If this is a double post, please delete it. But I just noticed that CBFS has the D.H.114 Heron released as is, not completely done, but infinitely better than anything we've had for this aircraft. I don't recall seeing a posting or a sticky here. Anyway, I just wanted to give a heads up JIC.

Well, there may be another one around before long. :)

Early, early, EARLY days (ignore the streaky windows, untextured engines, etc....), but getting there.

This just keeping me occupied between sorting out things on the upcoming Me-163.

Looks great Mike. Any plans for the Lycoming IO-540 powered Riley Heron?

We'll see how it goes, haven't really decided one way or the other yet. Right now, there will be the retractable-geared and non-retractable Gipsy Queen versions, at least.

I flew in the restored Jersey Airlines one a few years ago, and have always wanted to do a Heron since then!

Nice...! I love these planes. Excellent work on the windows, Mike.

I cant believe someone would bolt on Lycomings to one of these British classics. sigh.... :S
