So does anyone speak French so we can establish a release date?

Enough to know that they aren't quoting a date as yet, but it "strongly approaches", as Smithcorp pointed out. The basic 150 will be first, followed by the Aerobat and finally the "taildragger". :think:

I love their attitude as well. VC only, no 2-d panel and anybody who has a problem with that ....well, they will be able to use the deinstaller!! And whinging emails will be pretty much ignored, I believe some reference to 'spoilt children' is used!

Some phrases in there I am going to have to remember, especially "grincement les dents" (grinding the teeth) - apparently they need to stop 'grincement' over the VC, hence the decision to release. :dance:

Whatever, it all looks rather promising.

Hi Eddie

All it says from what I can make out is that they are projects in progress and the 150 will be first, then the Aerobat.....I think.

They mention a standard 150 which surprises me as I thought it would have been an F.150??

They also mention "Their DR.221".which confirms the mention above

As far as the 2D cockpit is concerned they have decided there will not be one, that decision is final and any emails complaining about that will be unanswered..............non moaning :sad:

That's a shame really as I would have downloaded that if it had a 2D but I certainly won't if it's VC only.

Garry,
if you want a 2D panel, Carenado did a rather nice one in their
fs02 C152,which is available free at the usual places, and here (still, I just d/l and the fs02 'patch' too) ------>

C'est rien, monsieur Garry.

Vegas, I'm surprised at how much I can remember, seeing as Louis XIV was still on the throne when I was at school.

Thanks for the translation Andy

Looking forward to the "texas taildragger" as I had the oppurtunity to fly one several times ten years back - it was great fun although it sort of looks a bit like a spavined duck due to the non-Whitman main gear of the later 150s - (for anybody who's interested you can do quite an aerobatic routine in the little bugger). I looked again and it appears to be a "N" model which means the hopes of getting Romeo Kilo back are slim to none (G-ATRK was a F modelthe first of the swept tail versions). :curse:
I have the Robin in my hangar but even that pales to this by the looks of the screenies
