I see the piper pa23 250 Aztec is no longer on your product page. Are you still going to release the Aztec.

May just have to take the plunge and install my FSX Steamboat edition and get this one, love a Miles kite. Uninstalled FSXGold a while back to installSteam version then computer suddenly died, packed it away, proceeded to move house, couple of months down the line unpacked to fix said machine, lo-and-behold, started first time :dizzy: go figure.

She's looking mighty fine Barry.

Jamie.

PS. Thanks for yours to Kieth, can't go wrong with a Miles Bros.

Once I get over this "between jobs" phase, I may just go on a binge and just get all the Aeroplane Heaven products on my wish list that I've been holding out on :mixed-smiley-010:

Keith your models were really lovely and they were a frequent ride in FS9 and I really would like to thank you once more for doing them. But I'm afraid I won't fly them anymore once I have purchased this piece of art.

This new model looks absolutely stunning Bazz and thank you for doing a model outside the main stream (does that sentence make any sense?).

Cheers,
Huub

Huub, Thanks for your comment, much appreciated & I can understand wanting to use a later rendition. My model is now quite old (6 years) & lots of improvements in the software & capability have been made. I wish it well as it is in my families history, being owned by my uncle in the 50' & 60's.

Thanks Keith for bringing the Miles birds to life! Without your interest and dedication some of us [like this correspondent] would never have learned about these gorgeous racing planes. :encouragement:

AH, that speed six looks to be a winnnnah!

Just before we release this I would like to point out that this aeroplane has had several different guises in its life. We have chosen to portray it with a certain amount of "artistic" license as it is nigh impossible to settle on any one particular stage in the aircraft's history. It had a bubble canopy at one time, longer wings, all over cream paint and many other differences including a change in dihedral. We have tried to capture the spirit of 30's racing, not produce an exact replica of the aircraft in its current state. Yes she does have a basic radio stack, in order that those who wish can do basic IFR work, just for fun. Personally I hate the look of the modern miniature radios so have opted for a more sympathetic look, better balanced, in my opinion with the style of the aircraft. There's an RMI and a VOR fitted too, obviously. Both of which she never had back in the day. So please accept her for what she is - our take on classic racing from the '30s with a dash of modern convenience. Above all, she's just for fun. And that my friends is surely what this hobby is all about.:engel016:

Thanks for that Bazzar:encouragement: For my part.. I'm willing to accept a little artistic license and as long as what's there works.. it'll do for me;) VM looking forward to having one in my hangar:very_drunk:

Got it, thanks. :)

But it's bed time, so I won't get to fly it until tomorrow night. That will give me time to think of where I want to fly it.

If you have Damyns Hall, I would heartily recommend basing yourself there. Close to all the usual old RAF bases and lovely countryside.:engel016::very_drunk:

Hi Dave,

Unfortunately you'll need to get it from PC Aviator as it's not available on our website.

Thanks

Martyn,

Is my guess right that it won't become available in the future via your website correct? Because when it will become available in the near future I will wait.

Cheers,

Hmm.. I think I'm gonna be waiting too Huub. JF is always my first port of call and I always try to buy from there whenever possible. If.. for some ungodly reason.. JF won't be selling it, it raises another question doesn't it.. WHY NOT? First.. the Aztec is Steam only (though who cares about that) and now JF don't have the Hawk. What in blazes is the world coming to!!

Martyn
December 4th, 2015, 02:44
It should be available on our website shortly however I can't give you a date so if you are desperate to get your hands on it then you'll need to go to another vendor.

As explained by Barry on other threads their decision to sell the Aztec on Steam only shouldn't be taken as an indication of that being the plan for all future products :encouragement:

Thanks for your reply Martyn. I will be patient and until it becomes available I will fly Keith's Speed Six to keep me in the mood. :encouragement:

Very nice plane endeed. Thanks AH for that. A small question: can something be done with the contact points of the plane? In KTNP it appears to be floating over the tarmac.

I noticed that too. I guess it's just a contact points issue.

December 5th, 2015, 20:12
I'll take a look, I have not seen this myself. Can I ask, what was your fuel load when the shot was taken? We are going to release a small service pack soon as I want to add some more camera views and make a few adjustments.:engel016:

Yes, we have released a small SP to address a couple of issues and make some improvements.

1) Oil temp gauge slow to react
2) ADF number rolls showing outside VC area.
3) New camera views for wing tank gauges
4) Adjustments to Aircraft CFG.

This is a complete build so you will need to re-install.:engel016:
