Yep, many moons ago. You can even fly Muttley's aircraft.

It looks just dreadful.
Demand was so high they have released it early? - That sets off alarm bells straight away.
I think Mike Stone freeware model puts it to shame.

I'm mindful of the plethora of 'Builders from Hell' progs that we get on the box. ALL of them say IF a builder asks for money 'up front' or before the project is completed.. alarm bells should sound. I'm not suggesting for one moment that Alpha would dump anyone in the brown stuff but to release an external model only is a new low as far as I'm concerned. At least the likes of Captain Sim (who I'm sure Alpha are trying to emulate) offer the finished external model with a 2D and VC in cut down mode. OK.. the FD may not be worth much but who's to say the C17 is any better

Thank goodness for my PAI C17. Though I like to see it from time to time, I have no real desire to fly it

Yeah i can do some for free !!! 20 quid a livery sounds fair and i'll even throw in a half painted version and finish off by 2012.

Tony,
I can't wait for a half painted livery. Please could you paint just a quarter of the half painted fuselage and release it for me nice and early.
That would be great. I'll ensure thousands of other simmers request the same(!)
Do you want the £86.23 now?
Cheers.

Maybe the latest payment was due on the BMW?
More likely the recent move to Oz.

Well as business models go it's a bit different - pay now, get later... I wonder if it will catch on.

I think I'll still to the old FSD version for now.
This isn't my video, but at least it came with a V/C

Ps I'm not sure if it's still available (it even had cargo!)
