This is my favorite biplane fighter, and one of the most flown in my FSX hangar, the Gloster Gladiator by FSAddon.

[huub vink]

Keep them coming guys, they are all beautiful. The FCS Hawker Fury is really stunning, but as it is too complicated for me to repaint it, it is one I most definitely like, but not my favourite. The Gladiator was on my list as well, but somehow it isn't as sturdy as the He51. (BTW I love warbirds)

And I consider myself really lucky that Craig Richardson was willing o do this model.

Cheers,
Huub

A couple more shots of the FCS Hawker Fury...which I am now much more prone to fly, as there is one in England now that is flying (the only original example in the world flying). I'm hoping it is displayed at some UK airshows this summer.

That's my favourite paint too John. It'd be nice to have one of the flying example here in the UK but without a paint kit.. it's too much for me! Check out the Kestrel soundset I posted a link to by Gary Jones. It makes that old girl even better:encouragement:

Aircraft Factory Avro 504 and in the background.. the JF Sopwith Pup. It has to be said I don't fly either much but that's a consequence of having a hangar bulging at the seams as much as anything else!

Yep, I love that soundset, and used to use it with the Ted Cook Hawker biplanes in FS2004 as well. I also use his wonderful Rolls Royce Falcon, Bristol Mercury, and Bristol Pegasus engine soundsets for the appropriate types.

Speaking of which, would you, Dave, or anyone else, happen to know where one could still get the "early Merlin soundet" that used to be on Britsim? I forget who did that soundset, but I loved it and used to use with the Hurricane models.

I'll drop Gary an email John.. it may have been one of his. I still have a few soundsets lurking on a (now) external drive so I'll take a look. When Gary read about the FCS Fury.. he had a fiddle with the original sounds he'd done for Ted (he's never happy!!) and sent the ones in the link above. It has to be said, I was more than happy with his v1 set but these are better still IMHO. I know Gary suffered a HD failure and lost much of his source files so when Britsim went down.. this added to his loss. I'll drop him a line anyway;)
ATB
DaveB:)

[DaveB]

John..

I've heard back from Gary.. the early Merlin set was his at Britsim. While he's lost those files.. he still has his original zips but none seem to match 'Early Merlin'. He advised that he'd also uploaded a few files to Avsim and I've looked there but can only see sounds by Des Braban. I've got one more HD I can try but doors are closing I'm afraid.

EDIT: Sri John.. I can't see it on the last HD either:(

Not seen one for BSAJ Dave.. it'd be on my HD if I had. Don't have PSP either:(

ATB
DaveB:)

[huub vink]

Same here Dave, I haven't seen G-BSAJ. The model is difficult to repaint as it has separate textures for the external model as seen from the VC. The wings are mirrored and to enable tepainters to add registration codes there is a section on the wings which has a separate texture and on top of that there is a strange distortion in the aft part of the fuselage.

I really don't want to discourage you, but this limits the possibilities to repaint this model.

Good luck,
Huub

[DaveB]

That's a shame Huub. I've seen Anna Walker fly AJ almost as many times as I've been to Duxford airshows (and that's a LOT). We'll have to make do with JT's paint and use our imagination:very_drunk:

In the early days experimenting with Dx10 (way before Steve's Fixer) this Ansaldo by Manuele was one of the very few Fs9 aircraft that showed full textures, vc and exterior, unlike most that were just white. It's a great looking model:engel016:

I second Huubs remark, John. May I ask what scenery that is?

The Bulldog in the screenshot is the old Alphasim one.

Are you sure of that? Mine is the ALPHA one (I've checked - bristol_bulldog_iia.zip (http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?do=copyright&fid=176829) at FlightSim) but it's definitely not the same. Not just the markings, but tailwheel/skid, lights on the upper wing . . . Maybe mine is a more recent version? It includes Spanish Republican markings as well as RAF.

Always gives me a buzz to see Craig and I's Camel and Pup getting some love.

I always liked Stewart Greens FS9 Spad 7 so I was delighted when Vertigo Studios brought out their Native FSX model. I find the flight model a bit tricky if I'm honest (its very twitchy on the elevator and nose heavy rather than tail heavy which I thought most planes of this era where... but for all I know that may be right) but It looks so nice I don't worry about that... I just crash a lot

I wasn't that keen on the metal textures for the Camel release version 2 so when we where working on the Pup I made some new ones that I never got round to uploading... here in DX10 mode

Huub used these to create his own version below. Personally I like both. I've got mine installed on some of the bare metal Camels and Huub's on some of the others. Maybe we can make these available to you other biplane fans in due course.

Hi Dave,

What I tried to say was that the Bulldog in your screenshot was the old Alpasim one. The one in my screenshot is the Aeroplane Heaven one, however that screenshot was taken in FS2004 (Silver Wings) as I'm not sure the Aeroplane Heaven Bulldog will work in FSX.

I think I will just give the AH Bulldog a try in FSX and see how it works.

Cheers,
Huub

Sorry - my mistake. I thought you meant the one in your screenshot was the Alphasim one!

As for Rise of Flight, I've crashed pretty often too, but I find the Sopwith Pup and Triplane to be the easiest to get back down safely again.

MDIVey,

In Regards to the Spad VII Flight Model;

YES it is nose heavy, when loaded with both the Vickers, and extra Lewis Machine Gun, and ammunition. Per the manual, it is much more forgiving when the Lewis Gun, and it's ammo contents aren't loaded.

Most Spad VII aircraft, of course, did not carry this optional load anyway.
