[Francois]

12449Phew.... after two years in development....... it is finally DONE! Our Faithful Annie is ready and released on my little shop.

Still working on a P3D installer version, and we'll have it in other shops next week some time ! But for now....... be our guest ! (Oh yes, and 25% discount for our loyal 65+ members!)

[DaveWG]

Is the P3d installer version included in the price, or is that a separate purchase ?

[Lionheart]

Congrats, Francois!

[Francois]

Included, but will deliver later this week

[DaveWG]

Thanks Francois, I'll pick it up when the P3d installer's ready :encouragement:

[Francois]

Thank you :encouragement:

[Ian Warren]

Congrats and well done :encouragement: Its brilliant !

[racartron]

Installing even as I type. Thanks for looking after us 65+ dudes.

[Francois]

You're welcome :wavey:

[PRB]

Thanks Francois! The Anson is an interesting airplane. After the Hudson, I'm confident you have done this one justice as well. I will be soon to purchase!

[stovall]

Great stuff Francois, thanks for a great aircraft.

[AussieMan]

Thanks Francois! The Anson is an interesting airplane. After the Hudson, I'm confident you have done this one justice as well. I will be soon to purchase!

Paul, as a member of the beta team I can assure you that Simon has done justice to this great aircraft. There are three models, Military, Civil and Floater.

Tried for over 12 months to break it in P3D but she just kept on flying.

[Marvin Carter]

I had purchased this plane last night and had a problem with PayPal, Did not receive the serial number. Got in contact with Francois and hade the serial number in my E-mail first thing this morning. If that is not good customer support i do not know what is.WOW!!! Good customer support, Good price, Good product, Francois is a great guy. You can not ask for more. Thank Francios!!!

[Francois]

Thanks Marvin, so glad it works now. Apologies again for the hiccup !

[Francois]

Prepar3D installer is now also included......... same price of course :untroubled:

[DaveB]

I just had to buy this last night as soon as I heard it was released (using Paypal too). Didn't receive an email with the serial straight away either but I looked on my orders at SilverCloud and there it was:applause:

It's easy to draw comparisons between this model and the Aircraft Factory release and I have to admit I was unsure last night having flown it briefly but having spent rather more time with it today, I'm more than happy. All we need now is a paintkit (layered would be nice for us dummies!):jump:

[spatialpro]

Looks good, but could you list all the different Marks available please?

Paintkit is being worked on..... hope to have it in a few weeks from now.

I'll upload the User Manual to my website so you can check it out before buying...... more on that later.

[peterwatkins2]

Downloaded. Simply outstanding - at last a Mk C19! Now I can recreate the five C19's I flew in from RAF Bovingdon in the '60s. Look forward to the paintkit.
Many thanks for this Gem!

[Geomitrak]

One of the best aircraft packages I've ever seen in MSFS. This set of Ansons is nothing less than superb.

[dhasdell]

Looks like a must, with Peter's paints, when I get home from holiday.

[Francois]

Thanks everybody for the kind comments, much appreciated !!!

For those not yet sure, I have now uploaded the FREE User Manual to the product page. Scroll down to 'Attachments' and download it there. It has pictures and descriptions of all models included in the package and also shows all the features and animations of the product.

[WarHorse47]

Wonderful, just wonderful.

Just completed my first flight. Very enjoyable. Love those sounds.

Great job. :very_drunk:

Guess I better go read the manual now. :biggrin-new:

--WH

[manfredc3]

Hearing about the Paypal issues I will wait till it's available else where. Surely am eager to get this added to my hangar and into the air.

[DaveWG]

I purchased through PayPal. Didn't get an email with the serial number, but the number was there on my account orders page so I was able to install fine.
Great model(s), well done.

[DaveB]

Yup.. there's no problem buying through Paypal so why wait:wink: It seems a few of us didn't get email notification with the serial number from FSAddon (I still haven't received that) but you will get an email receipt from Paypal and the download link/serial number is on your orders page at SilverCloud so no problem;-)

ATB

[Francois]

Paypal
I am looking into the problem with the confirmation e-mail from the shop. It appears to be because of the shop software or the server settings it is on. I see it attempts to send emails, but fails, and the emails remain in a wait loop. So it is not a Paypal issue in this case. Apologies for the inconvenience, but so far I managed to solve all problems I believe.

I am also working on setting up a new shop, hopefully getting rid of this (and a few other) pesky problems.

For Simon and myself it still beats selling through distributors, who take up 20% to 40% of our income, making it even less feasible to continue our development work :-(

P3D

On another note... I added the P3D files AFTER releasing the initial package..... and people who already bought it before that time did not get the P3D files activated in their account. I have fixed that now and everybody should have TWO zip files in their Anson order. Just let me know if this isn't the case yet for you.

Happy flying !

[DaveB]

Hi Francois,

I tried registering on the forums there too and that's not working either. The registration process is fine and it says your password will be sent, check your email. The email doesn't arrive unfortunately (or hasn't yet anyway). Perhaps the 2 are linked?

ATB
DaveB:)

[Francois]

Could well be there is an issue with emails from the store server..... that's why I am working on moving to another account, software and server. That, and because of the high cost of renting a dedicated server ;-) )

I'll have a new website (almost ready), a new shop and a new forum, hopefully all before the end of this year !

[WarHorse47]

One minor issue I discovered this morning.

When I called up my GFA aircraft, the float version was not available. I discovered that there were two missing entries in the [fltsim.x] section for ui_typerole= and ui_createdby=. When checking all the aircraft.cfg files I found the same for [fltsim.0] of the C-12 Military version as well. Adding these entries corrected the issue.

So now I have all 13 Annies showing in my selection menu.

Just thought I'd pass this on.

[danyboy21]

Yessss !

Buy it ! because Simon's Work is the best what I know ! ! !

Thank you François for this plane :applause:

[MDIvey]

Another masterpiece by Simon. Really enjoying it...Thanks

[AussieMan]

WarHorse are you using FSX or P3D? In P3d if you use "Manufacturer" to call up the Anson you will get the floats version under GFA Avro Anson and the tractor will show under GFA.


If you use "Publisher" then for some reason The float version and the tractor won't show. I did not have that problem when testing.

You are correct. With the normal install, the float version doesn't show when you select GFA as publisher. That is because of the missing entries in the [fltsim.0] as I mentioned.

Here is the default [fltsim.0] from the float version (I always save a copy of my aircraft.cfg before editing):

[fltsim.0]
title=GFA Avro Anson floats
sim=GFA AVRO ANSON FLOATS
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
kb_checklists=AVRO ANSON_check
atc_id=
ui_manufacturer="GFA Avro Anson"
ui_type="Mk1 on Floats"
ui_variation="SAAF 3168"
description="The Avro Anson, Type 652A, a militarised version of the Civil passenger Avro 652, flew the first time on 24 March 1935. The aircraft you are looking at here is a very unique conversion of the Anson by No.35 Squadron SAAF, at Congella Dockyard in Durban, South-Africa. It was used for training new crews in waterborne techniques before they graduated onto the Squadron's Sutherlands."

What is missing is:

ui_typerole="Recon & Training"
ui_createdby="GFA"

Since you didn't encounter the missing model during testing, I can only guess that you selected the aircraft according to the manufacturer which would be "GFA Avro Anson"

[AussieMan]

WH, probably the reason I missed it was because in P3D selecting aircraft can be a real PIA. Unlike FSX where you have thumbnails to help you choose an aircraft P3D has a different setup with no thumbnails until you select an aircraft. It is a real pain as I am one of the testers for another aircraft on the drawing boards and they have just named them A, B, C etc.

[DaveWG]

I notice in P3d the Anson is nearly off the top of the preview window. That can be fixed by editing the bounding box values using Raditor.

Some sweet screens there Ferry :encouragement:

[huub vink]

Most probably the most known picture of an Anson is the picture from the K6285 which flew with 321 (Dutch) squadron from the RAF. Even the Airfix kit came with markings for this particular aircraft as well. BUT......... somehow it was not included in this package!

As I can not wait until the paintkit is available I decided to edit Simon's textures and create this famous aircraft.

Not finished yet, but I thought I should announce it already :biggrin-new:

Nice one Huub :-) And I may be Dutch, but Simon isn't .... so it wasn't really on his priority list I guess. There are quite a few to choose from !

I should really be charging the developers for my screenshots, or try to get a discount or something... ;-)

[Francois]

DevelopeR (no plural, all by one man!). And yes, you could try :biggrin-new: But our thanks for the free publicity is eternal !

[jetstreamsky]

What's the flight handling like, there's a quite spirited flight display in NZ on video that shows how it can be flown in real life and it's quite an agile machine in those hands?

[Francois]

We made it as close to the real thing as possible.... without having flown the real machine ourselves. It is pretty agile indeed :-)

[huub vink]

Instead of the K6285 I decided to do the N9742, as this is the one from the Airfix kit.

As said it is just a quick edit. But for those who want it, I will try to upload it tomorrow (evening in my time-zone)

Made that kit a couple of times in the distant past.

What civilian repaints there are available? And some pics of the cockpit would be appreciated.

[Francois]

Hi there,

you can see all the available liveries in the manual. It is a free download, prior to buying (see 'attachments' on the product page in the shop).

As for the cockpit, we now have a wonderful 360 degrees look-around made by Greg McKenzie from New Zealand.... check it out here !!!

http://www.scaber.org/panos/aviation/FSX/FSAddon/Anson/index.html

[Ian Warren]

That Pano did come up well :cool:

[huub vink]

Sorry, but Champions League football (soccer) kept me away from my computer. So I didn't succeed to upload the file before my deadline. However there is more, as a sharp fellow member noticed. The Airfix model came with B roundels (see pictures below). However when you look closely at the black and white picture which shows K6285 and the R9742 in formation, you will see the real aircraft had type A roundels on the wing instead of the B roundels as supplied with the kit and which were already standard in autumn 1940. The roundels on the R9742 (in the back) even seem to be in the "old" position close to the wing tips. Thers is also a difference between the roundels on the fuselage from the R9742 and those on the K6285.

The wings also had 2 yellow squares on them which were painted with special paint which was used to detect gas (Thanks for this information David!)

As I would like to change the wings to depict the real aircraft, I will need so extra time.

[siebolt]

I also made an edit of Simon Smeiman's original textures. So most of the credits should go to the original painter. It's a real Dutch delivery.
The Avro Anson Mk1 came in 1947 in service with the Dutch Air Force. All aircraft had smooth cowls and no turret. There was a mix of glazed and standars nose. They were used for twin-engine and navigation training. Later on they were also used for light transport and photo reconnaissance.
This particular aircraft is the D-11 with glazed nose, RAF registration MG783, in service from july 1947 till june 1953 and had still the RAF color scheme. After there first big overhaul, they became all yellow.

I hope to put in the library asap. A few little thing to do.

That's looks great, Peter. just what I was looking forward to. How about a silver with yellow bands?

Oh, do you mean like this one, David! T21 of Cambridge University Air Squadron, 1952.

[DaveB]

That's the sort of thing. Thank you.

Outstanding repaint thank you. Looking forward to the Cambridge UAS one as well. How to decide which one must be the difficult problem with all the station hacks that flew around. My favourite was from RAF Gaydon as it was about the only quiet aircraft flying from the place!!

Any way many thanks again

Loads more to do!

I wondered what happened to that one:encouragement:

Had word from Simon yesterday. He says he is almost done with the paintkit and expects to upload it next week. I hope I can provide it.... I am in Italy again on my limited internet account. We'll do our best !

[DaveB]

Thanks for that Francois:encouragement:

Hi Francois,

How is Simon doing? Any SAAF paints out there yet?

Kind & Best Regards,
Robin
(Cape Town) Young Falcons

[Francois]

You're welcome Dave. :untroubled:

Hi Robin, Simon is doing okay. But not working on any repaints I think. We have a list of 'issues' and improvements on the Anson and we're also hard at work on our next project already......

[peterwatkins2]

Finally completed the London School of Flying Avro 19 G-AGWE. Have uploaded to FlightSim.com and should be available tomorrow.

[DaveB]

Cheers Peter. I had a look on Allnodes earlier just in case it had slipped in under the radar:encouragement:

A Belgian repaint. Just uploaded to FlightSim.com.

Very nice - as always - Peter. :encouragement:

Not wanting to hijack this thread, but did you ever work your magic on the Heron (Flight Replicas)? Add-on skins for that bird seem hard to come by, but I thought I read you were going to tackle it a while back (but might have been just wishful thinking on my part).

[Francois]

All looking very nice ! Will download a few as soon as I have proper Internet again :-) Thanks guys !!

No, you are quite right about the FR Heron. I have promised myself a all-scarlet Queen's Flight example and was about to start when I got sidetracked by a Cessna 310B and a Anson C19!
The paintkit for the Heron is great but quite complex and I guess that could be the reason we have not seen any repaints yet - however I will be tackling her!

cheers, Peter:wavey:

[peterwatkins2]

Another British civil example!

[DaveB]

Oh yes.. I like that:encouragement:

Greets,

[Francois]

It is really enjoyable seeig so much interest for our 'Annie' here ! Thank you all for liking it and thank you for all the additional repaints!! I am still waiting for Simon's paintkit, but with him in South Africa and me in Italy, both on a limited Internet connection, things just always move slow ;-)

I am also sending the final list with remarks, requests and wishes to Simon this weekend, so he can start work on improving the Anson !

[Francois]

And at last!!! Now also available from Aerosoft GmbH in their e-shop... and possibly on the FSWeekend in Holland today !

Didn't see it, but maybe it was sold out. ;)

[DaveB]

Darn it.. I see the Anson at Aerosoft but no sign of the PK either there or at FSAddon. I think I misunderstood the post!:banghead:

[Francois]

There is something seriously wrong with their shop system........ It took me half an hour to find it....... they appear to have a 'separate' on-line shop for boxed products... when choosing English instead of German I kept landing there... and not all our products are there.

As for the paintkit, I am still waiting for word from Simon :-)

Here in Italy they say 'piano piano' about everything..... which kind of translates into patience patience......
