Wow...very nice work!!:-bigangel

That's my next FSX purchase! I can't wait.Will it be download or DVD?My first flight will re-enact the ill fated trip of Flight 19.Hopefully, I'll make it back to land.

Both download and CD versions will be available.Bill RambowMAAM-SIM http://www.fssupport.com/maam/hgrsm_blkani.gif

Will this masterpiece be available for FS9 also?

The proper question is the reverse. The initial package will be for FS9, only. That's because the poor old turkey has been in the oven so long! We'll see about the FSX version afterward.Bill RambowMAAM-SIM http://www.fssupport.com/maam/hgrsm_blkani.gif

Well, it certainly looks well worth the wait and I'm certain it'll fly as good as it looks. Thanks for having the wisdom to stay with to FS9. Hopefully the porting to FSX won't be too bad, best of luck with that.

Bill,Just a quick check on the progress, I was hoping to have the TBM for my birthday, which is today.ThanksHarry

Happy Birthday, Harry! Sorry, it looks like the end of April before we have a finished model to test, then most of May to make any necessary fixes and finalize things. The absolute drop-dead date for us is WWII Weekend at MAAM, which is June 6-7-8, so I promise it will be no later than that. Though we did not meet our hoped for early spring release, we'll beat the end of the season to the finish line. So hang in there - the Turkey is almost ready to come out of the oven. :-)Bill RambowMAAM-SIM http://www.fssupport.com/maam/hgrsm_blkani.gif

Thanks Bill,I will look at it as a belated Birthday Present.Keep up the good work.Harry

As requested here's a bunch of TBF WIP screenies. As you might know, because of lack of TBM-3 cockpit photo's the TBF/TBM-1 and 1-C models are going to be main feature of our initial Avenger package, together with MAAM's own 'museum quality' bird of course.
