John,

Looking good!

Desperate days, May 1940 ...

[UncleTgt]

Where are the British fighters!

[UncleTgt]

Oops, a little high that time...

John,

Very nice! I didn't know you were going to throw in a Vichy version...

[Rami]

John,

Very nice work indeed!

John,

Very nice! I didn't know you were going to throw in a Vichy version...

What made you think I only do one?

here's a circa SEP'40 vichy skin for the what-if carrier battles, or Gibraltar raids...

John,

Many thanks for your efforts to overhaul this model at my request...I really appreciate your efforts as a partner, painter, tweaker, and for putting up with my incessant requests. I couldn't do this without you, Kevin, and Ian.

And Baldy, it's also been a pleasure to give many of your models their rightful place in the sun.

Hi Guys,

Nice Work.

Happy New Year.

P.S. I won't mention the Ashes.

Maybe if somebody had mentioned to the England squad that they'd be playing for The Ashes before they flew out, they might not have treated it as so much of a beer drinking holiday & played some decent cricket instead...

Great work guys, Thank you.

Very nice aircraft UT.

Just an FYI......Dp is pointing to "mount.1=Bombe_200KG, 1, -1" but the addon weapons file is "wep_PAH250lbs". Also the Dp doesn't contain the pylon file.

I'm afraid I'm sort of like Odd Ball in Kelly's Hero's....to paraphrase...."I only fly 'em man, I don't know what makes 'em work.

Worthless, taken from the readme ...

" Alain Breton's French bombs, from the Bloch 200
http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d=151&id=13858 "

This will get you the Bombe_200KG (which is bigger than 250lbs )

Not sure what you mean about the pylon, the centreline bomb was held semi-recessed under the fuselage & slung out past the prop disk by an SBD style cradle (which is modelled but not animated)?

Hertzie asked me to amend the mdl file to include a pilot - this upload mdl has pilot plus two bmps to go in each texture folder

LN401 + pilot.zip

I've got to do things this way because my email is temperamental with attachments
