As a Brit I've felt right at home there on my two visits. As a GA/Bush flying fan Plumb Island was an instant choice for me and the fact that you're looking at other airfields/strips in the region is really good news. You mentioned Martha's Vineyard earlier too? Can I suggest a field near NYC and one up Bar Harbor way? That way we could enjoy some quality destinations in the region. Keep up the good work! Hi Bill,

I love New England, and I have plans for lots more scenery up that way. In fact, I'm working on Nantucket right now, and it's looking good. Expect more soon! Bill Thanks, Nick!

Did you purchase from FSAddon, or Simmarket (or elsewhere?) - whichever one, I'd suggest you get in touch with them and see if they can remind you of your serial number and provide you with a link to download if available. thanks, Bill Ben, the publisher you bought Plum Island from handles the re-downloads.

I had to get a new computer, so I don't have the the installer package, and the code to activate it. Could you help me out? Thanks, Ben.

I was wondering if you could share the dimensions of your cockpit that you built a little while back. I just got a bunch of panels and want a permanent desk to install them in to. If you could email those to me that would be great. Thanks, Alex Hi there! I was wondering if you could share the dimensions of your cockpit that you built a little while back.

What you quoted sounds pretty realistic for a system like that. Anyway, enjoy. Bill Hi Deci,
