Meridian Aviation An-12 at Birmingham EGBB/BHX

[MKA742]

Great vis Ed! Can I ask, would you mind sharing your aN12 paints aswell?? Thx! And what panel did you you as base for this one? Cheers

[edetroit]

@MKA742 Yes, I am more than happy to share my paints. My panel is not based on any other...it is completely custom with custom gauges apart from the VSI/TCAS.

[MKA742]

@edetroit Thx Ed. Well good for you... Looking forward to yoour next AN-12 vid. If you want to do a real flight, we loaded CBH with oil drills at Ostend and it flew them to Palma to load them on a ship.

[MKA742]

@edetroit Hi man. Dont wanna sound like a bother. But ive been watching avsim and avsim.su but didnt see any repaints yet. Would be awesome thx!!!

[edetroit]

@MKA742 I will try and find some time to upload this paint to avsim tonight.

[MKA742]

@edetroit Thx a lot. The more paints the merryer :P

[edetroit]

@MKA742 you reminded me...I have more than one paint.

[MKA742]

@edetroit ??

[edetroit]

@MKA742 Sorry m8. I missed my window and then went on holiday...I will be back in a few days.

[MKA742]

@edetroit Ah ok! I was wondering ;-) Enjoy m8!

[SLARMYNFF]

Hi nice video!, can You tell me were did You get it, cauz i got one but it isn't working well. Thanks. (P.S. I'm the Sri Lankan Virtual President, and we are arecruiting, we have this aircraft but we need pilots to fly it Thanks)

[rightseat]

Nice Ed, but aren't you supposed to land nose first in the 12?

[edetroit]

Lol, you don't have to land nose first. But definitely nose down on approach.

[n170toga]

I'm learning Xml and gauges development I hope to make panels like yours. They are almost real!

[penneyfour]

lovely!  Inspiring!

[pollyparrotable]

Nice film.  is thes a cessner?

[tadeuprimo]

You're genius. Impossible to be more realistic.

Thanks for make public this fun videos.

[briones1805]

Great and close to reality, as always!

[EinkOLED]

Nice video Ed. I've observed AN-12 at EGPK a few times from it's trip from kiev. Kosice is a nice small city which I've visited before (2006), located in east slovakia near the TETRA mountains. Sky Europe/CSA, both or either one of those airlines operate a 737 service to that small city from prague and other neighbouring countries.. Pronounced k'o'-shit-si

[brodhaq]

pronounded k'o'shi''c'e'

[sonnysingh03]

OMG this is just frikin brilliant!!!

[imabadr]

Very Nice Man It's So Reaaaal The Panel .Plane ....etc R U Going To Make Ur Panel Available To All

[youwani]

Fantastic vid as always ED.

I watched your earlier AN-12 vids and it shows wing views... Does your model have them or is this you magic camera work?

[MKA742]

Very nice video again Ed! Nice panel too. I installed some reflections on the fuselage and above the nose wheel on the cone too, looks very nice in combination with the '3D lights'! Is that paint available, looks awesome!

[BD866]

Another enjoyable video, Ed. Thanks for that.

What's your opinion of the Shockwave lights? Have you experimented much with them?

[edetroit]

Thankyou. Regarding Shockwave lights....well they did "light" the way as it were. That is I made my own light effect using the same technique. I found SW lights too white and too much (in the fog when there was none)

I like to see landing lights on in the day so you will see the effect on all my aircraft...in the night I also add the _L texture.

[BD866]

Haha yes, I had a feeling you might use your editing genious to modify them to your liking; I wish I was in a position to do the same, but it's nice to see your work showcased in your videos, very enjoyable. Thanks.

[rabski105]

Nic Video :D 5* I would like to see AES at Glasgow aswell as Edinburgh:D

[PittsSZ]

Very cool smoky Russian action there, Ed! Love the sounds, too. Gary's EGBB is a favorite destination of mine - looking forward to his Manchester.

[edetroit]

Thankyou John, yes Manchester is certainly an airport to look forward to....I would like to see some AES action for Gatwick and Edinburgh first though.

[edetroit]

Actually talking about sounds John.....there is a very distinctive sound one does not hear much in FS. The Dart engines of the Fokker F-27-200.

Another aircraft I would like to work on.

[PittsSZ]

Agreed, Ed - I saw the F-27 that the U.S. Army Parachute Team use at an airshow a few weeks back, and those Darts do make a distinctive howl....like the HS 748 for the same reason!

[triggerjoe65]

I like that nose window view. Awesome vid!

[OhianPilot]

Great Vid, well, all your vids are great, but i have a question. I know how to install traffic on my FS but they just never shop. What do i do

[edetroit]

Maybe that's because you have male traffic....try some female traffic....they shop like crazy! lol

Sorry I could not resist it.....do you mean they never show up?

[OhianPilot]

ya they never show up but i install them

[rabarbor]

5/5 !

[dbarl64]

nice to show cargo doors opening or pax doors sometimes and cabin interiors

[JamesB767]

brilliant

No BA flights at BHX anymore.

[ypaul123]

Hey ed, sweet video as always.

it's a shame that you nearly stoped fliming videos of the true beautiy of the sky - the pmdg md-11

other than that sweet quality.

[edetroit]

There are many other aircraft that I consider more beautiful than the PMDG-MD-11. (which has a fairly ugly nose) But I am sure I will get around to it.

[immerrocknroll]

The wodkaburner is rolling ... nice vid!

[mistaxray]

Hey Ed, sorry for asking again, but after downloading an awesome 50N Aeroflot Nord paint from Avsimrus I wonder if you still plan to upload your paint. I asume you are still waiting for avsim to fully work again.

Thanks anyways and great job on that movie. 5/5*

[edetroit]

Which paint are you looking for again?

[mistaxray]

The British Airways B737-400 :)

[Slashfan90210]

My home airport (well, not anymore since I moved away years ago) but Brum is still home to me.

Lincolnshire sucks.

[dva511]

where can i get some of ur planes =]

[Qantas25]

Perfect landing at the start, mate! Would have mistaken it for a real AN-12 pilot's landing ;).

[malmo66]

It was probably better than a real AN-12 pilot's landing.

[Qantas25]

Touche.

[Ben123planes]

was that Flybe a Dash 8?

[Fuzkerendude]

yep :)

[jm3XQ]

Nice, I've been to the airport this summer due to a FlyBe-flight from Hanover to Birmingham. But unfortunately I didn't notice any russian birds at that time.

Something different: Did you ever think about building a panel for PMDG's marvellous MD-11?

[edetroit]

I have not purchased PMDG's MD11 yet. I have thought about it but I am no hurry.

[Sikakuhc]

Any chance to get that livery? and btw...is that the AN-12BK(cub) made by Zhyhulskiy?.

[edetroit]

It is the AN-12BK(cub) made by Zhyhulskiy?. Three cheers for Zhyhulskiy!

I will make the paint available.

[Sikakuhc]

nice vid.

[beechjet400]

Nice landing!!

[filipe026]

nice plane !

[mitchellboon]

Nice 5/5
