Has been released by other commercial developers for Flight simulator in the past, but not for Flight Simulator X.
Was commonly seen on TV in the 1950s
Has a prominent control surface feature
Was originally designed in the years following WW II. Model being replicated was built in the 1970s
Part of its name is also on a record album
May be obtained by digging in the right place

hmmmm. It's hard to pass on an FSD product.

*EDIT Whoops....didn't see the entry form on the FSD site. *END EDIT*

[warchild]

its sad. there are two planes i can think of right off the bat that starred in my favorite TV show every week in the fifties, but, since its a GA plane and not military, we can rule out one of them..

and darned if i didnt miss the posted link too.....................

[ColoKent]

....another delay to the Jet Star being released.....

I'll guess a Cessna 310

K.

[Dain Arns]

Pretty easy to guess, so I bet they are past the 10 winners already...
I think certain folks around here are going to be very happy.

[euroastar350]

I posted Cessna 310 before I edited my earlier post:mixedsmi:

[Ferry_vO]

I'll guess a Cessna 310


How does that fit some of the clues..?

[dominique]

How does that fit some of the clues..?

the 310 doesnt IMO, the Bobcat would however fit most of the clues, tha's what I voted for :engel016:. Yeeeeaaaah a Bobcat ! The last one I flew was Bill Lyons !

[anatolpopov]

Sorry, but Bobcat is done for fsx

http://secure.simmarket.com/fsaddon-t-50-bobcat-fsx.phtml

[Ferry_vO]

I'm sure a Bobcat "May be obtained by digging in the right place' but I don't think it has a 'Has a prominent control surface feature', and neither has a 310.

I think Tim made a typo and the clue should have been 'Was commonly seen on TV in the 1960s'; I also think he means the name of the model, not that the aircraft itself was seen...

:wiggle:

[dominique]

the record album clue would fit too and the T50 has quite a large rudder tail :jump: BUT it has already been done so this is not the one :icon_lol:

[Tim-HH]

May be obtained by digging in the right place


Just take a close look at the FSD Homepage and you will find a very helpful hint :mixedsmi:

I don't think it is a C310 or a Bobcat...I guess it's a plane that was also made by Bill Lyons a few years ago.

Greetings
Tim

[robcap]

I guess that too, Tim, and I think I started on the same plane 2 weeks ago. So I guess I can stop now.
But maybe I'm wrong, and I can continue.:kilroy:

:wiggle:

The hints said it was commonly seen on TV in the 1950s. Not going to tell you if it is just the name of the plane or the whole plane itself. That would not be sporty.

We have had well over 100 entries. Several were correct, and several were for the plane, which we have also not announced, that will be coming in the months after this release.

I can tell you that previous releases for previous versions of Flight Simulator have been very very popular. Also, while not a hint, I can tell you that this release, and the one after that will include both a top quality VC and 2D panels. The 2D panels will be available in both widescreen and "square screen" or "standard" formats.

In addition to the first 10 winners receiving a free one, anyone who guesses right will get a 10% discount code for their shopping cart that will apply to a purchase 30 days post release.

[Tim_FSD]

....another delay to the Jet Star being released.....

K.

Won't reply on your guess until release day, when all of the winners will be announced.

Yes I am afraid the delay for the JetStar is again delayed. This is frustrating to us as well, and one of the reasons why we will not announce upcoming projects so soon, because there are so many things that can go wrong. In this case, the work we did for the JetStar in FS 2004 had to be scrapped when Microsoft keep changing the compatibility playing field with the various service releases for FS X. Then the designer left the group, taking all of the source file with him.

In order to do it right at this point, at the higher quality level that any cutting edge developer must meet, we will once again need to start it all over from scratch. Economically, we just cannot commit the higher level of time and resources necessary for this class of plane right now and stay afloat. So we will need to get several of these GA models out of the way first before we can tackle this huge undertaking.

[Chuck_Jodry-VJPL]

A remarkable assortment of guesses in the reply forms and some folks got it right, and even some who got it wrong got it right as well , maybe they would also like to take a shot at this question , who is the SOH member who flies a 310 and sent in a whole bunch of jpg's of every square inch of the aircraft, he earned a repaint for that at least!

http://estrie3d.com/images/310.jpg

[N2056]

That would be the one known as "Ken" :d

[tigisfat]

I wonder if it'll wierd for Ken if we're all flying his airplane around. :mixedsmi:



edit: oh, and that screenshot is awesome!!

[krazycolin]

Yup... we did a nice job on the 310... looking good.... (wait till you see the pit!)

[Ken Stallings]

Wooo HOOOOOO!!!!!! :jump::jump::jump:

The TV series would be the classic "Sky King" and he flew two aircraft but the star of the show was his Cessna 310 Songbird!

Oh yeah, baby, smack me purple and call me happy!!! :icon_lol:

And who says naked begging doesn't sometimes work! :icon_lol:

And that is one very beautiful looking virtual rendition of the C-310R! I am absolutely thrilled folks and very humbly appreciative that N5077J can join the stable of liveries! Very kind of you all!

heheheh.. got it right ::LOL:; too bad i didnt see the post till 11 hours later.. Oh well.. back to the brain burner..

[tigisfat]

Well, I responded to this thread first and the proper means of correspondence fast, and i was right. If I'm not in the top ten I'm close. You never know if ten lurkers followed the link faster than I did.

Ken

Actually, both the T-50 and the c-310 were named Songbird. For some reason unknown, when they switched planes they didnt add a 1 behind the name..

::chuckles:; was my favorite show at the time.. Sky King, Roy Rogers and Flash Gordon pretty much made up my saturday mornings..

i was SLOOOWWWW.. darn near posted the answer in the thread till i took your clue. oy vay.. yup, sometimes i can be a dummy.. At least i gave it my best..

[warchild]

I posted Cessna 310 before I edited my earlier post:mixedsmi:

::chuckles:: i almost posted the entire history of the "Songbird" from its roots as a T-50 with radials to its transition mid show to the 310 and even gave the identity of the pilot who flew it ( kinda identity ). Cessna was using Sky king as a marketing platform, so the pilot was no less than a cessna exec. besides, there was only one other show that commonly had aircraft on it in the 50s and 60s and that was 12 O'Clock high, which starred a b-17 named Leper Colony ..

Well, specifically, the Songbird is a C-310B, and quite a bit different than the 310R or Q. That model has gone through more nose jobs than most movie stars.. in one version it has a schnoz on it that rivaled jimmy Durante's.

That's true. The hose nose is the 310R. Officially, the 310 doesn't have a nickname -- like Skyhawk or Skylark or Stationair. In fact, the only consistent aspect of the 310 lineage is the inconsistency! :icon_lol:

So Songbird is the one normally associated with the model, but you are right, the 310 has undergone a number of significant exterior modifications over its long lifetime. It's the one most folks use and I guess it's legit in the sense that the Skyhawk in the C-172A variant underwent a significant series of modifications itself but is still called a Skyhawk. The interesting thing is that if you use the term, Skyhawk, most folks know what you are talking about. If you use the term Songbird, most folks have little idea you're talking about a Cessna aircraft!

I have a lithograph from one of my former USAF squadrons. It features all of the aircraft the squadron has flown. One was the U-3A, nicknamed the "Blue Canoe." The U-3A was the off-the-shelf military of the C-310A. It was originally purchased as the L-27A, but that Air Force designation was soon changed to U-3A. Like I said, consistent inconsistency! That squadron is now the 357 Airlift Squadron flying C-130H2's. It's kind of ironic and quaint that I now fly an updated R version of that aircraft! I mean how many can say they fly an upgraded version of an aircraft once flown by one of their former military squadrons! Here is a photo of a U-3A off Airliners.net:

http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/9/1/1/1673119.jpg

The one in the photo looks just like the one in my lithograph except for the livery and the serial number of the one in my litho is 0-82-120 vice the one in the photo 0-82-107. The C-310R is sort of considered the last of the 310 line. However, even that fact is questionable since Cessna originally released the C-320 Skynight as the C-310S! In terms of the 310 being the Songbird, I'm thinking since Cessna had such a close relationship with the TV program Sky King, and that was the name of his bird, I guess Cessna recognized a good thing when they had it and simply adopted the name initially.

So, she shall be Songbird, and long may she live! :engel016:

Cheers,

Ken

[Ken Stallings]

Found some other lovely photos of the U-3A in USAF livery!

This one is serial number 0-82-124, which is only four examples after the one in my litho!

Ken

[warchild]

beautiful plane. That one and the Piper Apache will always remain as favorites to me.. The folks back then may not have had the sophistication they do now, but heh.. they had style :D

[txnetcop]

I was hoping somebody would do that baby! I hate to see Ken having all the fun LOL! Credit card at the ready

[N2056]

All I know is that many people will be very happy...:d

[Reddog]

There's a couple of 310's out for the sim. I think it's Flt1/Dreamfleet has one out for FS9 that works in FSX/SP1 and Brett Henderson and another fellow has one out for FSX/SP2.

[Slug Flyer]

I really appreciate the way FSD is capable of making quality models in a variety of different genres...warbirds, modern military, or GA. Most other developers are far more specialized (not that there's anything wrong it that).

[Gibbage]

Where was these photo's? I myself flew out in a Cessna 172 to a local GA airport and took about 1GB of photo's of a Cessna 310R I found to help with the modeling. I love doin "research" research. :salute:

I gotta say, the 310 is some of my best work yet, almost (but not quite) rivaling the P-38! Glad to see it flying!

[stiz]

technically fsd doesnt make then, milvis does, which (unless they've changed their ways) sell the models onto anybody who wants em.

[dominique]

Don't let me die stupid, I don't get at least two clues

- Has a prominent control surface feature

- May be obtained by digging in the right place

:confused: :icon_lol:

[Tim-HH]

- May be obtained by digging in the right place

I thought they meant this little C120 blueprint (http://www.fsd-international.com/projects/upcoming_releases.htm) on their website but obviously I was wrong :icon_lol:

Greetings
Tim

[krazycolin]

Actually, FSD does make their own planes though we have done several with them. Milviz has a Z not an S and yep, we're proud to be the makers of some of the best aircraft models out there today.

[Chuck_Jodry-VJPL]

It’s still worth 10% off the purchase price to guess what the next release is and submit an answer, the 310 is not the answer , nor is it the next release, its number two of the next three releases and the only one produced by MilViz, , the next release is entirely an FSD production and getting back to the roots of what they do best , General Aviation designed for use on most every computer and features stellar framerates, the ability to use a shared cockpit, as well as a completely functional VC it has two 2D panels for the SimPit builders , a full panel and a landing view , all with type specific gauges and was made to accommodate the use of RXP gauges for those who wish to use them.
Another feature thats sure to be appreciated is the price , designed to be affordable , framerate friendly & FUN ! .<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>

[6297J]

It's going to be hard to beat the Dreamfleet version even now. I absolutely loved that one - that was probably the one addon that changed simming forever for me in terms of taking it seriously but (and no offense) I wish it were Dreamfleet or RealAir who were doing one for FSX.

edit - ah, but I see we are all on the wrong track anyway :icon_lol:

[Chuck_Jodry-VJPL]

Did you know that it was I who did the Dreamfleet Dakota for FSX ?

[txnetcop]

Yes and you did a very fine job of it!!! Excellent aircraft for flight simulation

Now that you mention it yes, I think I did know that. I've never owned that one. But you aren't doing the C310 for FSD by the sounds of it, Milviz is. I don't know who they are.

[stiz]

Actually, FSD does make their own planes though

hasnt in a while now though.


Milviz is. I don't know who they are


http://www.milviz.com/ be warned though, they might try to sue you! :kilroy:

[Chuck_Jodry-VJPL]

Colin of MilViz fame was asked to produce the model for FSD , the previous pair of FSD releases were also done<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
with MilViz models and we (Colin & Myself) have cooperated on other projects together as well , it’s a small world and most who work in it know everybody and have worked with many of them on one project or another.<o:p></o:p>

[Ferry_vO]

The hints said it was commonly seen on TV in the 1950s. Not going to tell you if it is just the name of the plane or the whole plane itself. That would not be sporty.

Whoops, conflicting info at my end. The shows did start in the fifties. (At least the one I was thinking about, don't know if it is the correct answer of course..)

Ah well, if it isnt the songbird, i dont want it. guess i'm just really picky in my old age..

Just an addendum. There was a tv show broadcast by the BBC in 1950 that earned the place of being the first television show broadcast from an airplane ever. unfortunately, it is still restricted from being viewed in america..

[krazycolin]

hasnt in a while now though.

Is that a joke? If so, it's not even the slightest bit amusing. I remind you that this smacks of libel and that, my dear "not friend", is actionable. So you could be next on the list. So, I would be very careful what you I say, Stiz.

(I can make jokes too... see?)

[6297J]

Ah yes, Milviz. I remember now :icon_lol:

[krazycolin]

Now THAT was funny!

[JAllen]

It is going to be something with a 'V' tail.

[Snave]

It is going to be something with a 'V' tail.

Yes, designed in 1947, there was a TV series that started in 1959, and several albums have used the name, and you can dig in sand by the seashore... There's nothing special about the 310's tail, pretty though it is.

[warchild]

right. Bonanza.. kinda not too fair using a westerns name and making us all think it was the plane that was used commonly in the TV series..

[doublecool]

Please let the next Aircraft's be

Piper Navajo
Cessna 337
Aerostar 700
Pilatus PC-6 Porter
Piper Cheyenne

Now that'll keep ya busy... LOL

I loved everyone of those I mentioned and they put FSD as a leader in Flight sim

[doublecool]

Did you know that it was I who did the Dreamfleet Dakota for FSX ?

You did a great job on the FX version :applause::applause::applause: but...was there ever a fix so it would work with Vista?

[RKinkor]

If it is a Bonanza there is a good one out for FSX in freeware, a P-35 if I recall

[6297J]

.... and there will surely be an exceptional one coming via the new and improved 'customer responding' Carenado at some point once the F33 is released. I can't imagine the FSD version will be better, it might just arrive a little sooner.

So I vote that it must be something else.

Plus if it was 'commonly seen on TV in the 1950's' then I don't remember seeing Hoss arrive at Ponderosa in a V-tail :mixedsmi:

[JAllen]

A Beech V35B Renaissance Bonanza built in 1974 perhaps? Dual control luxury model?

[6297J]

Speaking of 'V' tails, I'm hoping it's a Fouga Magister, even though I can't make it fit any of the clues.

[kilo delta]

I'd like to see Restauravia convert their Fouga into a native FSX model :wiggle:

The show 'Bonanza' aired for the first time on 12 September 1959..

The V35 with the V-tail would fit the Has a 'prominent control surface feature' hint.


If it is a Bonanza there is a good one out for FSX in freeware, a P-35 if I recal

A freeware one, not from a commercial developer. ;)

[6297J]

The Beech?

a source of great and sudden wealth or luck; a spectacular windfall: The play proved to be a bonanza for its lucky backers.

[clmooring]

I guessed the v tail bonanza too because of the prominent control surface and I believe carenado had a v-tail bonanza available in an older version of flightsim.

I first thought of sky king and the 310 but the prominent control surface didnt seem to fit. I still dont get that clue?

[monk1]

How about the V-Tail Twin Bonanza?

but, on the page the first post links to it says:


Name That Plane!

The first 10 correct guesses will receive a free copy of our new title, which will be released on or about April 1, 2010. All you have to do is Name That Plane!.
