Will be a sure winner with a VC!

I've wanted one for FS for a looong time. Not sure what for though. Forest fire season is over after all. :icon_lol:

i'll be doing the A-40 first which is the military variant, then i'll investigate the BE-200 waterbomber, hopefully i can get it in FSX and FS9 to please both crowds, just a small update, new wings arrived in hangar along with the wingtips and reshaped engine...

almost forgot, if i could i'd like to thank all those who have inspired me Piglet, Lionheart, IRIS Simulations, Razbam and so many more, without your great aircraft us modellers i'm sure would be stuck looking for yardsticks, so on behalf of modellers everywhere thank you, and keep at it, i feel deeply humbled to be in the presence of modelling legends, thank you all :ernae:
