Dave,

Thats what I love about this place, 90% Bitching but the other 10% is good honest people just trying to help each other. Without offers like seen in the past 2 pages projects would never get off the ground, and certainly not the detail desired these days.

That would be very useful if you can find the time to scan it. No rush at all.... my first day back at work tomorrow following a 2 week holiday :-({|=

I really appreciate your offer.

All the best,

Alex

Hi Rick,

Thanks for those scans. The model I am making (now firmly decided) is going to be the DH.85 Leopard Moth 3 seater cabin monoplane. With the Gypsy Major engine. As per the 1933 spec and used by the Fleet Air arm from 1940 - 1946.

All the best,

Alex

I've got one, if you can tell me how to add screenies I can show you. I did it for a commercial job but as with many, the company began to fanny around with money. It's currently a Studio Max model but no doubt the guru's here can convert it, animate it and add a bit of slap (pref. blue please)

If it's a Max model, it can be exported direct (well, almost :lol: ) to FS.

To add a pic, you'll need to upload it to a server, then use the img tags to enclose the http link to the picture. If you like, you can e-mail the pic to me and I'll upload it for you.

You can also send me the model if you like... :lol:

What a super response. I am thrilled that so many of you feel the same about the lack of early british light aircraft. The other thing I wonder is whether any of you fly online in such types. I have downloaded FSHostSpy and downloaded and purchased hundreds of aircraft but things are getting a bit lonely up there. I am aware of the Warbird Airshow I just wondered if any others fly warbirds and classics online and if so where?

Regards

Duncan

That looks cracking that does!

Guess I had better down tools hadn't I, no point in two being released!

Such a lovely shaped aircraft.
