This is the SOH_a26 model with the FSX conversion by John Terrell of WBS. It's fabulous. I love the pilot figure as well...not as smooth as the carenado/alabeo pilot, but very detailed, and slightly different when flying a civilian bird as well...this is one I would love to see as an A2A with Accu-sim.

Adrian, I found the plane at SOH warbird archive. There's a FSX conversion set of files as well, including some additional nose variants, all done by WBS dev John Terrell. Just do a search under FSX American Aircraft at SOH.
