Don't know if this has been posted before

Announcement here ------> http://www.aeroplaneheaven.com/

From what I read in other forums, Bazzar is staying as a payware developer tho, working for one of the publishing houses.

Yup, has been discussed (on the dark side of the house): http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...roplane+heaven

I noticed this a while back, when I went to re-download the Irish Spit 9-T. It'd been almost a month or so since then.

I hate to hear this. Aeroplane Heaven has a long history with SOH. Their Spitfire XIX is still my favorite Spitfire.

I wish Baz and the guys at AH the best!

I think that my first payware aeroplane (for CFS 2) was from Aeroplane Heaven. Their FS 9 P-38 is probably one of my all time favorite sim aircraft.

Baz and his crew have always been great supporters of the Out-House and the flightsim community.

I wish them the best.

Nice shots, Willy. I have that Griffon Spit Pack of their's too, but I'm partial to the "Whale Tail" variants. The last Spit was the F.24... pretty much a "Spitful" by that time. I have the demo of the AH P-38 only, but I'm flying all of those late model F4U Corsair "Hogs" with a big smile on me face!

Thanks Morton!

I searched the AH freeware site and could not find a Mk.I Spit.

Am I correct in assuming it was a PAYWARE offering which is no longer available?

I think it was part of their payware Spitfire packs. I've got them somewheres on a cd. The only one that I've kept installed was the Mk XIX.

[hawkeye52]

That's how I figured it, Willy. Thanks for the reply.

The mkI that is released for CFS2 is an old model, pre the Spitfire pack. I believe it dates from the old CFS2 and FS2002 BoB pack, which was released as freeware at one point...

Everything you need is in Morton's download, except a sound folder. Model, panel, gauges, and airfile, along with common textures are in the 'Common AC files' folder.

[hawkeye52]

WOW, PF!!!! Thank you for that tidbit.

Excellent timing!

Not having the Mk.I, I was just getting ready to delete the skin pack.

I'm a bit concerned with this as the AH Spitfire packs are still available as payware from Just Flight.
