Who the jeff is developing a new hawk for fs?

Postby The-Black-Sheep » Thu Jan 03, 2008 5:29 pm

Not too long ago, I read somewhere (either here or another forum...not too sure really) that a company was designing/creating a payware hawk (Goshawk, T1 etc) for FS.

Anyone know what company is doing so? Or has my head been so screwed by so much alcohol this xmas, that I'm making up a load of kack?  ;D

Cheers

Maybe...

So far it's full FSX sp2 spec and full 3d clickable VC with not a single 2d gauge other than a popup default GPS.
i will convert to FS9 spec at a later date if FSX is still not popular by then.


As the thread goes on to mention, it's being developed as an FSX aircraft, as historically FS versions are 2-3 years apart, FSX has been around for nearly 18 months (so on that basis we could maybe expect to see FSXI (11 for non-Romans) somewhere between autumn/fall* 2008 and autumn/fall* 2009), and FS9, we must remember is a 4 year old package. :) It would be a bit like asking EA Sports to do an addon for FIFA2006. :)

*look at that, bilingual! ;D ;) ;D

I think it will be converted to FS9 too (which will please me just as much too) and there a posibility, (aka, if this never hapens.. dont set the dogs on me!) of some of the export versions of the T1/A eg Mk50/60 series.

Well Rick himself says "Hawk T1 & T1A only planned or i will never have time to make anything else.", so other varients I'm sure are unlikely.

Still, the T1 is the nicest of all the Hawks!

You never know.. last I saw Rick was asking after some of the avionics and such in the export versions, depends what can be found I guess, and what time is available!

it looks like the Hawk will be able to drop ordnance in FSX!
