I notice that my Bushman autogyros have been uploaded to the FS2004/Vintage section.

As the author and owner of these files I must point out that I DID NOT UPLOAD THEM and that they are not my original zipped archives.

I had every intention of sharing these files with my friends here at SimV but under my terms and splitting the archive is just not on.

To the (probably) good natured person who has decided to spread my work for me I would like to say thank you but please don't do it again without my consent and please, NEVER break up mine nor anyone else's original archives.

Further to this,
SimV have kindly pulled the files for the moment.
I will be uploading to this site officially later today.

In the meantime, I am updating the models slightly to make them a little more repaint-friendly.  If I get that sorted today then SimV will get the new models and textures included in full packages so that no updates will need to be downloaded.

Hi Kevin - while I don't know who uploaded them - I did take out the concorde gauge &  refer folk to the page if they needed it - as most folk will have that already & it is 3MB -

All part of the daily 'file preparation' - which can include things like removing default panel & sounds - & aliasing the panel/sound folders - converting BMP screenshots to JPG (Once had 13MB of screenshots in a 15MB file)  - removing duplicate files - fixing incorrect aircraft.cfg's - fixing incorrect panel or sound aliasing, etc - all part of the daily chore that goes on here. - Reducing user problems & download time. I used to alert authors of the error but stopped as I rarely got any thanks.

I respect your wishes to have an all inclusive package of course & will include whatever official upload you send us.

Thanks

Thanks Pete, uploading as we speak.
All good practices that reflect the quality of this site and its attention to detail. Ordinarily, I would not have included the concorde gauge in the package because of its size and as you say, most simmers will probably have it.

But in the case of this aircraft, it is so vital that I just had to put it in to minimise the posibility of errors in installing, particularly for beginners.

So, sorry for the large file size and all the duplication between both models.

My packages are relatively tiny when compared to most of the stuff appearing these days...  Wink
