FSAddon Avro Anson

Could not resist this - a C19 at last! I can now recreate the five aircraft I flew in from RAF Bovingdon as a Air Cadet in the '60s! (plus loads of others!).
Downloaded and like Dave , could not resist a go in G-AHKX!

Just got it for P3D. A lot of models to explore ! Looking forward to the repaints, Peter.

Dear me Peter.. your brushes are going to run out of bristles That said.. they'll have time to cool off while you have fun in the Anson I was surprised to find WD413/G-VROE wasn't among the paints to accompany AHKX Appreciate it's a T21 but hey.. it's a 19 with different clothes and one of the few flying examples. Never mind.. a PK will hopefully put paid to that problem

I've just flown it from Coventry to Culdrose ICW a Sea Gladiator and Seafire.. both of which managed to keep up Granted.. today's weather wasn't challenging.. I think the strongest wind I notices was 4kts (though we did pass through some rain west of Luton) but I flew the entire flight pretty much hands off.. minor adjustments to heading caused by the breeze and planned course changes but otherwise.. hands off. What a delightful model it is. I'm quite taken by the FAA paint.. you'll see just how much when I've resized and uploaded the shots I took this evening The more I'm in it.. the more I like it

EDIT: Well done Paul. I hope you're pleased with it I'm already itching to get the Hudson

Aye, get the Hudson package and its free expansion, Dave. You know you want to and must !

[DaveB]

That's it then. I'll just tell the wife the big boy made me buy it

This Anson package is just excellent ! Here's just two of the models you get:






You can just imagine what P3D's internal self-shadowing is like in that first one !

[DaveB]

Nice shots Paul. You certainly get good 'bang per buck' with the Anson and I'd imagine there'll be a shedload of paints for it. I see JanKees has shown an interest and I'll bet PeterW will have a go too.

Yes, there are a lot of variations for such a modest price. Here I am , in the wee hours of Tuesday morning, still playing around with this Anson, and while further examination may yet reveal problems, right now I am delighted with it. I've just taken this shot - look at that longitudinal ribbing along the fuselage roof and rear sides, and behind the engine nacelles.The silver doped fabric looks spot on, as does the complex canopy framework. This is top notch stuff !

[DaveB]

And here I am in the wee hours having just downloaded the Hudson, update and free expansion pack. Well.. the big boy DID tell me to buy it

Fortunately, I read your post at FSAddon and was prepared for the way the update installs Once I've had a look (installed but not flown yet) I'll take a look for those repaints you've done
