I've uploaded a small patch, to fix something that wasn't working properly.

http://daveg.cbfsim.org/files/dh89a_V4_patch2.zip

Unzip & drop the 2 panel folders into the main Rapide folder, overwriting when asked.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

EDIT: patch updated to P2, now includes new mdl files.

Sorry one again.

Nice shots Ian.

A big thanks to the people involved in the V4 model - such a classic aircraft, and part of our aviation history to boot! Sometimes the modern mind struggles to accept that such an aircraft would ever have been used as a main-stream passenger-carrier.

Dave - your link is busted at the moment: is the server just down, or have you moved the file? I got a "file not found" error.

Cheers

I've just taken her up for a maiden flight and all I can say is....

Thanks Dave, she's absolutely astounding.
