Searching for various WW2 era aircraft

Hi, looking all over for the following freeware aircraft, for FS9 or FS8... not having much luck. Any pointers gratefully received...

DH Moth/Gypsy Moth
Hawker Audax/Hart
Westland Wapiti
Avro Tutor
Wellington bomber

These are all planes my grandfather worked on 1938 - 43 ish and I'd love to take some pics for him in FS... :)
They don't seem to exist though, I was shocked to find... the diversity available lead me to believe I could find absolutely anything.....lol. I suspect he's going to have to make do with pics of Sea Fury's, Hurricanes and Spitfires... not bad I guess, was hoping to give him a broader range though...

Thanks

Krigl

The first four of those I don't know of any FS9 models for, although they do fall into the cataegory that Frank Elton may produce one day.

I think Alphasim do a Wimpy for FS9.

A lot of CFS2 models are FS9 compatible ;)

Thanks guys... I wasn't hoping for much - my search was fairly thorough... but I'm going to try out the CFS2 files and see, thanks for the tips!

Of the Hawker Hart/Westland Wapiti era though (well, a bit before), Ted Cook has just released his landplane version of the Fairey IIID...

Thanks Charlie, I'll check it out. I only really want stuff my dear grandfather has worked with right now though, but who knows, might be a nice bird anyway, eh?

Cheers
