GMax R4D Release

[Guest NealT]

No, but I am looking forward to it :)

[Guest TWVA395]

There isn't a definite release date. But I think I know the order of the software to come out: KRDG Scenery, B-25 Patch, R4D. And it shouldn't be too long for any of them.:-jumpyhttp://vatsim.pilotmedia.fi/statusindicato...tor=OD1&a=a.jpg------------------Kenneth WeikTWVA395 / HRDwww.fly-twva.comkwsqd@comcast.net------------------

The new R4D and the KRDG scenery package should be in your Christmas Stocking at the latest!RegardsTimhttp://www.cambridgeflyingclub.com/images/timavatar2.gif

Ah, I see at least two of our three BTBT helpers from the convention have not only made it back to their homes across the pond, but have returned to the forum. This would seem to be a good time to reward them for their hard work by making them famous.....http://www.fssupport.com/maam_sim/IMG_0018.JPGThis was taken aboard the R4D right after the stewardess announced that Captain Strine had relinquished the controls to First Officer Rambow. ;-)That would be Ian Pearson on the left, demonstrating abject terror and good sense, Keith Maton in the center, who has just ordered a large portion of cow and a beer of unspecified brand for his last meal, and Tim Westnutt who, experienced "cargo dog" that he is, is proving once again that a good pilot, given the proper training, can sleep through any crisis - or perhaps it was just the Margaritas.We had a great show at Reading, and I'll expand a bit on that in another post in a bit, but thanks again to our three able assistants, and to partener Bill Womack.To clarify one thing about the statements above, the MAAM KRDG scenery will actually be initially released on the CD with the FS9 Gmax R4D, then immediately thereafter as a free download. It is true that there is no definitive release date, but we are flapping as fast as we can. We'll try for "Turkey Day" for the R4D (the bird, not the nation), that's the end of November, but it all depends on the beta test results once the remaining tasks have been completed. The BT patch should be ready and up very soon.CheersBill RambowMAAM-SIM - Rambow, Visser, Banting, Young, Womack, and Hamblyhttp://www.cambridgeflyingclub.com/images/timavatar2.gif

HAHA! What a great picture. Good thing you don't have any strange shots of me. :D:-jumpyhttp://vatsim.pilotmedia.fi/statusindicato...tor=OD1&a=a.jpg------------------Kenneth WeikTWVA395 / HRDwww.fly-twva.comkwsqd@comcast.net------------------

[Guest IanP]

I will get you back for that, Mister Rambow... Oh yes I will... :-hahHi Ken, nice to have met you at last! I'll put up my own shots from the Conference at some point, but have to recover WinXP first. Unfortunately I have just installed a CH Products driver that has totally zonked Windows XP... This'll be the second computer I have rescued from death's door since I got home. Yeesh, ain't it fun, this simming lark. ;-)Ian P.:-halo

[Guest Tim W]

Why is Keith the only one smiling, Last time I saw him he was looking decididly ill after a 3G wingover in Briefing Time! And as for me, I always look like that when Rambow flies!Timhttp://www.cambridgeflyingclub.com/images/timavatar2.gif

[Guest TWVA395]

I sent my pictures to AVSIM, so you'll see those on the main page in the near future.:-jumpyhttp://vatsim.pilotmedia.fi/statusindicato...tor=OD1&a=a.jpg------------------Kenneth WeikTWVA395 / HRDwww.fly-twva.comkwsqd@comcast.net------------------

Hi there,does anybody know a definitive release date of the eagerly awaited GMax R4D and where to order/download the bird?Greetings from Germany, Thomas.

[Guest Feek]

Heh heh, I wasn't the only one who was suffering a bit for a while after that flight. Our infamous Mr. Womack was quite a delicate shade of green as well for a while!K.http://www.all-one-word.com/forumpics/cow.jpg

Matched his shirt then!Timhttp://www.cambridgeflyingclub.com/images/timavatar2.gif

[Guest IanP]

While some of us were grinning like a looney and wishing we had a headset to get a clue what was coming next. ;-)Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the Stearman ride, where I think a few more rides and a couple of briefings would help to give me some confidence with the baseball bat, er, stick! :-hahIan P.:-halo

[Guest jgpullensr]

I know what I'm putting on the top of my Christmas list to "Santa." Going to leave lots of subtle hints, too. (ya, right.) :-wink2 Jim

Uh, yeah. I was a little on edge too after that wing-over :-grnmd -- I just kept telling myself must....not....ruin....Russ'....beautiful....plane.... ugh. Thankfully didn't have to clean the floormats. Naturally, now that I'm back on the ground it was a great flight! It's one thing to be up front and see the earth begin to turn under you. It's quite another to wonder why you are suddenly stuck to the side of the fuselage and look out the waist gunner's window to see nothing but ground! Not only my first ride in a WWII-era bird, but my first high-G turn as well!
