub: Somewhere around the 10th..?

Edit: March 16th is a nice date too...

Yep I'm aiming for either 5 or 10 May.

The gunner has Michel's face and the pilot mine, this was a small joke from Michel. And Milton, the model has a landing gear....

Cheers,

Huub,

Is that traffic on Schiphol? Me thinks I see a DC3? It didn't have a working afcad yet. Made one yourself?



Cees

 

[huub vink]

I wish I could Cees, but the traffic is default Golden wings 3 traffic. When I had Hauke Keitel's COndors installed they were using Schiphol as well.

Cheers,
Huub
