Is there any (simple) way to:

(a) Install a propeller into the MAW/ETO Swordfish and/or
(b) Install a gunsight into the GC Swordfish?

Thanks.

Hummm... Alternatively, if the gunsight is part of the cockpit mesh in the MAW Swordfish, have you tried putting the MAW cockpit in the GC aircraft? As they were both made by Mathias, you might find that they do more-or-less fit together tolerably well. Worth trying, I'd imagine.

a) Go tease Nachtpiloten about it, he has the source files.
b) I would really scrap that old GC S-fish of ours, it's so awfully old. Rather replace it with the MAW version as it's the better mesh.

Which is a bit of a pity, because some of the skins for the old one - including some I brought over from CFS2 - were rather nice. Unfortunately the new one never made it to the "exciting new skins" stage, which is also a pity. Was it Alessandro or John who painted the MAW one?

I had already tried the cockpit switch. No go. The VC without the gunsight still appears.
