New D.H. 83 Fox Moth!

My pleasure :) There are three aircraft in the package - G-ACEJ, G-ADHA & G-AOJH representing the three main canopy types.
As usual, the aircraft is built for FS9 but I'm informed will perform in FSX as well.
Cheers:ernaehrung004:

Bugger - Flightsim seems to be unavailable. Are they open cockpit, British "Speed Moth" canopy and Canadian bubble canopy.

Helped a guy build 5 new Fox Moth fuselages, 30 yrs ago, so have an interest in the old girl....
 
Have started on a few Fox Moth paints - who can resist de Havilland?!
Screenshot taken in FSX.

Nice repaint, Peter!

Might I make a request for a US Civil repaint with an NC-number on the tail? I just thought of a great scenario for the Fox Moth
as a fictional US Mail plane, imported from the UK by a wealthy benefactor for use covering the Great Plains of the US...

Appreciate the work you're doing for an awesome freeware airplane!

:applause:
 
Some more in the works from Garry J. SMITH at FORD-TRI-MOTOR

Greetings,
See the WIP picture, Garry is hard at work on some very nice repaints for the girl!!!

Larger Picture

Hi Good People,

Edward just sent me a quick request to present a larger picture of the one he posted:wiggle:

So here it is - Edwards is planning a lot of liveries for this girl to be released in the new year - have done my test liveries and these are the results of my tinkering.

:applause: Mr. Watkins has uploaded G-ACCB at flightsim.com, i wonder what are chances of seeing some Kiwi Fox Moths?
 
Aaaah - Stan Smith's DH83C in it's current incarnation.
I helped build the new fuselage on that one.....
 
Hi SPman, Thank you for your contributions on the model mate - we at the Ford Project appreciate the effort and hopefully our livery developments will do your hard work justice.:wiggle:

On the model - no, not I - it was on the real thing.
 
No Worries - just my FS focus:wavey: - but Wow - that would have been even more fun - to be working on a genuine historical aircraft :wiggle:
