Hi Milton,
I'm back. Took some time away from modeling for a variety of reasons. Now I am happily retired and have the time to get this project done. In the process I have switched from GMax to...
Thanks a lot for the repaint! AWESOME!

Hello, I for one am keen to see your repaint of PL983 uploaded. It is great to have two PRXI Spitfires flying again! :-)
I already have the PL965 Real Air repaint flying out of my hangar, and i...
I have all of the Spitfires you mentioned. Have not flown the Plane Design one in a while, so I will have to have another look at it, maybe fly it tomorrow.
The cool thing about the Just Flight...
Hi Milton, thanks a lot, music to my ears! Now on to add details and camera pods to the fuselage. :-)
About a month ago, I also took a lot of landing gear pictures of the only public easily...
Hi Milton,
So I ended up building canopy parts over and over again using different strategies, but all good practice so no wasted effort. I am happy with the results so far. :-)
Starting to...
Thanks for the detailed advice. I will do some practice sessions building polys until I get the hang of it.

Hi Milton,
Is there a trick or procedure to add (create) polygons easily? I am working on the front canopy and trying to add polygons as you did, but most of the time the polygons I am creating...
Hi Milton,
Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation about glass textures. Very clear. (no pun intended)
And thanks for the coordinate system explanation, that one was driving me nuts.
Best...
Hi Milton,
Working on my front canopy frame now. Your method to start it on the fuselage and build up from there worked great!
Two quick questions though. I have cut out some rear canopy...
Hi Fibber,
I know some of the payware Spitfires have it built in to the flight model, that the engine will stop working and start smoking if you use full power for more than 5 minutes. 3000 RPM....
Sure, no problem. Glad to help if I can. Any reason to fly another Spitfire is a good one. :-)
Hi Fibber,
I have a fair number of Spitfires in my Hangar. Mostly for FS9 and FSX. If you let me know which specific ones you are having trouble with, I would be happy to test fly them on my rig...
Hi Milton,
So it may take me a while, but I am on my way now, thanks to you! Watched all 47 videos, figured out how to make an exterior node/part, and centered that at 0,0,0. Also centered my...
Hi Milton,
Finished video #47 on Friday. Excellent series, thank you very much!!! :-)
Reshaping my fuselage (version 2) today. Once it gets further along I will post a comparison of where I...
Looks like a lot of fun to fly! Bought and downloading as we speak.

Hi Milton,
I figured out the reply with quote bit. In Chrome my spacebar does not work (only in Reply with quote), in IE it does, go figure.
I did a bit more searching today and got the...
Hi Milton,
(I tried replying with quote first, but my spacebar would not work in that instance, even after a PC reboot)
Thanks, yes I agree that it is best to get through the whole series...
Hi Milton,
As of today have got through the first 35 videos. They are excellent! Can't thank you enough. :-)
I am already thinking through in my head many ways I can fix/improve the current...

Hi Milton,
Thanks for the advice on building the prop. The first prop I will need to build is a Spitfire prop. Building a Mk XI PR Spitfire will be my second Gmax project. My first Gmax project...
Hi Milton,
Working on video #20 now. Amazing and helpful throughout. And I like the default speed of the videos, helps things sink in better. After watching video #19 could you comment some on...
WOW! :)
The videos have been very helpful so far. During the previous weekend, I managed to get through three of the videos and found some basic settings that were not set correctly in my GMax,...
Hi Milton,
