Outstanding ! This is going to be great ! Thanks so much ! Excellent ! Regards, Scott

Oops - wrong responder.

no worries - having different opinions is as ordinary as being able to discuss them politely should be. Looks like we did both. Cheers, Jan and in the interest of staying on topic - looks like Pilot's is making relatively quick and positive upgrades to their Boeing - so that's great. Everything's coming up Milhouse

I might have to try that whenever I’ve the time. I spent some time in Luzon not to mention money as well like in new sunglasses new tv new jewelry new cell phone etc. getting back to the campaign does that use thế latest Philippine scenery package. I’m on a iPhone so can’t download just yet to see what’s all needed.

Excellent guess though, lol:ernaehrung004:

John,have you ever gotten to sit and talk with Bud Anderson? hes kinda shy,but he will talk once comfortable.i lost his number after i moved to utah (lost all my contacts,sighs).. but Buds a really nice guy,shoot him your interest and knowledge of P-51s and i know he will speak to you,hes 101? this year i think. but i called him on his 100th and he was still very sharp.

Not sure I will get to that any time soon but will keep it in mind for later.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Civilian propeller skins Description: Army Air Corps paint scheme for clipped wings Cubs. Texture work on both of my Clipped Wings Cub models (taildragger and tricycle landing gear.)

That is a great article! I had been planning on doing the repaint since this past fall, and when I read the recent issue of Aeroplane, it got me energized to finally get it made. Back in the early 2000s, the History Channel had a brilliant series called "Battle Stations", which I recorded the episode on the P-51 and would replay it often (to get my Mustang fix, back before sites like Youtube sprang up). In that episode, there are great segments of interviews with original WWII Mustang pilots, one of them being Don Blakeslee. You can get sort of a sense of the character he had by his great responses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVCe2dZMc0w

Another thing it’s possible the aircraft were damaged after the first bombing and the AI they need better air files or a better handling planes then we do so if they have a couple of flak holes that might be enough to keep them from sticking their neck back out on the chopping block again. Kinda like sticking your finger in a fire. Hurt like Hell didn’t it. Don’t do that anymore I’m going home to mamma and that’s that. I’m just touchy up on some basics I’m sure some of the more experienced campaign making modders who have tried the same stunts you are will be along shortly but sometimes we overlook the small stuff and I’m sure more than one spark plug has been pulled or carburetor taken apart when the only thing was wrong was it was out of gas. Embarrassing yes but **** happens.

Yeah Huub. I used to run the 2004 in FSX before the conversion and they did work. As an aside, the solid nose version of Milton's A-26 does this too but for some reason the glass nose has normal bomb bay animation. (Or maybe it's the other way around.) As I said, I did get them to work but it affected the main gear display and animation. Is this a common problem during conversions? Is there anything I can do about it other than go back to the 2004 version? (And IF I do get it to work, would it be okay to post the modified MDL file? I'd ask permission but from what I've read Roy is tough to get a hold of.) I am still quite new to MCX (and WAY behind the curve for FS2020). There are a couple of planes I'd like to build but I'm still having trouble tackling this stuff.

I'm probably gonna do the same thing this weekend when I get paid.

There's probably not enough info for a good livery replication, but I came across this today: https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/cuban-defector-flies-stolen-an-2-to-florida/

Thanks, Huub. It's great scenery and definitely had me fooled. ATM I am at another crossroads with my current system. Heard a loud 'pop' a few days back on start-up, and no sound since. I think one or two capacitors quit on me in the logitech sound system. Currently looking for a place to fix. Three years back my AMD 7970 video card died, was then replaced with the current GeForce 1660Ti. Mouse and keyboard have been replaced just last week due to frequent wireless connection failures. I guess the need to upgrade to a new system has now shifted from a want, to more of a need, lol ! The system was built in 2011, so I guess more frequent failures are to be expected at this age.

There - I fixed it for you! :biggrin-new:

I like to try to get screenshots from interesting angles. (Most turn out boring after I go back and look at them again, so they don't end up here.) I was looking to get a head-on shot after passing the mountains just east of Los Angeles and that's when I spotted the orbs.

Wonderful! I was hoping for a few paint schemes appropriate for South America, where I spend the most amount of my time flying. Forest

John what weapon system did you go off to fly after UPT? Kent

It is much easier to see the gauges with the panel this color, hope someone will add this to a livery. So far all the new liveries have beenfor the wheel version only, hopefully someone will add the float and ski versions also.
