Good news and bad news

You want the bad news first !?

Alright. Unfortunately we have to make just a little money n order to be able to continue our work, justify our time, and above all, pay for the hardware and software ..... and so we have to charge a modest amount for our products. Although we DO also produce freeware from time to time.

The good news?

Simon has made an expansion pack for our Lockheed Hudson, now adding the MkIII in military and civilian versions AND the Lodestar Model 6 in civil and military liveries !
In the shop next week !

The Hudson Expansion Pack will be available from my webshop next week. Separate donations for Simon can be made there too.... there's a little graphic on the right to click on).
The Expansion Pack will cost 5 Euros (ex VAT) and will need the full pack as prerequisite.
 
lol i bought the full pack several months ago..but still havent installed it yet...not ill wait to get this expansion set after next payday......talk about a procrastinator...
 
Sounds good to me, François. I have mine installed, but unfortunately, haven't fired her up yet. Will be getting this add on pack, also.

Never mind any "bad news" (which I can´t find either here), I´ll take the good news!!!

Those new liveries look great, looking forward to strip them on to this well used plane in my hangar!!!

Francois, Looking at this particular aircraft paint I cannot tell if the guns have been removed or not. Can you tell me if they have been removed please.

I have some repaints for my own use and if the guns are no longer there I will adjust them and upload them here. I have wanted to do more and post them but problems with my sugar levels have played havoc with things like my concentration and ability to sit for any length of time at my computer.

Also my credit card is armed and cocked for the release of the expansion pack.
 
This all seems like good news to me. But can you us even more news about the progress of the D-Day scenery? When will it be released?
 
I bought the Hudson at the special introductory price and still can't believe I got such a fine and comprehensive package so cheaply! Will fork over the cash for the expansion (still a killer price) with the greatest of pleasure!

Keep up the good work Francois.
 
Thanks everybody ! This weekend (and Whit Monday today) I have been working on other things AND visiting the WW2 MiliTracks event (see Ferry's photos in the other forum !)..... but the new Hudson will see the daylight this week.

Some more pictures to answer questions...... no guns ! And oh, the 'oxygen' switch has inverted text.... will be patched.

As for the Normandy scenery.... I'll post a separate thread on that !
