Cool, but I have to wonder about that prop!

It's the Lyons' original, so lets remember that no changes have been made for changes sake. It's a faithful conversion, with full permission and great work from Craig!:wiggle:
 
Ahh...I guess the PM about donating a prop won't fly then, but the offer stands.

Thanks and I guess that a little whittlin' on that prop wouldn't be amiss.

The airport btw is of course Bill Womack's Plum Island.
 
Argh!

Not only did I not recognize the modeling heritage...I also criticized it! :eek:
Bill Lyons was (and still is) one of the greats in this hobby.

I humbly beg forgiveness from the Flight Sim community for my actions in this matter. :redface:

I'll second that. I bought almost all of Bill's models, they were excellent. I was hoping someone would convert them to FSX. Where might we find this one? :jump:
 
Hi Roger,

You know if the Piper Tri-Pacer is on the to do list too?
Would save me a lot of work.....

Cheers, Rob
 
@ N2056, the prop was just a test prop and i will update it with the original once released.

@ Rob, i plan to convert all of the custom classics apart from the Graf and the business jet as requested by mr Bill Lyons. I have other projects on my list to do aswell so there are no release dates for the planes, myself or Roger will keep everyone upto date.

Good stuff, so I'll choose another project:ernae: Looking forward to it!

Wow, great!

I'd love to see native FSX version of Lyons Goose. It was much more immersive than default FSX one.

Don't see why you need forgiveness. You gave (constructive) criticism, which could improve the model if work was done to it. Doesn't matter who built it, nobody is perfect.

Agreed! But Robert is a gentleman and gave a gentleman's response:ernae:
 
It's great to see Bill Lyon's work live on in FSX! He was ahead of his time in flight simulation! I am glad he has found another hobby he enjoys. He gave us so much!

Hi Italo,
It could be some time as Craig wants to get it flying as best as possible in order to do credit to Bill's creation, which I greatly admire him for.
