WOW.....speechless and breathless all at once.
I did not think that the Twin Beech could ever be beat....but this has all the right stuff to possibly pull that off.

Thank you so much Milton and indeed the entire team for the continued pleasure you give all of us with your incredible creations.

If you are taking requests...I would like to second that Lockheed Electra as only you can do it. :applause:

I'm lovin' that civie version! Question - will that one have it's own container to reflect the lower weight?

PilatusTurbo · Apr 27, 2009

First post back here in a while, but I gotta say... The civilian version looks like it will just be sweet! Coming from you guys, it can't lose.

Thanks Milton and Crew :ernae:

Tom,

Yes, Fliger_747 have discussed two containers. One for the three versions with the added weight, one for the "civie" and the Experimental versions. Alternatively, we could put in the parameters and comment out all the stores, then you could add as needed, or leave them active and adjust in FS.

LOL Pointy ... well, just think what we've been through. This model has over 1100 parts and the project has over 500 files. Ughhh! But, it has been great fun.

Hang in there a bit longer while we try to sort out any remaining issues. :isadizzy:

Well thanks Stefan ... we appreciate that. Ummmm, no requests, sorry. We have a couple others in the final phases and one about 40% so we will be busy till year-end.

Pack it up either way you like Milton! :jump:

PilatusTurbo · Apr 27, 2009

As you know, Milton: If you need a test pilot, send it on over any time. :ernae:

Your guys' D18 is still my primary plane. It is just the best behaved, most detailed, and realistically flying aircraft I have. I love how you expertly captured the freecastoring tailwheel, and its suspension animations. That's something I really pay attention to, as I'm a taildragger nut, and I just love how you always get a little (but important) detail like that right. :ernae:

whitehawk_2009 · Apr 27, 2009

Yeah, Milton's works are masterpieces, to be sure! Can't wait for this one and the conversion for CFS2.

We in the basement were blessed recently with some B-25 gunships and this will make a nice addition to the lineup!

dumb question...but is this a real..IE

roduction aircraft?...how many were built?...awesome looking

fliger747 · Apr 27, 2009

Though an excellent aircraft, with few issues in flight test, By the time it was on the scene the B-29's had priority on the engines and the A26 priority on the remote turrets. Many excellent planes were never set into production due to the "we need it now" and the "don't want to interrupt production for a change" aspects of wartime production.

So just two prototypes were produced!

Cheers: Tom

fliger747 · Apr 28, 2009

Dang! Even I am holding my breath! Always a few goodies make it that are missing from the beta's!
