This is my first post here so be gentle with me I've researched the Hamilton All Metal Aircraft for several months and am convinced none are available for FS9. Therefore, (not being a designer myself) I'd like (beg?) someone (pay?) to create this old 1924 crate for us (the FS9 flightsim community).

For more info and pictures look here: http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/bai/eielson.htm It's basically a 3/4 size, single-engine Ford Tri-Motor. The Hamilton NC10002 was purchased and flown to Alaska in 1924 by Noel Wien (founder, Alaska Airlines)

Thank you for your consideration.

Carl Ben Eielson High School in Fairbanks Alaska has a good history regarding one of America's most-famous fliers (#2 after C. Lindbergh)http://www.northstar.k12.ak.us/schools/beh/namesake/namesake.html Hope this gets an aircraft builder inspired to build this plane for FS9. Thnx again, Bill
P.S.  Lindbergh had a similar problem -- hence the Ryan.
