Hi Guys
Found one of my Repaints in my stash so converted it to DDS and sorted the model to work properly
(sadly using default 738 panel)
It's Erick Cantu's 732 (my favorite 737 model)
Quick spin from Jersey to Gatwick
Regards
Rick

Hi Del
Yes mate re-adapting back into Flightsim as i'm losing touch
Bought the New Medal Of Honour on Wednesday and completed single player in 3 hours! so back to FS i think
Not done any flying for over a year apart from JS testing
not touched the models either so gonna be a real pain when i have to export sommat as it's very complex.
Too much 3d with work has sort of killed my love of modelling
But need to get the JS finished or i will never do another model i fear.
trouble is it takes so long to make complete models these days as every part has to work (bring back FS2000 i say!)
Regards
Rick

Lovely shots, and...
(sadly using default 738 panel)
...ignoring your other post
do I read that you might want to make a VC for the 732?
Thanks for your great work (regularly enjoying the 748)
& all the best from LOWW,
Nick.

Hi Chris
The MP is bugged currently
but when you get a good game it's hard to stay alive due to snipers and spawn sitters just increasing their rank.
But love the game as everything is destructable (cover etc).
Much more realistic than MW2

Great shots Rick and lovely paintjob. The third picture is my fav by far! reminds of many hours spent sitting at Heathrow Hatton Cross back in the 80s
