Re: CT-142 Gonzo request

Hi Gavin,

I had the 4 of them done up for the TFS model. I'll see if I can find my files, it's been a long time since I've done any painting.

Re: Aussie Hercs

Was dreading when this question would be asked again, as I actually haven't turned on my sim computer in quite some time. I have them done, but not released. Got bogged down with RL, and frustrated in packaging them up trying to get rid of the purple artifacts on the DXT5 compression. so it kind of ...

Re: RAF Brüggen FSX/P3D - Coming, but NOT soon....

Very nice indeed!

I for one am staying with P3D for some time. MSFS in some cases looks nice, but I find the overall interface, etc, too "game"like for me.

Re: Listing Of Military Scenerys

Good Evening,

Greg Putz just released an awesome scenery for CYWG (17 Wing RCAF) at Avsim.com. Search for cywg_winnipeg_2020.zip.

FS9 only optimized, so not sure if, or how it will work in FSX/P3D.

Re: Brize Norton

ACG had an updated one in the works a few years ago. I am not sure who was doing it, but pretty sure it was never released, or completed. It did look amazing though.

Re: JYAI C-130J Specials

It's actually the airplanedoktor that made Fat Albert. And speaking of him, I wonder how he's doing on the Aussie Hercs. I'm not becoming impatient, just curious on how those are coming. https://i.imgur.com/GLgW0qh.jpg?1 https://i.imgur.com/zBV1sUo.jpg?1 They're coming. With trying to get P3Dv5 wor...

You're going to need some 146s to go there now. Absolutely loved the place when I was flying out of there.

Re: JYAI C-130J Specials

I'll have a go at it.

Fat Albert stopped using JATO bottles several years ago, and was retired last year. The replacement aircraft is a used Hercules C5 from the RAF, that is undergoing maintenance and modification at the moment. It is set to appear for the 2021 season.

Hi John, For the CH-148 Cyclone, they are split between Shearwater and 443 Sqn Pat Bay (CYYJ, Victoria, BC) for a total of 28. 443 falls under 12 Wing with 406 (OCU/OTS) and 423 Sqns in Shearwater. 1 Wing operates the CH-146 Griffon (B412) and CH-147 Chinook. You are correct, the Griffons are disper...

Here's my default P3Dv5 without any addons at all at Randolph; https://i.imgur.com/LGwD3JC.jpg?1 I must say I'm pretty disappointed at v5 straight out of the box, thankfully I have most of the ORBX stuff to transfer over from v4.5.

Re: MKAI_C-295M

Hi Gavin,

Yes, it is quite a bit different. We had to go add Main Landing Gear doors, and take all the windows out to make the back one bigger.

We just can't leave well enough alone.
