Hi All
I'm looking for the CIS models of the AN-26, AN-28 And AN-30 they all seem to have disappeared from the AI world. If anyone has them could they send them my way please.
TIA
Cheers

When searching for an aircraft (basepack or repaint), you can use this website :
http://www.owlsnest.eu/aiaircraft.php
It is very complete, and with direct links.

I checked the links for the 4 Antonov models on my site and they all point to valid downloads.

An-28 is a Mike Cronin model not CIS. It is in the Cannon AFB package, or:

You've discovered the foibles of the AVSIM search engine. I think it treats a hyphen as a minus, i.e. exclude, so for an-28 it would look for "an" excluding "28" but I don't think it will search for 2 character words anyway, hence no results. Note that wrapping the string in double quotes returns 68 pages of results!!! I'll leave you to check if it includes the model file

. Note also that entering multiple search terms in the Quick Search can return different results to the same terms in the Description field of the Extended Search. I think one treats them as AND and the other as OR but I can't remember which way round.

How did you do that, John? This works for me:
1. In the aircraft column either scroll down and select the Antonov models you are after or type Antonov in the text field (the list reduces itself to 13 different Antonov models) and click on the 'All' icon. Now all Antonovs are selected and the main list filters itself.
2 A total of 89 listings have been found. The display default is 25 per page, which gives us for resulting table pages. Either you maneuvers between the pages with the left and right arrow icons (I personally hate that) or you select "100" or "All" in the display textfield. This will give you the complete list to scroll through (I personally love this).
Tell me where this has failed for you, please.

Hi Martin, it was Avsim that gave zero results, the Owls Nest worked perfectly.
