What Is Piglet's Next Project?

[Flyboy208]

Just curious Tim, what do you have planned? Mike :wiggle:

[Gibbage]

My vote would be the XP-67 "Moonbat"

Sweet looking WWII prototype.

[Piglet]

All I'll say right now is it has to do with Paris.:wavey:

[Matt Wynn]

Ms760?

That's good enough for me Tim! A Paris Jet perhaps, now that is unique - pure speculation on my end fellow simmers! :monkies:

[Cirrus N210MS]

well a C-123 would be cool :ernae:

[Piglet]

I made way too easy for you guys!

[falcon409]

Yep, already expressed my feelings on this one some time back, great to see this coming to FSX. Ito San did a nice one that I've been flying and it's a beauty. . .can't wait Tim, Thanks!!:ernae:

[Matt Wynn]

looks great Tim! really cannot wait!:ernae: your beer's on my tab in the SoH bar this evening :applause::icon29:

[3/7charlie]

Nice! Did I hear something about doubledecks and 4360's?

[deathfromafar]

I love the Paris Jet. Another star to be born into the FS world! :applause:

[simkid22]

Estrella Warbirds Museum in Paso Robles, CA has two that are not in the best of shape along with some Foguas for part for the restoration of another one. It would be nice to see their MS-760(s) looking better. It was kinda funny stumbling across all these french planes in California (wine country no less lol) as the restoration section is in the back of the museum. I cant wait Piglet!

[Matt Wynn]

i've said it before 'Stickman', it's always a sad sight to see classics like this in a scrapyard for spares, rather they were flying :kilroy: so in a way piglets Paris will be a great addition to the hangar :jump: great spot though pal!

[simkid22]

If there is one saving grace, its that they are going to a better cause, a complete airframe. She might even be airworthy, although I didn't get a chance to talk to anyone working on the one under restoration. I wish I took a better picture of her.

[Matt Wynn]

i like the Magister/Zephyr, it has a certain charm to it, back to piglets MS760 heres a view that really shows her graceful curves...

*joking* "hey piglet whack the magisters butterfly tails on one" :icon_lol:

[falcon409]

Yep, did that one for Ito's Paris along with one other:

Paris Hilton ??????:bump:
Italo

[jankees]

Hey, the Paris, nice choice!
Looking forward to painting a few...
I saw this one in Montelimar this summer:

[Flyboy208]

It really is a sleek little jet ... and I am quite fond of the Argentine camo scheme.

Mike:wavey:

[falcon409]

Yep, If I had the money, this is what I'd be flying.

[Matt Wynn]

i'd have its sibling the Magister :ernae: but paris would be a close second:icon_lol:

[sparouty]

Mike:wavey:

Argentine one?? mmm for me, the Paris with an anchor on its roundels is the One (even if it doesn't have any hook):jump:

Simkid22: it's sad/strange to see a Fouga from the French acrobatic team in a scrapyard... Do you know if it will be restored?

Mister Piglet thank you for your choice!!:applause:

Sylvain

PS : Jankees, did you see, in Montélimar, my favorite plane (this one has a hook!!)... EtendardIVM?

unfortunately, my camera broke down after 4 pics in the museum, this is why I have to borrow the images...

[Railrunner130]

There is a nice Fouga Magister/Zephyr out there. It's by Restauravia. http://restauravia.com/ I did a few repaints and have a couple more somewhere in the paint booth.

I was in Paso Robles twice a few months back and didn't get a chance to go to the museum. Darn!!

Tim- I look forward to your Paris. That'll be a welcome addition to the hanger. Thanks in advance!

:icon29:

[Matt Wynn]

sparouty i asked him that a while back, i think he told me 'no its for spares' shame really...

[peter12213]

That 2 seater viggen looked awesome in the previous pic!
As does that MS760.

The IVP is one of my favorites too!

How about this for a peculular plane

[Bjoern]

How about this for a peculular plane

Reminds me of an uglier and bigger version of Dornier's Seastar...

[Matt Wynn]

every time i see that plane i always remember its registration before i even see the fuselage :icon_lol:

[sparouty]

(nc)...:icon_lol:

Regarding the MS Paris, here is the web site of "Aéro Passion" a French association who fly a "Paris": http://www.aeropassion.fr/3.html

I'm sorry it's all in French, but you can find a nice video : clic on "Galerie" and then choose on the left "Le MS760 en meeting".

Regards,
Sylvain

[peter12213]

I wouldn't mind more of those smaller seaplanes personally I quite like them!

[falcon409]

It is a cliche' I know to say this, but the beauty of flight translates to any language. Thanks for that link and what a nice performance by the MS760. I especially enjoyed the cockpit shot towards the end of the video. . .a perfectly laid out panel, easy to read. . .visually pleasing.

So Tim. . .are we there yet? lol, lol.

uglier? Than a Seastar? Dunno 'bout that. Homely, yes. It was designed for the Fleet Air Arm, and the FAA has a 'thing' for 'workman like' aeroplanes. Besides,Mesrs. RR Griffon , 6 bladed contra prop. Carrier capable,folding wings with variable incidence. Stall at 60KTS, top at 300 or so. Mmmmmmmmm.Yummy.

The performance sounds nice, but I, as a crewman wouldn't put up with an aicraft that can only be flown on moonless nights. :d

Maybe not a bad idea making aircraft not that appealing though.
Scares the enemy right away upon sight...

[falcon409]

aaaaaaaaaaaaand, back on topic, here are a few more of the aircraft Tim is actually working on. . . .

[Bjoern]

Cool pics.

I'm somehow looking forward to that one. It's like the jet version of a small GA aircraft. :d

Yep, I've been flying the FS9 version for a long time now and it is just that, the GA version of the jetset. It'll be a very popular release I'm sure.

[Flyboy208]

That black us civvie registered bird looks sweet! Mike :wavey:
