I didn't realise that the '57' was so sleek in design. Very clean lines and a rather nice looking airplane to boot. Looking Good, Milton.:medals:

Good to see her up and flying... even if she's still in development. It's about time you went over and got her out of Nigel's hangar...:icon_lol:

Don't be a spoil-sport!

That would be like taking candy from a baby...:icon_eek:

And in any case only one person knows where the hangar is and he already has his own '57!:kilroy:

Seriously Milton .... are you finding time to sleep and eat . :jump:

What with the updated Dash 7 coming out shortly and this Avia 57 in the final stages of production, along with ALL the other wonderful creations of late, it's kinda hard to keep up and get sufficient time in each aircraft to be proficient. :icon_lol: :icon_lol:

Thanks for all of them especially the Avia 51 & 56 series :applause: :applause: ..... and I'm really looking forward to the 57. :jump:

Pete.

Better to be safe than sorry. Look!! He only brings out the '57' at night, no wonder I couldn't find it. Recon the Sea Fury just blew my cover, you can hear it comming from a long way off. BTW Nigel, have a look at your PM's, mate.... we gotta keep young Matt on his toes. :salute:

Surprise, Behold!

An awesome and genuine 'Milton Blue'.

One of a kind, in glorious BROAD DAYLIGHT for the delight of all who see her.

Take a good look Gentlemen, for as of today, she is officially in the engine shop and will not re-emerge this silent!
 
she looks fantastic! but needs some clothing and a voice! one thing's for sure... she has a body... and a mighty fine one it is too! :jump:
 
Really looking forward to the '57'.. once she gets "Some clothing and a voice" as it was so eloquently put, definately a beauty... and those BIG TIRES! I can see myself now, sitting under the wing, sipping a long island iced tea. Beneath The Copper Sun, after a day of flying. African Safari's, bush flying in Kenya... I can't wait!

By the way Nigel, A friend asks me the other day... "Say BB, isn't that your Sea Fury that just flew over the Officers Club"? I tells him: "That can't possibly be my Sea Fury... I left mine back in the hangar at Townsville". :salute:

Bravo -Bravo ; you have an excellent appreciation for all good things in aviation, and I expect in all walks of life.

I'll own up to 'borrowing' the SF - I just can't pass up a ride in a 'homesick angel' even if I tried. Lol.

To the Avia 57!
Now what you have been graphically describing, is generally refered to as a 'TUSKER' in that wonderous corner of the globe.

And that sounds like an awesome invitation to a real SOH one.

But before the Tusker, comes the work, and there's plenty of that to go around, Gentlemen... :wavey:

ps: Matt, not too scarce I hope buddy!
 
nah i'll be slow but will still get my PM's as and when, but no FS9 work for a short while as i have a few contracts to work on for IRIS :salute:
 
Update for the Avia 57 VC; still a WIP, of course.
Also a 2d Panel shot.

Hope to have the interior completed and mapped this week.

Can't wait...

Well done Milton, and the whole team! :salute:

In good old Sussex talk;---------overwhelming!
Regards to the 'Old Town' when you next pop over! :guinness:
