That's a great screenie, Garry. I just love it when aircraft, weather, and scenery all come together and make you sit back and say "wow". I can only imagine how much more satisfying the moment is when the aircraft is of your own creation. :thumbsup:

I have two of Ricks Minis on board but that's not appropriate for the earlier aircrfaft

Anyone just happen to have a box full of FS9 Cars under their bed??

Garry,

Relax, don't lose any sleep, take your time. What you have done so far is brilliant. Can't wait for the finished job but if it's this year or next or even later, so what? It's going to be a great product.

Nasty little critical microbes are all around but hey, treat them for what they are. Contemptible. You do not have to justify the sheer volume of work that you are undertaking, although it does give the rest of us an idea of the extent of the research and effort that is involved in a project of this sort. When one realises that all your work is being done for free, I cannot describe how angry I feel towards anyone who has the effrontery to criticize what you are doing. Some people just need to get real and crawl back into the woodwork!

Best wishes and lots of encouragement to you,

Ralph

Thanks for tha Ralph

One of those things I suppose, but I had had a good day and got quite a few things sorted and took it up to check nothing was poking through from the interior

As it happens at that time the conditions and light was good.

So I made use of it and shared the result........so that did spoil my day a bit :lol:

I seem to recall Bill Lyons doing a Jag XK120 some time back. Don't know if that would fit/be too many polys??

There's always the Globe in the Beverley, open some windows and be credited as the Man Who Solved Global Warming, and then there's a Miles Van with a '58 Rob Walker Racing Cooper inside. Don't know if Girling Foss is the driver or not.

I suppose it's a sign of age to have Peter Ustinov's Grand Prix du Rock on vinyl. :worried:

Thinking on, my father had some Austin Cambridges as company cars back in the '50s-'60s. :)

Try this to wet the appetite Garry.

Then all you need is someone to model it for you.

Scroll down.

Nice link

I must try and get something sorted

Problem is I am so short of polys and being the 12 pax layout that is two large, three medium of four small.

I only can fit two small in :-(
