As the default publisher for the Pond - I should tell you I mean that statement sincerely.. When I open the
upload File and find the Freeware that has been given to us - I feel as if I have been gifted, I get as much fun
flying the stuff as Publishing it OR running a fairly successful VA. People put ALOT of time , trouble and their
love of aviation into these things I would not think of it any other way. I would like to thank everyone who
has donated freeware to the Pond. Not just from me - But from the 1150 plus subscribers who have downloaded
these aircraft and scenery and enjoyed them/ We are very lucky to have these gifts to play with

Well I just enjoyed a quick and dirty airtest of this machine...Seems stable and forgiving...I might just work up a proper routine for Air Day.

I made a video of my first quick flight but sadly it takes about twelve minutes to download so a bit of a waste of time really...It is an MP2 file and plays very nicely in a good size but I'm afraid I didn't make a small streaming YouTube version this time:-

Thanks for looking Garry...I was disappointed by the size of the video file...There seems to be some variable in action that I don't understand. I tried making that video in several formats, mostly those I have used before, but the finished size was much larger for this six minute flight compared to previous files for 10 minute flights :dunno:

I also had no problem running it AFTER it tried to load a viewer I already had ;-)

What a beautiful and graceful piece of video


You have obviously lost nothing since your days in Hunters

and Teds Model does fly beautifully my only criticism is the modern avionics .

I flew it and it easy to manage even without an auto pilot. I wonder if the problems that caused this to be canceled are able to be simulated.

PS, this was a prototype for a MAIL PLANE?!! :o
