Hi All,
Anyone have a new link for the OZx Goose?
There are a couple of trips on Misty that seem like a perfect fit.

Thanks,
GregSS

OZx went bust a decade ago.. aussie and Lockon also dead.

Not sure if it's the original version but there is still an old link and an updated turbo version at:

If they don't work let me know and I'll look at my old archived files for a copy of that ole Goose!!

Norm,
It looks like that Goose package will convert either the default FSX or OZx Goose to a turbine version, which is interesting.  They don't have the full OZx version, but since it can update the default one, I think I will try that and see how it is as a turbine (I always wanted to fly a turbine beaver IRL but never had the chance and I might hunt down one of those too!).
I am guessing there is a paint kit somewhere for the default goose and maybe I can put Misty colors on it if I like the way it handles.
Off for a new type rating!
Thanks for the find!

Norm,
I thought that was only the OZx Goose, but I have the repaint downloaded and will apply it right away.
Also got the turbine version going and should be flying by tomorrow evening on a few familiarization flights with the Misty scenery set up!
Thanks everyone!

Norm,
Thank you!  I will try that one out tonight.
I converted N015MM to a Turbo Prop Beaver last night for a test flight..pic attached.
