    Hi Robin
    The corrupted zip file is ca65f25dAuster_Terrier2.zip

    According to Daves Readme files (from other Austers) the actual aircraft is the
    Auster 6B / Beagle Terrier - civil conversion of the Auster 6

    Thanks
    Gavin

    Phew, Found it.

    I have the original zip, as well as a single zip containing the following that I had put together ...

    I'm sure I have not missed any. Naturally, I found it on my 6th & last portable library drive..
    Please dont ask me to find the single zip files, please..

    So, with Dave's permission, I can either send the complete collection (273MB) to the library, or to anyone, or just the Terrier, or I can decompile the complete zip collection into single Aircraft zips
    & I have no idea as to why there are 2x listings!

    It's great that DM's lovely Austers are having a bit of present day love,because with sadness,I'd like to take this
    opportunity to mention that it's 9 years,yes,9 years to the day that Ry Draiggoch AKA Leif Harding
    passed away suddenly at his home in NorCal.

    Leif was pretty instrumental as I remember at the time in persuading Dave to do those wonderful Auster variants.

    Where ever you are and whatever you're drinking,raise one to old Leif tonight.

    My personal preference would be an individual upload form each model. But I can imagine that this will be time consuming.
    As we have a fresh librarian I will ask his opinion. Perhaps he can add the individual files in a less time consuming way.

    Thanks for your effort and Dave M. thanks for the permission. I'm happy to see all models will become available again.

    Cheers,
    Huub

    I'm in contact with Peter Watkins,what say I ask if he'd like to host his re-paints here too along with the Austers?
    Pretty sure they're scattered all over the net on various flightsim sites.

    Just had a look in my downloads file & found:
    Aiglet trainer
    AOP-6
    Mk5 snds
    A2-45
    Agricola -FS9
    Alpha -final release
    Ambulance
    AOP-11
    Arrow
    Husky & repaint file
    Glider
    J1 Autocrat
    XP-glass

    Now have not opened any of them to check if they are all Dave Molys & they might not be the final release cos I adjusted a few FDE's, but if anyone is interested I can send them out ( send a PM with your e-mail address) if Dave (& he seems quite happy from his last post) is in agreement.

    I can do the separate zips, a bit time consuming, but no problem at all.

    I've probably got most if not all of them myself, but if you could upload the combined zip I'll split them down and upload individually. I'm afraid I have no time at the moment to go digging the files out and may not get around to sorting these files out straight away as we have just lost a family pet. My eldest daughter's lovebird 'Blue'.

    Will get round to it when I get the chance,

    Had a quick peek, have maybe half those files in the obvious place, the rest will be hidden somewhere else. I have the Fairey Fulmar, is that already in our library? best check with a librarian, .

    Hi Jamie,
    I have them individually zipped, it went quicker than expected.
    How do I send them, upload them?

    If you upload them, I'll authorise them as uploads by Dave, if I can work that out. I'll add a note in the description that you uploaded them for preservation.

  12. #37
    Can't find any uploads by Dave at all in the library, but searching is not straightforward. I searched for all entries, came up with this,

    http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...archid=5028909

    It doesn't even have his forum post in this thread, mmmmm.....

    Ok, I'm uploading as we speak..
    It will be a zipped file, containing all the individual zips, including an Auster effects zip.
    I hope you dont mind me doing it this way, as uploading 25 files could take a bit of time.

    It's all good, there's no point us both doing it 25 individual times, lol. Maybe we could persuade Dave to let us add all his great models to the library, Pup, Basset, Gladiator,.....you get the idea.

    Thank you Dave, and for the great models without you we would probably never have seen in this sim.

    It's there, will download and digest as soon as I can, many thanks.

  19. #44
    I'll delete this upload when download complete and break down and upload individual Austers for austerity.

    Thanks everyone,
    Jamie

    What you didn't know, was that I rubbed my magic lamp 3 times . The story that you can do it only 3 times is just a fairy tale.....

    Austerity begins....., slowly.


    A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military - Props

    Description: The Auster models M - VL522 & N - VL523 were built to a Ministry specification A2/45 calling for an updated A.O.P. aircraft. It was to carry a pilot and observer, camera equipment and armour plating under the crew.
    Other requirements were for it to be extremely manoeuvrable with good low speed handling near the ground and short takeoff & landing characteristics,
    The first prototype, model M, had a 160 h.p. D.H. Gypsy Major 31 engine. After many modifications to the design, it proved to be underpowered, so a second prototype,
    model N appeared fitted with a 240 h.p. D.H.Gypsy Queen 34.
    The handling of the aircraft was very poor and after military trials, no orders were placed so the project was abandoned. The two aircraft went to R.A.F. maintenance units
    and were later disposed of.
    Other than a 3-view drawing produced from the works general arrangement drawing and a few b/w photos and notes, nothing else exists to aid the modeller.
    VL522 is shown here in its silver finish as it appeared at the SBAC show at Farnborough in 1948. VL523 is in its standard Army camouflage paint.

    This aircraft is released as Freeware.

    anyone interested in keeping a track of these, check here,

    http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d=88720&sort=d

    I won't get them all done at once, I have to load them up and grab a screenie to upload with them, at least so far.
