I left the wireframe on in case I needed to do any adjustments - damn! It's nigh on right, straight out of the paintbox... /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> weeeelll, there are a few little tweaks and pulls I do need to do, but she's good enough to show and tell... A few more days yet, but this is a kept promise. Enjoy!

Thanks guys.....eyes down and looking /thumbup1.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :thumbup: border= 0 alt= thumbup1.gif />

possibly available following if you can be bothered registering... There is one on AVSim for the default FSX 321, filename: airnza321fsx.zip

QUOTE (AndrewJamez @ Oct 22 2010, 01:01 PM) Those custom skins look REAL Good, however the model is very old and if you can hang on a bit longer, PMDG is in the middle of doing a Dash 8 with full systems modeling. I'm sure it will worth waiting for. I guess it'll only be released for FSX, but I'll probably get it anyway for my 'standby' FS PC - my simpit is only running FS9 at the moment. I'm having some stability issues with the Nvidia Surround drivers which need to be sorted out so I can get back on Vatsim, then I'll look at moving everything to...

Well believe it or not the Tauranga machine is having a rocket motor fitted. The APU/turbine engine had some issues that made it impractical for flying....not that the rocket engine is proving much better. The major issue at the moment is the amount of residual thrust at "idle". Braking is a definite problem and may require a drag shute. He is not flying at the moment as he has a stauch going with airways over fees that is going to court. They will not issue him with a takeoff clearance during controlled hours.

Thanks Paul, my kind of stuff...downloading now.

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Oct 6 2010, 05:14 PM) I do have the Capt Siim X load F18 , currently not installed , i recall it being the two seat version , the paint still requires a painting program , the free most use GIMP and Imagetool,with that should be able paint the default Hornet . I have heard people say that the CS Paint kit works fine with the default, if you can PM me it I would greatly appreciate it but if not ill just try my hand at the slow way /plane.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :plane: border= 0 alt= plane.gif />

I added a black paint job...the original is still there for those who love it. Mfraser to create a slingload fuction...you simply need to edit the aircraft.cfg file and add a few lines just above electrical. I will post a link to a page that helped me to achieve this. Sling Load Page Two slings in action...gotta love this heli.

Markus , Have them all covered and they work fine in FSX , I prefer the old pin stripe ... /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif /> and yeah what is it with this "dull & boring low-viz" , like a bunch off girls trying to get in with the in-crowd or no imagination , low-viz ... i regularly see RNZAF Herc s heading back north - dark as hell stick out like dogs balls and now the Ice season is on us we have the USAF LC-130s heading South to the polar region .. they have a day glow for spotting in case off crash yet they are harder to spot !...

Great Thanks Chris , reinstalling the Goose , did an accidental file dump last week /blink.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :blink: border= 0 alt= blink.gif /> , only coming back and running now , a good prezzie for me . /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Chari , i do have a few issues with ' less than 100% commercial bedside manner ' a Yak , F104 yeah .. must try that again , .. Idlewild International Airport. You have to be of a certain age, even to know where that is... /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> you have to be a certain age , but i,m sure can reproduce screens /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Sorry should have specified FSX. thanks for the HU it does look good /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

You don't need it Ian! /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif /> Maybe if it was FSX compatible.. yes, but since you mostly use X you might be better to spend elsewhere /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif /> Otherwise, this is a fantastic plane. One thing I noted today doing my reinstall of it is that their website and forum seem to have gone. I'm going to have to hunt through my discs now and hope I have the various patches around here somewhere /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border=...

QUOTE (Naki @ Sep 21 2010, 11:17 PM) Sure looks nice ...but I have orders that my next add on payware plane must be a warbird /ohmy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :o border= 0 alt= ohmy.gif /> Proud off ya Paul /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif />

QUOTE (IslandBoy77 @ Sep 20 2010, 09:18 AM) James - love your Avatar. Does that mean you play BF or COD as well as simming? I play quite a few other games but my avatar is Arma 2 /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif />

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Sep 17 2010, 03:22 PM) You gotta love these little addons , imagine how tough the air battles 70 seventy years back with these training devices would have been /ohmy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :o border= 0 alt= ohmy.gif /> In my combat sim days, I ran a Flanker 2.0 online head-to-head ladder and met a RL (Greek) F-16 pilot who was *unbeatable* in the sim. He said he used 100% RL tactics and that he and other members of his squadron often used the sim to test tactics. This was with a relatively old sim, old PCs and no TrackIR. What they could do now...
