Following the success of the last poll, (which the DHC Chipmunk won Grin

) I have decided to do another poll.

Place any number of votes you like, and I'll announce the winner in July. In the meantime, feel free to discuss the aircraft in the poll.

Would you consider a Westland Lysander II or III? This is an unique aircraft with specal STOL characteristics and an interesting WW II history.

Not really WWII but I would love to find someone who could produce a T3 or 'Sedburg' glider which I qualified on when I was an air cadet.

)

Sorry for the late reply.
The chipmunk is going well, and I anticipate a release date later this month (Probably the 24th)
I have encountered a couple of bugs. Firstly, It is prone to stalling, secondly, the engine cuts out if it is on the ground, and thirdly, the pilot, stick, and panel cannot be seen through the canopy glass. The chippie will incorporate my first ever VC, 2 repaints (British Airways, and White with Green), and sone AI Flightplans for the UK and USA, I am trying to get some photos to make a custom panel, and If anyone can help, I will be very happy

You learn something new everyday -

I thought North American made the B-25 Mitchell

but my surprise was the Vickers Windsor.. now that's a "I didn't know that!" plane.

A PBY Catalina would be nice but it won't let me vote Sad

(when I click "submit vote" it sends me back to the FS2002 index).

AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!

I'm not sure about the mitchell myself, Some books say Boeing, some say North American.
The Vickers Windsor is very much unknowen, only 4 were ever built, and none survive today. Sad

I can't voteeither, so just post what you want to vote for, I'll close the poll, and at the end, I'll count posted support.

I say either a Short Sunderland or PBY Catalina. The Catalina would be nice as i'm yet to see a nice one of those for any sim.
