Good morning, and sorry for the delay between this and the A-109 post. I happened to punch the button right as the site went down for maintenance last night. Anyway not to much information is going to be put out on this bird at the moment. The exterior is nearly completed, and we have started working on the VC. Will do my best to answer any questions, but most of them are probably better left answered by Colin as I do not know a whole lot about this project. Certaintly is well done with a lot of detail though. Down to the springs on door handles, HF radio antenna wires, and the battery thermal overflow tube to name a few. As always feel free to comment, and thanks for taking the time to look.

Dang, someone I know always wanted a B55 for FSX as he co-owned one. Sold his plane a couple, three months ago. Timing is everything, isn't it?

If you need a beta boy for it, LMK and I'll see if he's open to the idea.
 
Yep, Geof did, he'll still be happy though I bet!

Looks great, if it's the same quality as the 310 I'll probably buy it.
 
Geoff is already part of the team. Which is how we wound up doing it. Like always trying to push the envelope. With a bigger team of people now we should be able to avoid a lot of the initial problems we had with the 310's release.
 
A bunch of high quality issues under way over in Colin's shop. They just keep getting better! Amazing what can be done in FSX.

Cheers: T
 
This is interesting seeing different models getting done/released. Competition (meaning in a joking way of course. NOT!!) Milvis is to Beechcraft AS<as> Carenado is to Cessna.

Only better!!


But, Milvis releases a paintkit with their models!! :ernae:

+1

Looks to be another nice model :salute:</as>
 
Thanks for the comments. Is definately by no means a competition. We actually rack our brains behind the scenes wondering how us developers sometimes wind up working on the same stuff when no one has mentioned anything before.. We do strive to release the paint kit with models.. Even though I have no clue how to repaint (and thanks to Gunnar and Jankee's for doing my personal requests over the years!) I know it is frustrating not being able to paint the bird how YOU want it. So it is just personal for us that we include it at (and sometimes before) release.
