Rockwell Commander 685 to Turbo Commander 690

Been a while since the last update as I have multiple projects across the boards right, so I had some time to work on this one tonight. The model has now spawned winglets as shown in the renders. As of today, the exterior is about 95% complete with little left to do including the coding of the custom lighting. Interior work is only at 30% complete as I am redoing the interior walls. Of course, I could use someone to do a paintkit for the bird. Anywho, I'll post another update soon:wavey:

Oh it's absolutely gorgeous! :jump:

Not only is this one great looking and great flying aircraft, it has immense efficiency and utility as well. I can't wait to see the finished product. I have tried to get Aerosoft interested in commissioning development of this a/c for years. On the Garrett simulations maybe there is something to be learned by studying the Bronco or the Metroliner?

If I win the Powerball, I'm headed to Eagle Creek for one of their Dash 10's. You guys can keep your Moo-Two's.
 
Crikey!

Seems like I've to do this one (released in 2010 for the FS9 Veneaviones version) all over again...:







Cheers,
Markus.
 
Well, I hope so Wild Bill Kelso; it looks great!

Maybe it would look good on the AC685 that Rotohub and I are working on as well. :)

That looks great! I'll definitely get a lot of flight time out of one of those. :)

I guess I should have seen it coming after the TP version, but it's still great to see we will get both.

Actually, the 685 is the original. The 690 is being spawned off Rotohub's AC685 thanks to Euroastar350. :)
 
Buried in the pile of the 3932939843943 other projects that George is working on simultaneously.
 
Still being worked on. I had someone offer to do the entire range of the Turbo Commander, but I'm not sure if that will continue. As with most aircraft projects, I could use some manuals, especially for the cockpit area as finding diagrams is quite a chore. I didn't forget about this one, so it's not a dead project. And there is one person running Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations at the moment (myself), so projects are coming at a slow pace.
