Finally released after a long development period! Just as a heads-up, the "get file" link on Samdim's website isn't working at the time I'm typing this, but if you go to Avsim and search for 'Samdim' or 'Tu-124', the file is available.

Cheers Mgchristy!!!

What a gorgeous aeroplane.
I remember as a child, waiting for a flight at Gatwick and seeing one of these take off.
I'm off to download it now.

Thanks again

Kevin

Unfortunately, it now seems to have disappeared from Avsim.

Thanks for the HU!

Managed to grab myself a copy just before they pulled the file.
Great aircraft, but no VC though.

Any word on why it got pulled?

A post over at the SimOuthouse says that there was a "problem with the file" and it will be fixed and uploaded again tomorrow.

awesome, i've been looking forward to this one - the russian simmers certainly love to code all the systems and give it away free :dance:

*how can ariane sell that 154 when project-tup' is better*

the 124 is certainly a great looking plane, i have no doubt it'll be a top rated package.

We have a similar situation here where there are developers produce freeware models of British Classics far superior than the payware versions.

Hi Guys

Anything Samdim makes is top Banana.

You should see what he is doing with FSX development.
He's further ahead than anyone else bar Eaglesoft but they cheated :wink: .
