    Here's some recent updates on the wings. Ailerons were a little difficult to align since they were mismatched.

    Been away for awhile, just getting caught up..... Your Progress is Mind-Blowing! I've heard the term Rivet counter...but now the term "Stitch" counter has been created. The Above pictures look like photographs of fabric work. Gorgeous!

    Thanks guys! There's a couple options I've seen when it comes to Stearman wing tanks. Instead of stitches, I will change to round bumps. Some Stearmans have exposed tanks and some are covered. On the NASA Stearman I will go with the exposed tank.

    apparently it's an owner option that involves airworthiness inspections...the FAA wants to inspect the covered tanks every year but only inspect the uncovered 'painted' tanks every other year..so it's cheaper to leave them uncovered.

    the aircraft owner then has to decide if the 'authenticity' of a covered tank is worth that extra cost and down time.

    If I ever had a wish for free, maybe a repaint of the legendary Stearman from the movie "Capricorn One" may come true?

    Best regards, Manfred.

    I'm not even going to ask if you would possibly consider porting this to X-Plane 11. I know all too well how much effort goes into making it just for MSFS based sims. But Jesus thats purdy. My Uncle next to his at the beginning of WWII.

    Hi Ted,

    I'll have to check my version of N56059 (below) ........ hopefully the added spec/bump wing details of your 'Mail' livery (above) will be transferrable to it as well ?



    Thank-you, for both of these beauties.
    Cheers, MZee ...

    The N56059 bird has an all metal fuselage so it will need an update. Same for the NASA bird partial metal fuselage. Soon as I'm finished with the Howard 500, those will be next.

    As for those other birds above they are different models, I only have the demo version to work with.

    For some reason, this thread has become very quiet.

    Hoping Ted's repaints haven't been shelved.
