I know exactly what you mean! Like you have pointed out, my old Captain used to tell me that once I retired, I would wonder where I actually found the time to work. and he wasn't wrong!!! LOL

:biggrin-new:.......... yeah..tell me about it......
it really sucks when other "life" stuff takes up your time and intrudes on your thinking!!!
I feel yer' pain Mick.....
cheers... and...
Thank you Mick, and I wouldn't say I'm a more talented painter.. LOL
I've just mucked about with so many airplanes without paint kits over the years that I've picked up a few tricks with...
So, I was playing around with the floatplane quite a while back, and did a paint of a Portuguese Navy one.
However, the floatplane model I had at the time was the standard two seater, while the...
I've been playing around with the contact points on my Jet Ranger on floats. The dodosim model from Owen Hewitt's 'skids' model , and now have the floats realistically sitting IN the water rather...
I've done all my 'repaints' of the Avro's without a paint kit.. and haven't lost any surface detail.
I have a technique! :jump:...
Can't remember if I hit anon with my donation or not!! LOL..
And as someone who both downloads some extremely incredible stuff graciously uploaded without ANY expectation of reward by the...
Okay, first, I agree with Huub that the simviation Wessex is a very nice helicopter to fly. Stable, no funky issues, even when flying with a rather well used twist grip joystick that sometimes gets...
Happy I could hopefully shed some light on the project, even with my limited understanding!
Further to the point concerning rotor disc / mast angle parameters and their association with the...
When I started with my current repaints of Owen Hewitts Bell 206, there were some issues with handling. Some because it was originally modeled after the default 206. I found a replacement cfg. and...
ah yes! thanks for helping clear away the cobwebs! I hadn't pulled that beast out of the hangar for a few years.. till today!!
I have no idea which 'David' you are talking about, but as far as tweaking flight models (AIR files) David Gibson in Australia did a very nice job on the one for Owen Hewitt's Jet Ranger. YES, you...
I have no idea where I got this Wessex from! might have been alphasim, but it's been so long, and I don't have a read me for documentation. BUT it's a big sluggish, heavy bird that's quite stable...
I have the original Owen Hewitt Bell 206 that he did with the high skids, and the float and low skid models from dodosim over at hovercontrol. but there was also a version that had no doors, hence...
[RIGHT]
appreciated!
Hi guys,
So, I've revisited the old Bell 206 Jet Ranger that Owen Hewitt gave us so long ago, and is STILL a nice looking heli, and with the right mods to AIR and cfg., is a lot of fun to fly.. on...
Well, after my marathon project painting EVERY scheme worn by TWA Constellations, I started flying my 206 again, and have now done three full civvie paints. Two retro 1967 and 1971 paints, and then...
Milton's FANTASTIC Dash 7 just coming in over the fence.. And actually, this is my heavily modified one to use as an AI and replace one of the godawful default Dash 8's in my world!! It took a...
With the demise of Monarch here in the UK.. Hamish Mcsween (the haggis breeding billionaire farmer) in the Perth area of Scotland, has acquired a few of their 757's, and being a canny Scot... not...
VERY nice sir.....very nice indeed!!!!
You are absolutely SPOT ON with this assumption that it has EVERYTHING to do with the mast angle!
To 'go straight up' in a heli, without any longitudinal translation (speed) the rotor disc must...
So.. I tried.. I downloaded an old air file editor (seems once upon a time I actually did this.. and had this tool once!!) from back in fs98 days, that is still supposed to work.. ..it didn't......
Hi everyone. sure hoping someone here with far more ability than me can help!
I have no idea how an “AIR” file works, but will assume that it controls a HUGE aspect of how an airplane /...
I've had this little heli for quite some time. Owen did a very nice job 'replacing' the default one (which looks HORRID!!), and I have to remember that this was back in 2005 when I first grabbed it....
I've been painting and flying Connies since last October, interspersed with Nigel's Avro's and a few other fun airplanes, but was bitten by the rotor bug a few days ago.
