Skysim Mirage

Brilliant model, It was pulled from the shelves a few years back, I have heard a version two is on its way but be'ss a wait.
 
I don't think it will be under the Skysim label , many freewares would suffice tho won't equal , all that can be done currently .
 
I have the original (bought it the day it was released). Since then (as noted) the original version was pulled and a new version was under build. I tested and still have that raw alpha version which shows a significant improvement over the first version but I do not know that status of the upgrade plans (and prefer to let that be spoken by the proper persons at the proper time). In the meantime, the freeware Restauravia versions are quite nice functional.
 
I've had it from early on and despite waiting patiently for the 'update' I doubt it will ever happen.
People do move on to newer and more profitable projects.
 
I bought the original release but when I wanted to install it on a new computer I had so many problems and no success. Because of that I would never knowingly buy from that source/team again. In my opinion the Restauravia Mirages are excellent and trouble free.

Does it come with afterburners because from what ive seen I havent seen any flames coming out the back.
 
The problem with the Restauravia Mirage is not the quality, but the selection of Mirage III models, only the B and C. Only the Skysim package covers the much more produced IIIE and R models (with a healthy selection of sub models as well). Almost all export Mirage III's were based on the E model (only Israel and South Africa bought the earlier C).

Surprisingly enough Tom.. fighters don't go everywhere on AB!!

If the Restauravia models don't float your boat and you want to spend some money.. take a look at the Metal2Mesh Mirage 2000.

Can't add anything to what has already been said. Although Mark did mention the Mirage a couple weeks ago.
But that doesn't mean he's ready to work on it again. Probably just messing with me.
