Hi Ric,
It's the Gee Bee, I had a gold paint job on one a while back, at least I think it was the same aircraft.

Not a jet, but this is the one that I thought you meant.
I knew I'd find it.

Very Happy Hey! What a great looking little plane.....Not the one I was thinking of,but Cool never the less,in fact I am just about done building a staggerwing using the 182 RG for the Base,If you like you can check it out at my Site(http://rilo-aeronautics.com) did this to give the folks an alternative to the Default Plane.It should be done about the 15th of the month.I'll keep on looking for the little Jet as I have a great little project that I want to do using the little jet as a base,as long as I can get permission to use the air files.

Radar, Well I found the little Jet,looks just like I remembered but the air file is all wrong for what I want,have to look elseware. I Uploaded the StaggerWing to Simvation this Morning so it should be out by Monday at the latest,a nice alternate to the basic Model(182 RG) for those with a love for the Nostalgic. Oh! yes! You can find the little Jet at Simvation's Download section under "Concept Aircraft" page 2,it's called the Bd5.

Ric,
I'm looking forward to trying out your new aircraft.
The bd5 is still in 2000 so I don't think that it'll do me any good in 204.
Take a look at this, any help?

I wonder if someone could build a sim model of the GROB?, that's the little parasite plane the airforce dropped out the belly of the B-36 bomber, and then would fly it to a hook on the bottom of the B-36. I'll bet that would be a challenge and a half. I can hear the profanity now.

Aloha All, The Grob that Leadfoot is talking about is a very small experimental jet that never got into prodution becouse it was dangerous as hell! Oh! Radar, my plane is now D/loadable from Simvation if you still want to try it out. And your right Leadfoot it would be a hair puller of a model. Ric

Nice work!

Thanks Radar, When I get a "Well Done" it makes building the planes a Joy to Build! And the PIC"S are really Good, did you fix up the airport in the background? Seems there is a lot of Planes on the Ground. Ric

Ric,
I do enjoy that aircraft and as for the ground traffic, I have Ultimate Traffic at 100% and GA-Traffic has loaded me up also.
I pay a huge penalty (in FPS) at any airport or even a lonely little strip but the realism makes it worth while.
