Additionally, this model will demand the pilot's attention as we are building in engine failure effects. Best to all Paul Guess I better plan on buying two of them then!! Glad to hear it's progressing well - sounds exciting and especially with sounds by Aaron Swindle - there always great! Thanks for the update, Paul. Dan …it’s great being a kid again – without the glue! ;D

Sorry that we are not more active on th e forum, but this project has turn out to be a greater challenge than thought. Besides developing a unique sound file, we have had to develop new gauge sets; 3 needle manifold press gauges, 3D fuel tank qty and tank gauges and switches among other things. Below is a shot of the cockpit. Much more to do, but it is taking shape Best Paul

After repeatedly wiping up a rather large drool pool that seemed to appear mysteriously on my computer desk whenever I perused this post , my wife (heretofore known as 'the little woman') wishes to know if there's a release date set. Oh yeah.....me too!! Better hurry, she's started sandbagging around the computer room!!

Great news Gil! The ATO/CTO combo is going to be a hard act to follow for sure! On the other hand, a nice new (old) Pitcairn or Kellet would be pleasant for a Sunday drive. Can't help it, when someone says things like 'WACO' biplane and Autogyro I get goosebumps. Guess I'd better plan ahead and stock up on paper towels eh?

What Gil failed to mention is that we're considering retooling our WACO Taperwing Package as our first FSX offering. The only hold up for us at this point is finishing the Stinson and waiting for Abacus to release an update to version 3.0.
Some how my earlier post was deleted when I was editing it. There is but one more complicting factor. I'm in the final stages of my flight training and with my practical exam just about a month away, I'm setting aside all other distractions to allow me to bone up on my book work and fly as often as possible to get sharp.
Best Paul
