Small world, I live in Renwick to.
I might be flying into Woodbourne around mid day so if you see a green Nanchang with 20 on the nose, come over and say gidday :)


Sorry had to go home at lunchtime so don't know whether you made it or not ??

If you want to discuss FS at any stage call me 5 729 729. We are down Inkerman St

Deane

I have just had confirmation that the FS2004 gauge set which I created for the Turbine Fletcher over the last few days is working !!
All the gauges will look just like the FSX version
I hope to get a BETA 2 up tommorrow.

FS2004'ers rejoice !!

Daniel - not yet - but I have started a skydive version....................



It is too difficult to go back and make a hollow cabin with transparent windows, so I have just textured the cabin windows (which in reality have quite a dark tint) and the applied a high shine level so they look OK.

Very cool! Haha so cool to have a skydiving one!

I for one am also very thankful for the fantastic work you've done thus far on the Fletcher series! Superb, and keenly awaiting the Cresco.


And an early production Fletcher......hey, I can dream!

Yes I am considering the earlier Fletchers. I feel the need to make the standard 400HP model as it was in the 70's and 80's before the modifications started adding vortex generators, aileron end plates, GPS, etc. I need to make one in James Aviation colours, not only to honour NZ's biggest operator of the type but also Ossie James who died last year. Of course there are many other key operators in this period as well - Robertson Air Services and Fieldair to name a few.
Earlier 300 hp models might need to wait til after the Cresco.
