Brian S. 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 As we wait for updates, I have a small customer request for Aerosoft: This is not based on any rumor or anything like that; I just know that this sometimes happens. Anyway, if you decide to release the Catalina as multiple packages or as a trimmed down package, please release the civilian models (or at least one civilian model) in the first release. I love the historic models for their historic value, but since I fly in the here and now (and I am a wannabe fire-bomber), I'm looking forward to the Civvies the most.

Seadog 2 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Nice work, Erik. I enjoyed watching the You Tube version, and appreciate your sharing this with everyone. Those engines are really rich sounding, and you captured that well.-Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithrin 0 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Thanks Doug, unfortunately I had to save it in stereo instead of 5.1 surround. I'll have to find a way to get that to work but I think it still sounds great! Thanks for the reply good sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JorisVdB 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Is that the throttle quadrant ? Otherwise, I don't have a clue what it's supposed to be...Anyway, great work regarding the detail of the modelling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C 110 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I think that's the first "wing nut" I've seen modeled in FS!Looking good Mathijs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithrin 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I used to have to weigh and count those nuts and all it's brothers and sisters when I was 15 or so, just to earn some money. No fond memories hehehe. Looks nicely detailed. Can't wait to see the worn textures on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesChams 108 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I told you modeling on the Catalina has restarted... see what was done yesterday.Thanks for the preview Mr. Mathijs Kok!I'm guessing that she'll be out around the same time as the A-10 X ??? I guess that I may have to add her to a Bulk Purchase Order #3 instead of 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
