What flavour is it?

[Frosty]

What flavour is it?

Strawberry, Clive! All creatures that live off seafood and rotten scrap found on the beach develop a wonderful, delicious, sweet strawberry taste. :biggrin-new:

But really, determine the bird and you got your, uhm, bird.

[Shessi]

Clive,
What flavour do you think it is?!

Corse it's bleedin' seabird flavour.......;)

Cheers

[Bravo/4]

No, and it's not a Gannet on a stick either!:mixed-smiley-010:

[sdsbolt]

:dizzy: ok , it was a bad setup. Its a Fulmar.

[popsaka]

Its a bird, its a plane, cripes, its a beauty... (:applause:)

__and doubtless no longer sporting a non-retractable arresting hook! :triumphant:

[HouseHobbit]

Too Cool!!
:applause: :applause: :applause:

[grizzly50]

Well, all right. Another good one. :D

Keep 'em comin'.

[gecko]

A new Fulmar! Excellent!

[Frosty]

:dizzy: ok , it was a bad setup... Not at all, lol! It just shows that this lot is better at aircraft spotting than recognizing birds (the winged kind, that is). Or that they have a soft spot for albatrosses...

[sdsbolt]

It's a conversion of David Molyneaux's FS9 model. AFAIK, we only have an AI version.

[Led Zeppelin]

A flyable Fulmar will be most welcome!! Malta 1940-1941.:applause:

[Pat Pattle]

Nice! :) :)

[hairyspin]

Good show Steve, another of the rarer types for CFS3! :applause: I've looked at the Mk.I at FAA Museum Yeovilton a couple of times: is this to be a Mk.I or Mk.II?

[sdsbolt]

is this to be a Mk.I or Mk.II?

I think I can get away with both mk's with only small changes AFAIKT??

[gecko]

According to the wiki page it had a new engine and new prop plus tropical equipment and apparently there was a night fighter version which sounds rather interesting.

Got the main external model sorted out

[hairyspin]

That's the Mk.II I think, and I like the prop_slow texture! :applause:

[sdsbolt]

I like the prop_slow texture!

thanx but thats the cfs3 stock prop

[Pat Pattle]

I like the prop_slow texture!

thanx but thats the cfs3 stock prop

Well it does looks better for some reason, I thought it was a new texture!
Great looking model, any chance of a new 'pit, pretty please?? :)

[Cuttles]

Wow!.............

multi-lod's about done :tommygun2:

[hairyspin]

Impressively quick work Steve! You've done this before, surely?

[sdsbolt]

Impressively quick work Steve! You've done this before, surely?

modeling a bit slower these days but still able to get a vc in by stealing parts from several Brit models we have about.

[Led Zeppelin]

Thanks for the update.

[Cuttles]

Very Interesting.

[popsaka]

The VC looks really great ...regardless of what damp dark alley some pieces were purloined :monkies:

BTW, did any of the Fulmars sport cannons? (...tho' 8 .303's ain't nuttin' ta sneeze at)

[gecko]

Great work!

[sixstrings5859]

Looking good!!!:applause:

[grizzly50]

:bump:

:D

[Bravo/4]

This one is finished apart from a few little bits Rob has to do AFAIK

[Pat Pattle]

That's great news!

[Led Zeppelin]

Thanks! :jump:

[gecko]

How's this one coming?

[Bravo/4]

Funny you should ask? Soon!:biggrin-new:

[Bravo/4]

A few shots to keep you going in the meantime!

[gecko]

Beautiful John! Looking forward to it! Will there be one with the 4x .50 cals? At any rate, this will be a rather unique one to fly. I can't think of any recent combat sim that has one.

[sdsbolt]

Will there be one with the 4x .50 cals?

yup...sent one to Rob

[Pat Pattle]

Looking great! Can't wait for this one :0)

[BorekS]

looks great! :encouragement:

[htpcorsica]

Very life like cockpit brilliant.

[gosd]

This will be a great addon. Bravo.:encouragement:

[sdsbolt]

I can't think of any recent combat sim that has one.

[sixstrings5859]

Fantastic work !! Thanks :applause: !!!!
