Preservation of the models by David Molyneaux and textures by Peter Watkins.

Thanks for the interesting and useful list. What could be done to complete list and particularly share the availabilities? So f.i. I have some of the missing models. Let us know how we eventually and if desirably should or could proceed.

It would be great to have Dave's models in a separate category in the library, similar to the GAS entry.
That would really preserve his addons in one place. :jump:

and likewise, as remarked upon by @arl previously, the late Peter Watkins' repaints, especially for FS2004, which are, largely, nigh unavailable on the web, and also the ones for FSX; Watkins' repaints indeed add a rather special je ne sais quoi especially to Molyneaux's already tremendous efforts, and perhaps others' as well. Accordingly, with the requisite permissions naturally, Watkins' repaints ought to be likewise preserved at SOH :ernaehrung004:
 
Of course tonight , while watching a long and utterly incomprehensible film on TV, I have now found the original Southern Martlet source file.

So the only one that is missing from my files is the Scion Float plane. I think Gavin C may be able to supply that one.

I can get in touch with Maria,Peter's widow,and ask the questions if that would help us out.
 
To say that Peter was prolific would be an understatement.

Just for Dave's planes, I have some 200 or so FS9 repaints, and about 80 odd FSX repaints. There is a fair level of overlap there.

Then you could move on to Rob Richardson's and Keith Paine's planes....:)

IIRC,he also did some for Just Flight's old FS9 Spitfire 1 to 24 package too

Gentlemen,good news.
I contacted Pete's widow,Maria,and asked if she would kindly give permission as virtual curator of Peter's legacy of paints for the late Dave Moly's,Keith Paine's et all's virtual "hangars" for them to be hosted here at SOH along with those great modellers aircraft.

Here's Maria's reply:

"Hi Mark. Pete would have gladly given his permission if he had been here. I agree to give permission on behalf of Pete and thank everyone for remembering him. Kind Regards Maria"

So fellows,there we have it,Maria's permission to host Pete's work and she thanks everyone for remembering Peter.
 
Thanks Mark,

Now that we have permssion to host his repaints, I have asked my fellow staff members how we will proceed with Peter's legacy. There are some different options. But in any case we will need the support of our librarians.

And please let Maria know that we really appreciate her permission and that we will do what is in our power to keep the memory alive.

Cheers,
Huub

Thank you Huub,you're most welcome. I will pass on your thanks to Mrs Maria Watkins.

I have three of Pete's paints(2 of 6 FTS and 1 of 7FTS,Ternhill) in Keith Paine's PProv T.1,if required I'll happily set them up for hosting and pass them to our librarians for posting up in the pertinent section once everything is sorted and in place.
