ANZ Saab 340 / Airwork Convair

[Ex ANZ Eng]

I was wondering if anyone can help me with 2 NZ aircraft.
I seem to remember that there was a payware Saab 340 that had been released but the company is no longer in existance.
Can anyone help me as I would like to purchase this aircraft.
Second, does anyone know if there is a Airwork Convair model available to download for FS9.

Cheers
Phil

As you have alluded to the Saab 340 is no longer officially available - it was made by FFS but they are defunct. There is a non official FFS forum in the Avsim forum pages I suggest you check these out.

Airwork never operated Convairs (they operated Friendships) Convair are operated in NZ by Pionair, Air Freight and Air Chathams - there is a Air Chathams repaint of a Convair available at Avsim - zip file "chathams-580.zip" - I also seem to recall an Air Freight Convair somewhere but I can't locate it - it may of been part of the Retro AI project?

Thanks for that Naki,
If anyone is interested in selling their copy of the FFS Saab 340, I would be interested.

The Convair seems to be an AI one only Naki.

I don't think so, there was a dispute between the marketing guy and the creators of the aircraft, the company closed etc, you can actually read a thread about it here. That dispute effectively means its available from nowhere. I believe that it would still only be compatible with FS9 if you were to get hold of a copy somehow.

I am still only running FS9, so if anyone wants to sell their 340, I would be very keen to buy.
