garry that was me asking about the bae air uk 300, i was given a copy of aerosoft and downloaded the airuk 200 textures to fly with when on the va. but alas the 300 was rather lacking in choice. basically air lingus or european. if you are able and willing if time permits i would be very greatful for the air uk 300 textures to go with this set.

I did look at the 300 but the mapping was different and there was so much mucking about getting the 200 to line up I soon lost interest.

I no longer paint now apart from project work so it would seem unlikely.

The model has some nasty pinches and twists in it....not insurmountable by any means but a bit of a pain to do for something I never fly.

Guilty as charged l'm afraid.

Coming along it isnt, not at the pace l want anyway, if its not built in four or five weeks the interest bubble wanders off, but there on an orbital circuit and they always come back around LOL.

Sorry no RJX l'm afraid, several reasons, a primary one is quoted above, ie some one else is doing one.

Externally there is little difference, most changes came with the cockpit l believe.

Actually now you mention it this might be the 100 base model ?, l'll have to check the length again to confirm, its several months since l did any work on it.

It will be for FS9 initially, after that ?, well lets see how FSx fairs, and it will follow behind the much more advanced Jetstream 41.

Hi Michael

Visually.......externally there is little difference between the 146 and the RJ, as you say it is mainly the cockpit.

The RJX however, the last version that didn't quite make it has very different engines in smoother shaped nacelles.

But in whatever form it takes she's looking great :smile:
