Here are some shots of Mehlin Rainers new AN22. This thing is huge.
Looks good in the sim and in flight.
I loaded 8 of them and my frame rates were still good.
A great addition to the eastern european skies.

A great addition to the skies of FS, and the good news is they do visit the UK every now and again so I have a reason to use it.

According to Wikipedia, the Russian Air Force has 3 of them currently flying, any chanse we get a mini-package from MAIW?
jajaja, sorry, I hate to ask you guys for things, but sometimes you simply can't ask

A pack with these would be great. But as a beta tester, I can honestly say....this won't fit into the time schedule at the moment.

But, since it wouldn't be too involved, I think one of our fine members should take the reins on this and pump it out....lol.

Who's up for this???

Eeerm.... are you sure that's his AN-22 and not the TOLM one ?

KevinJarvis · Post by **KevinJarvis** » 07 Dec 2007, 03:43

The TOLM model is from Dimitri Zamborski...

This newest model by Mehlin Rainer is up on avsim.

I know, I've already checked it out

But the model in your screenshots looks like the TOLM one to me, not Rainer's...

I am surprised that the Russians only have 3 aircraft in service. Does anybody know if this is because others changed ownership with the break up of the SU?

Post by **VulcanDriver** » 07 Dec 2007, 13:48

Well Comrades...

The 22 was going to be replaced but when the SU broke up the military budget was slashed. Now we have Putin and they have all that cash from gas and oil sales who knows what may happen. I did read that Putin had personally given the OK to develop the 225 as a long-range strategic transport.

I also read that there was 'private' force of 22s operated by a ex-SovietAF guys which they leased back to the RuAF. The breakup of the SU left a lot pi**ed off military guys looking for work.

Kevin, where did you find the cammo scheme as it only comes with two aeroflot schemes?

KevinJarvis · Post by **KevinJarvis** » 07 Dec 2007, 23:19

Boy do I feel like an ass...

Those are indeed the TOLM aircraft.
I didn't pay enough attention to the cfg entries when I added them using this program I have.

I'll post the Rainer aircraft soon.

@Steve,
The camo scheme is the TOLM aircraft which was a package that I picked up somewhere. Possible avsim.ru

OK...now that I have my collect act together..at least for the moment, here are some pix of Mehlin Rainers An22.

At least my faux pas gives us the chance to compare the two models. LOL
