excellent, what a classic bird, always enjoy seeing a real one in the Poirot movie "Peril at End House" what a paint. The older version had that paint and correct ID so I hope version 4 has it. Downloading now.

And another movie "A town like Alice", ummm, hmmmm, must dig'em out again.

Wow! Cheers Dave:ernae:

Interesting news. I've been flying the original FSX model since September 2008, just luv it. So I'll certainly be getting the new update version.

Curious as to what may have been changed/improved.

[DaveWG]

Pretty much everything has been remade, reworked, or in some way improved, with lots of added details.
Unfortunately, old repaints will not work, but I'll be releaseing a new paint kit in the coming few days.

Check Harris Scarfe Catalogue and Myer Catalogue.

Hi Dave,

I look forward to this update. I've enjoyed your previous models and never tire of watching that graceful bird slowly descend on the wind. Those wings are so elegant and of course the fuselage and wheels are beautiful as well. Thank you for keeping this special plane around.

good flights, Cal

Thanks Dave. I just updated the FSX freeware aircraft list with the new info and link.

Excellent, Dave!

I've always loved your work you put into the Rapide. It was already a keeper before. It's great to hear that you've spruced her up.
Can't wait to test. :salute:

Thank you!

[OleBoy]

I just loaded her up to go for a quick spin, Dave.

I'm not meaning to pick at your work. More of thinking out loud.
By chance, are you planning to do anything in the cockpit for high resolution textures? I'm just wondering. I know it's freeware.
I just think it would really add a lot too, what's already really nice.

Thank you Dave, what a nice surprise!! Can't wait to take it for some flights this evening!

I had the pleasure of flying in one over Duxford Flying Legends in 2010. An experience never to forget. I'll be glad to take your version over the virtual Duxford skies, thanks!!

Thanks a million,Dave. I'll look forward to adding her to my virtual hangar.

[Cag40Navy]
