Hi guys, Just wanted to say hi and also to post a few screenshots of an amazing plane which was added to my hanger last weekend. It's the T34C Mentor by Javier Rollon and in my mind, one of the most amazing aircraft I've ever flown in a simulator; be it FSX or X-Plane. I know it's been out for a while; but hey, it takes me a while to catch up with things ! She's really an absolute joy to fly; so hats off to the developer and many thanks, because she really is that good! Hope you like the screenshots Dom http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440373/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440373/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440459/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440459/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440749/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440749/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483532262/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483532262/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440675/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482440675/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483530136/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483530136/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483529784/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483529784/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483529722/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8483529722/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482438323/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482438323/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482438275/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482438275/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482437745/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482437745/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482437637/'>http://www.flickr.com/photos/41736044@N07/8482437637/'>T34CMentor by http://www.flickr.com/people/41736044@N07/'>domfliss, on Flickr

A sneak peak for fellow 3Ders. This 737 cockpit is mostly done and is getting UV mapped and textured at the moment. This should really bring the cockpit together nicely. Not much remaining...the galleys and cabin refinement, then basically small details. We might trade polygon detail for texture detail as we progress, we'll just have to wait and see, but it is usually easier to remove polygons than add them in my experience. TomK IXEG

Still in Dubai. What a magnificient scenery.

Hi everyone, we are busy chipping away on the 737. The exterior is coming along nicely, recent work added landing gear detail and further improvements in various areas. We had quite a time getting the landing gear strut compression and damping coefficients right to maintain the great crosswind capability this aircraft enjoys - so I figured I upload a video of a crosswind landing like I did many during recent testing. The video shows a landing at a very stiff crosswind, more than I have ever done in the real aircraft. In fact the limit for dry runways for us is 30kts. Boeing demonstrated 35kts - but thats for testpilots, the right stuff and all that . Tom is also in posession of the next two autopilot videos, narration and cutting is done, he just needs to annotate them with his nifty arrows. This might give you guys a chance to follow my rapid-fire rambling. Pester him to finish and upload them if you please. Jan

Insane, Carenado quality, excepts it looks better

Thank You Kris

Mariodonick, That was an excellent set of screenshots! Thanks for posting them.
