These are for Martin and for all users of ACG Duxford. They are a pair of Hispano Buchons - the Spanish assembled Bf-109 but with Merlin engines. These two appear frequently at Duxford air shows:
They are finished and tested for FS9 and FSX, but I want to build the second part of the package before release. That will be the remaining 8 airworthy Junkers JU-52s around the world, including the one Martin flew on recently.

Dear John,
It feels like you are giving me my birthday present for my 50th which I happened to had last Tuesday.
Thank you very much!
Martin
Cheers,
Martin

The suggestions for other retro aircraft are good. I've had a few requests recently so I've been trying to rationalise how best to order them. I'd rather design for my friends here and at ACG in the first instance and give second place to the 99.7% of unknown users who download and never say a word (the "Black Hole"). First consideration would be for anyone who is designing scenery and needs some AI that's not currently available, is not currently being designed or is on another designer's list. I'll gladly help if I can, but not in the middle of a current project. Next would be retro aircraft that have a historical interest, but are still flying today, like the Buchons and Ju-52 in this thread. There's also a few aircraft I'd like to design for myself but that others will hopefully like too. I want to do a small piece of scenery if I can get access to the airfield I have in mind to get some shots for the textures. That would present some opportunities to model some more retro AI and ensure that there's a home for them to fly from.
Fond memories of "D-AQUI" at Flying Legends, and we were lucky enough to be visited by on of the Swiss ones at White Waltham earlier this year. Speaking of which, can't wait to see four of them back in virtual Switzerland..
