Fleet Air Arm Hunter Trainer repaints

[spatialpro]

I just uploaded the following repaints to www.classicbritishfiles.com if anyone is interested. They should also be on FlightSim.com later. There are seven repaints for Dave Garwood's Hunter Trainers in Fleet Air Arm silver-dayglo "late" colours, including 700Z, 738, 759, 764 and 800 NAS, plus HMS Heron station flight and the Air Direction Training Unit (ADTU). Custom spec maps are included.

Have a great weekend.

Hello,

Great screens!
How do you get the FSX model?

Well done:applause: Nice to see some repaints for Dave's T model.

Great paints! I have two more FRADU paints as well (T.8C and T.7 - 1982 time frame).

[ZsoltB]

Hello,

Thank you very much!

Zsolt

[ZsoltB]

Available at Repaint kit?

I found it!

[Lateral-G]

Thanks!

With all the hubbub over the F-16D, Mirage, L-39 and other great planes that have recently come out this gem by Dave gets overlooked.....and that is inexcusable.

Which VC texture is responsible for the clean cockpit
glass?

[Wings of Gold]

With the release of these wonderful FAA T.8 textures, all we need now, for really good FAA coverage, are some GA.11 textures (RNAS Lossiemouth).

Hi Bill,

Funny you should mention that! I've had a couple of RNAS Lossimouth paints on the boil for a while, the T8 just got in the way! Here is a nearly finished WIP:

Airtrooper,
Thanks for contributing to a wonderful freeware project...:wavey:

[DaveWG]

Just been checking out these excellent textures and I've noticed I've missed a part of the gun off the T8 models :blind:
I'll upload a new mdl tomorrow.
Sorry about that.:kilroy:

[spatialpro]

Ooooo, ouch! :eek:

Does that mean the textures have to be redone, or is it just a matter of the textures being mapped to the model?? I'm hoping its the latter!

[DaveWG]

It shouldn't affect the textures.
If you compare the T8 model to the T8c or T7 you'll notice the bulge for the gun is missing, although the barrel is there.

[spatialpro]

Dave,

On a similar note, when I'm "looking back over my shoulder" (sounds like the song!) in the VC I can't seem to see the wing tips. Not sure if this is just the T8 or also other models. Does anyone else experience the same? If so, is this a model issue?

Andy

[spatialpro]

Hi Bill,

Another WIP of a Lossi single seat Hunter. Hope you like it...

Airtrooper: Both shots look simply superb. That will fill the bill quite nicely !!

Bill

[spatialpro]

Glad you like it Bill.

As its looking now it'll just be a pair of white-spined 764 NAS Hunters, one GA11 and PR11.

Here is a shot of the PR11. As you can see they are almost ready to publish.

Hi,

Is the dutch repaint available for download?

Manny thanks,

Not sure about the shot above (?), but N-321 (Dutch) can also be downloaded here:

Hello,

FSX?

[spatialpro]

Yes, FSX. I think Tony painted these when he was Beta testing for Dave Garwood.

I like the look of your repaints, especially the metal finish you've got on the Dutch one! :)

[ZIPPER010]

Hi,

Me too, :applause: can we download your version of the Dutch Hunter?

Send PM the Download link today!

Very badly to see the Trainer window that can solve this problem?

[spatialpro]

zsoltquack,

Can you post a screenshot here, showing the problem you have with the window?

Dimly I see out the window, not so clearly as in the Hunter single-seat version

slightly darker Trainer glass

[spatialpro]

Can you take two screenshots at the same location, heading, weather, season and time of day... just changing the aircraft?

What bloom effects are you using, just the default FSX or something else?

Ok,

The FSX ACC , REX2, but the bloom effects are not using

Hello,

Many many thanks!

but
Texture was not such a folder! :isadizzy: ?????

[DaveWG]

You should have a texture folder :confused:

I forgot to mention here that Bill Mackay requested another pair of 738 NAS single seaters, but this time for RNAS Lossiemouth (i.e. before they moved to RNAS Brawdy). They are now available at FlightSim.com:

and at Classic British Files:

I can't take fancy screenshots like you guys with your blades of grass, idyllic sunsets, singing birds, chirping crickets, and the like ... so while this doesn't merit putting into the formal screenshot thread, I thought I'd put up a few shots of the lovely Garwood Hunter, with one of the great Andy Ford repaints, taken of the splendid UKMIL Lossiemouth. Oh yes, and I swapped the included Tornados with the excellent Mr. Young's AI naval Hunters (having taken but a mere 20 min to learn the basics of AIFP - easy peasy!), and voila ...

81882
Even in the forefront, the AI looks good!

thanks to all the great modders represented here ... all freeware - hard to believe, huh?

cheers,

Hi DL,

Many thanks for your post and screenshots. It is always great to see things getting used. One is never quite sure if people are still using one's downloads after the event.

I'm busy making a bespoke RNAS Lossiemouth for the latter half of 1960s (with bespoke mesh and photoscenery). John kindly made the AI FAA Hunters with this in mind and is now busy on AI S1 and S2 Buccaneers. I also hope to make a few additional AI models to complete the picture at Lossie.

All the best

Andy

My pleasure Andy - yes, the GA, PR, and T RN Hunters get regular floggings/lovings from me - at least on a biweekly basis. With socked in weather, rain, and blustery winds dialed in, I'm sure it represents that area of Scotland fairly well. Though I'm very happy with UKMIL's scenery, the prospect of 60s period scenery instead of the current HAS, etc - just thrills me! Rob Richardson's RNAS Ford is my other favourite RN FAA RNAS - partly because it's "dated" in the 50s. I'm surprised more UK naval nuts haven't posted shots of it - a lovely station. In my FSX world, RNAS maintained its active role (and not a prison, as actually transpired in 1960). It's a nice, period aerodrome for training flights for smaller aircraft, as the runways aren't very long. Again, not super accurate - but gives a bit more longevity into the 60s.

And AI Buccs you say ... now I'm really stoked!! If/when the Flying Stations S2 and Vics get sorted, it'll be even more awesome.

Why I'm so happy with the change to the AI Hunters is now they're all using "NAVY ###" callsigns - just a small, and perhaps not the most accurate touch - but adds to the immersion, as opposed to just "###" . Speaking of AI Buccs, I'm finding AIFP is a pretty straight forward tool to use - if you want some AI tracks built to/from Lossie to other stations, let me know. A formation flight transitting to say, Gibraltar, might be interesting, though I don't know if I'm quite good enough yet for that. But at least, if you want to add some value to your upcoming Lossie pack with a few AI Buccs and such buzzing around, like UKMIL did with the Fernandez Tornado, I'm happy to help.

Anyway - way off topic - long live the naval Hunters - and hopefully other FSX period RNAS stations (Yeovilton?) will emerge from where to accurately fly these lovely beasts - and their AI mates too.

DL

Just my style too! :-)

I'm a big FAA nut and it is retro RNAS that got me into scenery design and the ACG. I have two more retro RNAS in the works... another 1960s and the other is currently 1990s ;-)
