May 5, 200917 yr I'm trying to track down a freeware motor glider I used to love flying, but I don't remember what it's called and would really appreciate any help finding it.I seem to recall it had a name similar to "arienne," but I could be totally off. In addition to the main vc, it comes with a second vc that also shows the pilot's body--the pilot happens to be wearing blue jeans.If things rings a bell with anyone, please let me know.Thanks,Charlie "Even Ozzy's wagging his tail again. Liam who?"
May 5, 200917 yr I don't fly gliders, but the only name that comes to mind about motor gliders is Stemme... Rick
May 5, 200917 yr Antares?Antares 18 is a 'self sustaining' glider (not self launching), Antares 20 is a self launching variant. They are made by Lange FlugzeugbauCompany website is here if you want pics to confirm whether it is the one you are on about: http://www.lange-flugzeugbau.com/You'll also find those gliders featured in the gliding simulator Silent Wings (which is excellent by the way, probably the best PC-based flight sim as far as flight modeling goes)Al Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
May 5, 200917 yr Try this site.....http://www.virtualsoaring.org/They have got one as well as loads of other gliders.cheers Andy
May 5, 200917 yr Author Thanks guys - I've found it.It's the Aeriane Swift. I found out about it on the screen shot forum quite awhile ago. I seem to remember there being some debate about whether it's technically a motor glider or an ultralight.In either case, it is fantastic to fly--I think anyone would find it a welcome addition to their hanger.If memory serves, it's available here in the Avsim library. As the library is a bit buggy at the moment, but as soon as I can connect, I'll post the link here. Definitely worth the download.Thanks again for your replies,Charlie "Even Ozzy's wagging his tail again. Liam who?"
May 5, 200917 yr Author Hi again,Still can't connect to the Avsim library, but here's an alternate link in the meantime:http://www.fsdome.com/php-bin/download.php...design=standardLike I say, it's just fun to fly--even more so if you sim with 3D glasses. Check it out.Charlie "Even Ozzy's wagging his tail again. Liam who?"
