FS2004/FSX Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star Package.

The first operational jet fighter of the USAAF, the Lockheed P-80/F-80 series was essentially a P-51 Mustang with a jet engine. Utilizing the typical wing, fuselage, and empennage of the piston engine era, the F-80's dimensions and armament were nearly identical to the Mustang. However, the performance was far greater once the type came into its own. Several examples were delivered for evaluation prior to war's end, but the initial plans for 5,000 were abandoned after VJ-Day. The type saw service in Korea, and was the basis for the outstanding T-33 trainer. Ex FS9 payware from Alpha Simulations. Works in both FS9 and FSX. Small tweaks for FSX compatibility by Chris Evans. Thank you to the good people at Alpha Simulations for donating this model as freeware.

Some lovely stuff there, I do like the RF-84 a lot, and of course always nice to see any breed of Canberra for FS. I never had the alpha B-57B but will have to download that for a spin. Very good of Alpha to do that release to the public.
