A very public thank you to Mr Maltby

Hi Leif

No silly wasn't piping up for that reason.

Just agreeing with DM's view that it's not possible alone & it's a team effort.

& the thing i like most is we have never recruited anyone,
they have just joined into a group for the right reason and not because someone wanted to form a group.

(I know what i mean) :roll:

There are a lot of groups out there pulled together manually that have split up and gone but ours seems to stay sort of together because it was a natural group of likeminded loonies.

Regards
Rick

Which is why we all are still here

And now I have to go and take the Super Budgie to Skagway with a bunch of
salmon fishing moose hunting lower 48ers - For the life of me I dont know why more Andovers didnt find their ways into civilian life

Leif

Ohh yes for you folks on t'other side of pond "lower 48ers" anyone not from Alaska also known as "a**H*les with cash

A very good point there Rick

The group drifted together through a common interest and funny each has filled a sort of gap that fills it beautifully

Better that all sitting around a table in a pub deciding to form a groups and say right you do this and he can do that.........never works.

And to be surrounded by talent such as the Gurus here is a real honour.

A question for Mr Maltby allthough it applys to others aswell...

Whats it like flying your own models in the sim?

Post by **DaveB** » 21 Nov 2006, 01:00

Honestly??......

I only ever fly stuff produced by us (the ROYAL US that is)

Yeh.. I buy stuff, I download stuff but.. there is only ONE real deal

I'd like to add a public thank you to all concerned too.. from my better half.. who rarely see's me

My only regret is that there are not TWO (at least) of each of the team. So many aircraft still undone.. too few to fill the gaps :crying:

Maybe all of these excellent modelers, might like to join forces for a joint project

Hi Jonesey..

That's the point mate. There is never one single release that has not been tried and tested by any of the developers here. The reason they're so good is not by accident

Often when a snag occurs one of the other developers will come back next day with a solution especially on the maths side of things. This is usually based on experience of that particular problem

And it's the blended teamwork without a hint of rivalry that is so impressive and gives such a good end result.

And the test flying is almost like the real thing

The autoland never ever ceases to amaze me,and Peter's Autoland Tutorial has helped me and the rest of the Venture Trident crews to get the best out of this fabulous aeroplane.

Miggers :-({|=

Thank you for the kind words Miggers...I'm delighted to hear that my tutorial has found such use...My involvement with the actual development of any aeroplane is very peripheral. I'm afraid my only relevant skills are in flying them, but I think my memory of the real aircraft has proved useful at times...Long may it last :think:
