I have been very slow finishing the Douglas B-18A. I decided around the holidays to finally add some good scenery to my copy of FSX. I did that and got involved in doing more flying than designing just because everything looked better. The B-18A is complete; I will be releasing it probably next week. It does have a VC, but, please note it will be released with the default DC-3 VC. Why, well they look almost identical except for the overhead and I chose not to spend several weeks reinventing the wheel. Some will disagree, but that is the path I chose.
The last screenshot is a first look at my model of the Bristol Bombay. It was a pre-war bomber-transport. It was outclassed as a bomber at the start of the war, but served yeoman duty as a troop transport in the early stages of the war in the middle east.

Best, Paul

Paul, being able to fly your FSX planes was one of the reasons I finally installed FSX when I got a better video card (and I still need a better video card, LOL). I look forward to all the planes that come out of your factory.

Always have appreciated your taste in aircraft Paul. Great to see more of the 1930's come to life.

Hi Paul,

Looks great !
I'll certainly have a go at it when ready; although it isn't really from my era of military aircraft as you know

As always Paul a superb job on another classic aircraft. So glad you enjoy building these aircraft, the 20's and 30's are a fascinating era of aviation.
