The animations and interior modeling must have taken some time to complete.

They did ! And I still have some work fine tuning the animations, and completing the VC. The flaps in particular are giving me a hard time, as on my Late 298 as a matter of fact : As they are not simple animation rotating around an axis, have to use the "l_flap_key" and "r_flap_key", allowing the use of keyframe complex animations. But for some reason they stubornly refuse to be taken into account when compiling the model, and most of the time only the left flap works...

I downloaded yesterday some Sunderland 3-views, to see how far the model would be from the Empire... Not so close in fact...
Another one I am considering is the French LeO H470

Will CFS2 recognize these animations? Can you try a .mdl in FS 2004?
Just thinking...

This is one of my favorite French WW2 Seaplanes. I also love it's bigger brother, the Lioré et Olivier LeO H-246, a very beautiful aircraft.

Another one I've been looking at, Pepe...
Do you know that it's a Vichy french LeO 246 who first reported sighting the Pedestal convoy after it left Gibraltar, therefore giving it away to Axis ? Not such a glorious feat for French, but you know me... Takes me back to Malta again...

Please remember, it was after Mers el Kebir... I prefer Free France and de Gaulle, but Vichy had some reason to be ressentful with the British after the attack against the fleet! I never understand why Hitler didn't capitalized it to get France back to combat aside Germany. He could concentrate efforts to reconstruct the ships fastly and to get the French fleet, air force and army at his side to invade Britain in 1941 and to avance against the Suez Channel and the Saudi and Iraqi oil reserves. After that, he could command a European Crusade against Communism. Fortunetaly for us, his prejudices were stronger than his reason.

But we must admit that the LeO 246 was a fine bird...
