Olivier Marechal was working on a Sonex using FS Design Studio, but the project was never finished.

I'd love to get my hands on one too and I think my user name verifies that!   ;D

Unless you have managed to get his source files your builder would be starting from scratch. Modeling for FSX is pretty involved if you want a quality model. You might need a pretty big wallet

Although I model homebuilts I'm afraid I have no interest in special orders.

I would like to think a reputable builder from here could get the source files using his good name and carry on from there.

I want a top quality model and I will pay top dollar.

It really does not work that way very often. That's an old mesh that would have been designed for a version prior to FSX. If I were to do this plane frankly I would start from scratch as I have found that trying to get old mesh to look good in FSX tends to be more trouble than it is worth.

I could do one. Full Bore down to custom gauges and a very detailed VC...and it would cost you over a grand easy. That would also come with an agreement that you can't sell it without paying royalties to me.

My advice is to start learning how to make one yourself. We all started by thinking "I sure would like to have a ____for FS". There is a lot of help available to get you going, and you might end up with a cool custom Sonex at the end that only cost you time!

Hi,

Happy to read that somebody knows me and my work in progress

I would like to think a reputable builder from here could get the source files using his good name and carry on from there.

lets see

$35+ perhour and more than 1,000 hours to make

I doubt it somehow

Is that really what payware developers make?!   :o

I'm in the wrong business if so! 

Does it means that I can sell my Sonex at $35,000

That's a very good looking model! I'm glad to see the original is still alive
