Hello from the Netherlands

Hello all,

I decided to make a FGUK account, cause I sometimes have a look at the site and it's easier to have an account here as well.

You might already now me from the official forum (Martien van der P.) and projects I participated in (BO-105 (uvmap), EC-145 (some 3d), A-4K, F-16) and from some scenery models and own started projects (like the MD902 and now Bell 429 (slow progress)).

Also I think I could make myself useful to help with FGUK projects (if I'm done with some projects which have priority). I could do 3d modeling, basic textures/liveries, and some xml scripting.

Hi,

just out of curiosity, have you started that 429 from scratch?
Because there is a freeware project for X-plane which might
just be available for the asking...

Hi timi,

Well yes it's from scratch, and yes I know about the Xplane one. But I already started with my 429 model back in 2017 (don't know if the xplane one is older) and I found it diffucult to abandon my model. And I think I could make a better interior model more looking like RL. And my model is almost finished.

How it looks right now.

I already asked about the freeware one Timi ( couple years ago ) they were ok about it being used. I just never got around to doing it.

Hey Martien. We went 3 years here without a dedicated 3d person or such, now were getting lots of people interested.
Im all for having more on the team as we do have a huge number of projects needing worked on.
I'll get back to you on this.

MV-DP, you have a couple of Private messages waiting for you, one of them is the Bell 429 FDM.

Hey Martien! Nice to have you over here too!

Hello Martien and welcome to the forums.

It's always nice to have some people willing to collaborate.

See you up in the air. Just stay away from the hills and the bloody autopilot.

Autopilots are fine, you just need to know how to treat them...……..
