Not sure if you have seen this or not ......screen shots dont look to flash, but it reads up well......nice aircraft none the less.

Oops I just deleted the junkmail from the Australian online shop PC Aviator(?) advertising this.
I was hoping to see some feedback from an owner before taking the plunge!
Think it was a bit cheaper there, $33 IIR

EDIT: Ian is this the same model? they are talking of "over 2 years of re-modeling specially for FSX"

Charl , think hold off currently , i would like the older 27 guess many would here at NZFF , maybe a nudge from myself to the designer,s for a real 'Friendship'

OK I can't tell the difference between any of these Fokkers anyway.
But a Friendship is one I would relate to, as well.
Anything holding you back, then?

Come on Charl,............ your keen eye could tell the difference between an F27 and an F50 easily,....... visually, externally, quite a lot of difference, to say nothing of the differences in the cockpit..........
I mean really,........... those beautiful Rolls Royce Darts on an F27 dont look anything like whats hanging offan F50, to say nothing of that fabulous, unique and unforgettable Dart sound !
But i do agree with you,.............. i can really relate to a "Real deal" F27 Friendship, and not an F50 "Imposter"
I have managed to get Mike Stones F27 working in FSX, so needless to say, N A C flies again in my sim.
