VN_Catalina MkI

[baldy]

Hi

This is my first upload for quite sometime, what with the performances I've had with Windows 7, then 10 and back to 7 - together with the fact that FSDSv2 doesn't work in 7.

I've got FSDS restarted by using virtual Windows XP and am happy to be able to upload a Catalina MkI of 205 Sqn RAF out of RAF Seletar, Singapore in mid-1941. This not an original work but a re-jigging of the VN_PBY-5A recently updated and re-issued by Allen So my thanks to him and Uncle Tgt for his RAAF skin which I tampered with.

Anyway - here it is -

Hi Kelti

thanks for the encouragement - I'm looking to tidy up some of my old stuff - it's good to find a renewed interest in the good old game

Nice to have more options when it comes to PBYs!

Has anyone ever done the skin of the RAF's first Cat?

I think Uncle Tgt is the man to ask, he's already done some skins for Shessi's early PBY ( Alpha Pby ). The VN_PBY would need a lot of rebuilding before it look like that -removeing blisters - patching skin etc

Cheers
