I've not forgotten about the UAE stuff, it's all done & just needs packaging up. That should be done over the next few days. What will also be uploaded in the next few days or so are these:

They are on an HD paintkit & will include flightplans for them as well.

In terms of what country project is next, well it's another huge project in terms of aircraft types & numbers. That will also have a new model involved in it as well, watch this space.

Whilst working on the TriStar I decided to do another country project, & it was a lot bigger than I thought it was, in both aircraft numbers & types. All 3 air arms are represented here, & a new model that's not been released yet as well. I've not done the F-16's, yet, but I will do those in the future hopefully:

It's in the pictures, I don't really do modern so you can rule out the J-10 & JF-17

Perhaps sooner than you think... But not for FS9 / 32bit on my end anyway...

Quick update, the Pakistan project is now complete. However I can't upload it until the MiG-19/J-6 package has been published. In the meantime here's something else instead:

This is the Royal Navy Sea King fleet as it was in the late 90s. These are updated models as there were a few mapping issues on the models & 2 new models have been created, 1 for this little project (the HAS6), & 1 for an upcoming project.

Big thanks to Mason Curling for adapting these for me & to John Young for allowing us to make these modifications. Also a big thanks to Matt Soden who has created some flightplans for these as well. This will probably be uploaded this weekend.

Dan, these have now been published. Due to the sheer size I had to split them.

Thanks Martin, much appreciated. I'll get the Pakistan files uploaded in the coming days.

Up next out of the paint shop is the UK helicopter fleet for the late 90s to early 00s as usual. This seemed to be a logical step to make after redoing the Sea Kings. I've done all bar the Squirrel HT1's based at RAF Shawbury as they've already been done. Many thanks to Matt Soden who has done the flightplans for them all, aside from the Gazelles, & to Steve Barker for his updated HD paintkit for the Chinook.

These will be uploaded in the coming days. I should also be clear, this isn't the big project I was referring to in my previous post, a preview of that will be soon hopefully.

I am so looking forward to these, Dan.

And it stirred my (ailing) memory: didn't the Army Air Corps have some Alouette IIs at one time - I believe the number was 17? Or is the memory playing tricks on me...
