Does anyone have these models?

There are some beautiful models - I am especially interested in the Wright Flyer #3, the Spirit of St. Louis, the DC3 and the Airship. I have not seen models with this detail before. Unfortunately, the link for these models is no longer working - I just get a 404 error and a return to the infoseek.co.jp homepage. I've translated the page and it seems that there is (or was) a club called "FMS Wings" in Japan and these models were available to members.

I've searched these forums but found no information about the "FMS Flyers".

Does anyone have these specific models or know where I can download them?

Thanks.

Thanks, ggunners.

I have most of the linked models, I was looking for those Japanese planes to get an idea of how they were constructed/skinned. The detail is some of the best I've seen on any FMS (or any sim) model. I was hoping to learn something from them as flying "art". I aspire to develop models with this level of detail.

Thanks for the links, though. I didn't have the blimp in my collection. Nice to chat with you, I've been reading your comments for a long time. You're always very helpful.

OK, didn't know you already knew what you wanted.

Google is a wonderful thing. Try searching for "FMS Wings"

You'll find:

All models not specifically indicated as for members only are downloadable for free.

Hi again, ggunners.

Yes, the models I am interested in are not available for download, and the member that they belong to no longer has a web presence at the link pointed to - that's why I was asking this community if anyone had the unavailable models in their collection.

By translating the page I did discover that there might be a remnant of "FMS Wings" still around - they want $15 Euro to join and download the models. I have to say I'm a bit leery of sending off CC info to a free-hosted Japanese website. If I can't find the models anywhere I will download the images and try to work from there, but it is so much more difficult to learn that way. Ah, well.

Thanks again for the assistance.

They have one plane that looks like it was in the X-men movie! Anyway what about those motors at the bottom, can they be added to the models or something?
