Thank you for all your work on the dual-view silhouettes I am really grateful.

I just ran a recap of those still out standing and found just 12 that I have in myu .sqb file covered.

This mostly includes some from my original list plus a couple of others.

DA50  EFOX  LK19  PULR  SR20  SR22  S22T  SLG2  SLG4  XA41  XA42  YK52

Best regards

Mike

Hi Mike

No problem :)

DA50 -  you aren't going to get a DV for this one as I am unable to find a top down (or bottom up) drawing or other image for it. If you have any success please let me know.

I will have a go at the others soon.

Cheers

Thanks Rick,

There are mostly videos showing the aircrafts performance than stills, and I noticed that there is more than one aircraft type for ICAO code DA50 but they are slightly different in profile.

Just noticed something else I can't find B350. I've looked in the Gallery and cant ss it in there. There is a BE30, which is very similar.

Best regards Mike

just about to go out and indulge in my other hobby, model railways.

Hi Mike

I'll add B350 to the list. :)

I think that some of the images that you may be seeing (if they are the 3-views on Google) are of miss-meta tagged DA40s. I nearly got caught out myself. It's a mine field out there. I may see if I can capture a still from a video - I have done that with a couple of the standard silhouettes where no decent side shot stills existed. Only two a/c variants fall under the DA50 ICAO code - the Magnum and SuperStar (+/- DA-50 designator)

Enjoy your trains - I have been becoming more familiar with some train related stuff as my Dad gets me to bid on eBay to feed his Hornby Dublo addiction.

Is that three rail Dublo?

He does both 2 and 3 rail, but appears to be mostly 3 rail. I've mostly been buying parts for him to refurbish / repair locos. He got my old 2 rail set, from when I was a nipper, going really smoothly again.

Rick,

Thank you so so much for all those you've done. It is all very much appreciated.

There are 2 others not done yet, somehow I must have missed them. PULR  and SA02.

Sorry that they keep turning up!

All the best

Mike

Rick,

Thought it was about time to show a current state of my .Sqb file using the current range of logos/silhouette.

This was taken a few seconds ago so there are a few records with no details waiting the system to catch up.

Looking good, Mike! Thanks for sharing.

I have done all the ones you have requested apart from the DA50 - still looking for the perfect top shot.

The PULR (P&M AVIATION, PulsR) - if you know of a good 3-view drawings let me know. I have managed to coble something, but was unable to find any decent drawings / plans to base from, so the end result is a mash-up of three other silhouettes to roughly represent that airframe.

I will try and get them posted up later today / tomorrow.
