When you say "design an aircraft" are you talking about a repaint? When, in this forum, you call for someone to "design and aircraft" it is interpreted to mean that you want a complete new build model, which, for a basic model should take about 120+ man-hours (and probably more).

If you're talking about a repaint, why don't you try it yourself? It's a lot easier than you think.

I was kinda wondering that myself, Felix . . .

Also, why not just get permission from someone to use THEIR models that have already been built? It's usually a great honor for most designers to have a VA want to use their aircraft (I know it would be for me). There are plenty of freeware models out there that are great for VA use, and include all the usual goodies plus GREAT VCs and panels.

Sorry about the confusion but NO I am not looking for a replaint, I am looking for a whoel new aircraft built. I understand it would take alot of man hours, Thast why real money comes into play. Anywasy i have looked around and on one makes the aircraft we fly lol I am looking for a Beech Be99, the only ones i can find are AI 99's also i am looking for a Cheiftan and a lance. Not alot of people would request those aircraft, we have a pretty solid 1900 but iv i wanted to upgrade Im sure it would be easy to find a 1900 iv head there are some good ones out there. Hope this explains it a little better

Would it not be a lot easier & more convenient to change your fleet?

PS. Sorry. I just checked your site. I see your VA is based on a real-world company.

Ender - here's a neat job for you ... a fully detailed Beech 99 airliner, with full eye-candy and VC, textured, of course. estimate 220 man-hours (it's an easy plane, anyway) at 15/hr ... Think you're up to it?

(Let's not even ask the Eaglesoft guys, they're expensive)

Well . . . maybe. I've got so many unfinished projects, it would be nice to have one to work on that I can get some real help on!

Only problem is I don't have the skills necessary to do airfiling! Roll Eyes

I've never been able to do it before, so you would have to find someone else to do it.

Now.

We have the Beech 1900 IV, right?

The Beech Be99?

Anything else? Just email me a list of all the ones you need, and I'll just start at the beginning . . . Grin
