[tristar]

anyone know whats going on with the J31 project from rick p, it was years ago now that I saw the amazing pics ..
RICK PLEASE WHATS GOING ON....

Hi Tristar and welcome to the Forum though if you ask without shouting and demanding an explaination as to what Rick is doing with it I am sure that some-one or even Rick himself may come along and advise you.

A very rude first post that doesn't deserve an answer

Anyhow, due to many circumstances beyond Ricks control the project is on hold

You can't even get thr type right...it's not a 31 but an early HP.137 1/200

If you want to know anything else you are welcome to ask...nicely

[tristar]

Guys I was not shouting I really wasn't forgive me for the capital case, just excited and worried that it might be cancelled or something
.
and I am not new her I have been following this forum for over 5 years now just never joined ..

[tristar]

And sorry for the not getting the type right , but it pretty much the first version of the 31 , I saw this model in a james bond movie (cant recall which one it was but I think it was the beginning of moonraker) anyhow rick if you read this thanks for the HS748 it is still today one of my favs it was freeware at extreme payware quality
you are a kind man for giving this amazing work for nothing. I cant believe the VC picture of this new project its beyond amazing, I hope everything is ok with you and again apologize for sounding rude before, but trust me I wasn't trying to...

hat goes down to you buddy, I hope this project comes out one day soon.

Thanks again RIck......

Tristar...Just in case you are a bit mystified about the response to your post...Posting in upper case (capital) letters is considered to be shouting

TriStar

The 31 was a re engined complete redesign of the earlier HP design that Ricks model portrays.

A very different creature to the J31

Hi TriStar

Sri you got a bit of a roasting on your first post but as you now know, it came across as either enthusiastic or pushy.. depending how you read it

To all intents.. I think the Jetstream Mk1/200 is dead in the water mate and one of a number that are unlikely to ever see the light of day. I always like to believe 'Never say Never' is the way to go but in reality, the chances of a release any time soon (if at all) are similar to those who play the lottery expecting to get the 'Big' prize. I only do the lottery high days and holidays (less in fact) and my disappointment at not winning is always profound. You'd think I'd have learned by now

Last post on the Jetsream R&D thread was 01 Mar 2011. This gives an indication of it's progress

That's sad to hear , especially when it looked so close to being completed , any chance rick can give you the files to finish it?

[Garry Russell]

It isn't nearly finished

The external model is propbably near to completion but the cockpit and systems is where the work was

Rick may get round to it someday...

He'll have all the files, but it his his project and likely to remain so.
