Now that the Alphasim forums are back online, we're greeted with the news that they've got a very nice looking Caribou in the works.

Need a password for that link - but a Boo will do (sorry Garry)
Technically its DeHavilland (Canada)
Just what the VA needs for its Yukon Operations Hub <very very wicked grin>
I know .....I'll get my coat

My apologies. I knew its lineage as a classic British craft was
tenuous at best....but I also forgot that the new AS forums are password-protected due to (presumably) some miscreant hacking their forums recently.
Regardless, I'll go back to drinking my Bushmills Single Malt now. Maybe in the morning this will all make better sense to me.
This is the first weekend in many, many moons that I haven't been "obligated" to spend time with the girlfriend. I'm making the most of it by catching up on FS9....pathetic as that may sound *sigh*.
The AS Caribou does appear to be a fine craft nonetheless. Another excellent oft-overlooked niche from Alphasim.

No harm no Foul MgChristy good taste in Irish whisky BTW - beats <shudder> Old Paddy - go take the Budgie flying it will go just about anywhere a Caribou will and you can even fly the AirNotrh one around the Yukon - Seriously if they (Alphasim) come up with a really good cockpit
I'l probably pop the plastic for it - As you say its a tenous linage to DH
however an all white UN one might go nicely for those roaring around East Africa times looking at the elephants <wicked grin>
