Looks nice.....as expected xwink .
Good idea to limit to coal and gas fired gauges, easier to make, easier on frame rates = more fun to fly, goodness knows, FSx needs every leg up it can get these days LOL.
Nice to see you out of the closet Rick

Best

Before I lost my FSX (for ever it seems :brick: )the early beta of this ran better than even the default stuff, I just hope and FS9 version is on the cards.

Hi Trev..
I believe it is mate but it's easier for Rick to make a 'true' FSX model then backward engineer it to FS9 than it is to do it the other way ;-)

Rick, does this mean your Blenheim is on the back burner for now ?

Hi Paul
I have not been near the Blenheim for well over a year as the introduction of FSX has changed modelling as i use FSDS which is not allowed access to M$ tools in development so i am continually lagging.
it will get finished but as you know it's ready when it's ready as i don't do release dates.
as i said in my first post freeware is on hold as i need to eat.
I have had many e mails attacking me for this already but i am not going to argue with people.
it's my choice.
i also see i am being slated on some other forums for choosing to go FSX native but as stated it's far easier to make FSX native and convert the model to FS9 than vice versa but nobody has bothered reading that part.
not anywhere did i say i was not making a FS9 version
Regards
Rick

I understand your decision Rick, your models have always been top quality anyway. We all have to put food on the table. That is why I went on the game. Not had any luck yet though.
