After getting the sad news of Ickie's passing following his lack of posts here I'm almost afraid to ask, but...
Has anybody had recent contact with forum member Helldiver? No recent posts since June of last year, if I read his profile right.

That's what I say fella's !
Some people were just plain rude/mean to Helldiver
I hope he is still with us.
WHOHO, looking forward to this one!
You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.
For MFS paints go to flightsim.to
I've pmed Helldiver with a link to this thread. I hope he gets to see it

Very good news. Having just re-discovered the Vertigo SBD Dauntless just last week and what fun it is to fly, I thought that a Helldiver would be a great aircraft to accompany it, except that there wasn't one for FSX. Now there's one on its way!

Wow! That looks very promising! I'm in for it.

It is great to see a Helldiver in development for FSX! I am curious however about why there is a shaded line/ridge on the fuselage, running below the port-side cockpit section, as well as what looks to be a shorter ridge around the same area on the starboard-side(?).
Hi John,
There isn't a ridge there, it's just the render engine picking up the edge of the internal cockpit wall - doesn'r show in the sim.
I hope it'll join the Javelin on my shopping list. Great choice of subject, A.H.
Good to know, Bazz, thank you! I have been around a few different Helldiver restorations (though a -5, -3 and -1A), so this will be a definite must have. Although for many, many years now, there has only been the one airworthy/flying Helldiver (the SB2C-5 operated by the Commemorative Air Force), there are three more Helldiver restorations, in advanced state, which be airworthy/flown when completed - an SB2C-5 owned/under restoration by Fagen Fighters, a SB2C-1A owned by Jim Slattery/under restoration by Vulture's Row Aviation, and a SB2C-3 owned/under restoration by the Yanks Air Museum. Very likely the first of the current restorations to fly will be the Jim Slattery SB2C-1A (unique for its level of absolute authenticity in restoration, and for all of the mixture of early and post-production mod items that make it quite different to the later production variants).
I've always resisted doing an SBC2 as I believed them to be a little ugly and ungainly. However since getting into this thing it has really grown on me. I started the Monogram kit a few years back and never finished it for simiar reasons. Maybe I will finish it now! The early Monogram is a fine kit in 1/48. I had a couple of original early kits and one was a builder rather than a keeper so I started to build it up.
On a technical note, the version we are doing is the early -4 without radar.
Please no one yell at me,but any chance this will be tacpac'd? Or could be by a third party? And,as an after thought,are there any tacpac'd WWII aircraft or weapons yet?
personally I look forward just to flying it. I love your F3F and Electra - can't wait to see this big attack aircraft in FSX..
we've enough old straight deck carriers now to land it on I think
This is great news, but I'm a little skeptical about the delivery date in light of the fact that other announced products have yet to be released.
Not to worry, however. I will definitely buy it and fly it when it does come out.Slated to fly this March
