    Shessi, Its obvious that tjsdn1375 is not a native English speaker and most probably uses translation software. And to be honest I love his enthusiasm, therefore he has been asked kindly, on several occasions, not the inform about the progress and release date of a model this frequent.

    The sad thing is that he most probably just doesn't understand these requests.

    I understand that a similar thing happened at the fsdeveloper forum.

    For you A-20 Havoc enthusiasts, just FYI, it is still a WIP. We are trying to wrap up the Mallard Turboprop, then I will be back on this one 100%.

    Thank you. I have made some progress in the VC not previously posted and will continue in this vain most vigorously once the Mallard TP is wrapped.

    Thanks for the update. When it comes to flying warbirds this will get me out of the Tigercats for a while. I'm really excited about finally having a good A-20 in FS.

    Speling is not my forty, but wots the mater with that?

    is this an attempt at humour on your part, or are you being pompous by letting us know how to spel little words? As Shakespears wrote all those years ago 'spelynge is in the eye of the beholder'

    Looks like another beauty in the works, Milton. And I get to do what I enjoy almost as much as flying your superb creations.... follow the progress from start to finish. The radial powered Mallard was an enjoyable adventure, the Experimental Republics were a real joy to watch come to life. The Avia Series was second to none... those were the good ol' days. What exquisite models those turned out to be. I'm sure the Havoc will be a winner too. I'm glad you and your talented team are still with the FS9 crowd Milton. And if you need anything, you know where I'll be... lol!

    My last post was rude. My apologies, and I'm glad we're back on topic.

    The model and VC look really very promising Milton!

    Thank you for picking this one up again!

    I'm sorry you felt offended... it was not my intention to do so... it is just that it was confusing to me... because I couldn't figure out what the hell your were saying...
    I don't really give a hoot is you can spell or not... but in English... as in any other language...it is important to understand what someone says... otherwise...
    why listen at all!!!
    Although your reply was rude... I didn't feel offended... try it sometime... just let things go by without becoming defensive...
    Cheers

    Thank you Milton

    Milton, from the A-26 to the Aero Commanders, from the XP-47 projects to the F7F Tigercat and on, I have been enjoying your aircraft, and the ones you have worked on, immensely. You know, one of the most important lessons that I have learned in the last few harrowing years of my life, is the most precious commodity that one human can give to another is their time. And you, sir, have given much of your time to us in the form of these great aircraft. In that, I thank you very much.

  17. #242
    And that statement, everyone, just about says it all. Well said, sir

    mazdarodi, thank you for your very kind and thoughtful words. You are most gracious Sir. The team members over the years represent some of the best available for freeware work and it is their contributions that made the aircraft what they became. I have been very fortunate to experience their gifts to the community through our projects.

    The attached file is a good summary of the DB-7 and A-20 variants and their use throughout the WWII era and theaters. This will likely stir the pot a little and give ideas for future paint schemes.

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/55k9wka1uz...Havoc.pdf?dl=0

    The number of variants I do will be somewhat limited as there are so many configurations (noses, nacelles, fuselage differences, armaments, etc.).

    I intend to focus on the A, B, C, and G (late); uncertain yet about the J but a possibility.

    Love this picture of a freshly completed A-20 being pulled off the assembly line.

    I am currently working on the virtual VC fleshing out all the right side instruments, radios, and switches. Lots to do yet.

    You bet Nathan. I really like all the versions; the early ones had their appeal as well.

    Still plugging away in the VC; will take some time yet.

    Speaking of which, if anyone is going to be attending Airventure at Oshkosh at the end of next month, Rod Lewis' A-20 Havoc, the only one flying in the world (completed/flying since last summer) - the same one I've posted a bunch of photos of to this thread- is slated to be making its first public airshow debut at Oshkosh this year: http://www.eaa.org/en/airventure/eaa...enture-oshkosh

    Oh that's excellent news - maybe there'll be some nice video material as a result. Certainly would be indispensable for sound wav. resources.

    Yep Rod is bringing his A-20 to OSH, now I wish he would bring it to Wings Over Houston as well!
