    Please do!

    By all means. You read my mind. I was looking for one in the archives over the week-end. I assumed it already existed. No joy. Couldn't find one.

    Hi All,
    Okay, okay, you talked me into it. A little clean up and I'll have it available. I have to do a set of damage textures and that's it.
    Thanks for the support for my meager offerings.

    Hi All,

    Just uploaded the F-5. Should be available soon. Take a few minutes to read about the finding of the"Lady Lex" and Noel Gayler. Interesting on both counts.

    Remember this texture is for The B24 Guys OH F4F-3 Wildcat.

    Thanks and have fun with this one,

    Bob

    A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 2 Skins - American

    Description: Hi All,

    This is my rendition of the F4F-3 Wildcat flown by then Lt. Noel Gayler. He was a member of VF-3 and served aboard the USS Lexington, CV-2. The "Lady Lex" was found on March 4, 2018 and a picture of the F-5 was included. Lt. Gayler served with distinction throughout the war and his career, retiring as an Admiral.

    This texture is for The B24 Guys OH F4F-3 Wildcat.

    I also included a set of Kelticheart's props.

    Thanks,

    Bob

    Great work Bob. There can't be too many repaints referencing a current photo of the original.

    Hello Bub, B24Guy,

    That is a very pretty Wildcat.
