Question regarding Milton's Avia 51 for FSX

As my last attempt elicited over 200 views but not a single response, I thought I'd try once more with an amended heading.

So, among Milton's wonderful native FSX conversions, was there ever an upload of the Avia 51 (floats and amphib in particular) released anywhere?
I can only find an FSX portover version in the library here (which I've tried but seems to give me some display issues)

Cheers, A.
 
There is no native FSX Avia 51 on that link - just the portover version I've already tried.

And thank you for your suggestion but I would not have posted this question here without already having tried the obvious search options first.

Really I'm just wondering if I've somehow missed a posting/upload in a much less obvious location (insider community knowledge, so to speak).

Milton uploads all his projects here at SOH. He links to his list in his signature. I checked yesterday, and he does not have a native FSX version in his uploads, so I would say he has not done one. He also keeps track of his projects when modified/updated by someone else. Maybe he will chime in soon on this. I believe he is presently working on updating one of the Grumman Tracker Turbo Firefighting aircraft to FSX Native. If the interest is there, he may put the AVIA 51 on his "to do" list. He has updated the AVIA 156 to native, and it is excellent.

Thanks for your interest. To answer the question, no, there has not been a native FSX release of the Avia 51.

We are just wrapping up my last new development projects, the Howard 250 tail-dragger, and the Tri-Gear 250.

Due to my declining vision, I have stopped my intense development work and will primarily focus on remaining FSX native conversions of my projects.

The Avia series is in the queue.

Sorry I missed your original question. I had backed away for a while to focus on RW projects.

Hope this answers your questions.
 
Aah...Thank you Milton, that answers that!

I'll look forward to seeing the Avias somewhere down the line, as and when. I have the Avia's you've already converted (and pretty much all the rest!) and am enjoying them immensely.

Thanks again, Gary.
 
Hi Milton,
are we going to get the Howard 250 tail-dragger, and the Tri-Gear 250 for FS2004?

Regards,
Robin

I have thought about it but lacked the motivation lately to get that done. The effort required is similar to converting to FSX native.

I will add to the request to the list for consideration.
