We have already received positive responses from 13 members and six of them are the model builders who have given permission to release the MAW aircraft that were pending for the next phase. Kevin and Gregory from AvHistory have also responded in the affirmative. Here is a list of the aircraft that we intend to release in the fall with the update. We have some work to do to get all of them finished up. We may also be able to include the new PBY that Ted is working on along with his "Tank Killer from Hell".

Baltimore Mk II Finished
Baltimore Mk III Finished
Hurricane MK IID Finished
BF 109F-2 No pit
BF 109F-2 trop No pit
BF 109F-4 No pit
BF 109F-4 trop No pit
Ju 52 gunship Needs finalizing
Ju 52 Bomber Needs finalizing
Ju 290 Needs finalizing
Ju 87D 3 Unfinished pit
B-17G Finished, (this is just a skin upgrade)
Me 323 Needs pit
Seafire 2c Finished
Spitfire 9c Finished
Spitfire 5b trop Finished
Spitfire 5c trop Finished

We will also be including a full selection of US Army and Navy aircraft for the Italian campaign, these will include all current bombers and fighters that were in the theatre at that time with new skins. We will also be adding additional US Navy carriers.

Best Regards,

Steve
 
:woot:I'll keep my fingers crossed, plus everything else I can crossed too (plus a few things I shouldn't cross). Won't cross the wife though - prefer for her not to be angry.
 
It looks like the MAW Fall update is going to be a go for sure now. We have set up the core group of Team members and they are as follows:

Ledzeppelin.........Loic--- Campaigns,research, spawns and missions
Middle................John---Testing, installer assistance, forum admin
RBP....................Bob----Installer, FTP file structure, Global Layer
Capt. Winters...... Rob----Aircraft and skins
Bravo/4...............John---Aircraft and skins
Talon..................Al------Ships, missions and spawns
O-1 Driver...........Steve---Effects,weather,weapons,missions and spawns

Grizzly (Kasey) will continue to head up our testing and Nonato will continue with mission building. Kasey will be listing and recognizing his test team which has grown later in this thread.

Rob has several people assisting him currently with aircraft painting that we hope will continue on the MAW project. We do not have the full credits list from Rob yet but I believe all of the following have contributed their work to ETO, Nigel, Alx, Ronnybength,Brian, Jaycee, Bravo/4 and others.

We will be adding a lot of contributors as the project moves along. We will begin work on the update as soon as the ETO 1.2 update that is currently in testing is released.

Loic did the original campaign for MAW as well as West 40 so you know the quality of work that he does. The ACC team currently involved in ETO are spread too thin currently with TOW and Summer committments.

Most importantly I would like to recognize the entire MAW team, with special mention of our Italian partners on the team including Pietro,Luca and Alx that gave us so much and continue to give with their generous approval of this update and aircraft permissions. The AvHistory Team kevin and Gregory have been generous and supportive of our effforts and we could not have done ETO without their help.
Ted and Greg law along with Mathias have been the best partners you could ask for and the quality of their work is exceptional.

We have lost two good men and valuable MAW team members, Gerard Van der Harst and Ed Wilson. We should always remember and say a prayer for them when we fly MAW.

Best Regards

Steve Dunn

Ted is working on a PBY as well as everything else he's doing??? Steady on chaps, you'll burn him out too! But if you want to do this, Ted, you'll get an enormous thank you from me! :wavey::ernae::friday:

DOS MAXIMUS (also online game/TS Host)
Grizzly50
middle (also on the development list)

Thanks Kasey,

Also I would like to add that Ted (NachtPiloten) has been drafted on to the team as a Director and will be responsible for Aircraft development, scenery and terrain. His rate of pay wil be the same as the other Directors (absolutely nothing).
Why would these guys want to work this hard for that pay.

We have also heard from Alx thanks to Pietro who talked with him by phone and he has given us his blessing to do the update.
