No the initial release will have only wing views, we are hoping to get work on the VC done at a later stage.

Nice model!! Is Air Nelson going too operate this a/c on your paint job?

Looks sweet. Another Fantastic option for us turboprop fan-boys (and girls)

I only just installed an AI ATP for a West Air Luxembourg AI flightplan last week. Didn't know anything about the aircraft until then (such a n00b). Will yaz be shipping a custom sound pack for it? Looks like the RR-Dart engines were on the F27's too possibly so I spose a sound-set from them would be close?

We have a soundset being built yes, the dart would be no where near an ATP as they are Allison engines, I am told the same as the Dash 8 tho different prop configuration gives them a different sound

Actually Pratt and Whitney PW126A engines

Similar to those on a Q300 but bigger.

Convairs/Hercs/Orions have Allisons.

Whoops I stand corrected, yes the pratt and whitney, its the SAAB which were Allisons (same as the hercules)

Nope again.

Saabs have GE's.

True.

QUOTE

The 2000 was the first commercial aircraft to use Rolls-Royce AE 2100 turboprop engines (then built by Allison), driving slow turning six-bladed Dowty Rotol propellers.[/quote]

The Saab 340 did though, almost forgot about the 2000 for a minute there!
