    Tweaking an old Favorite

    As a way of keeping myself busy, I've been tweaking/upgrading some distant favorites of mine. Currently the Yak-23 is being reworked. Always liked this jet.

    A shine would look great on this one but as with any of Ito Sans aircraft, an alpha simply makes the aircraft transparent.

    The VC is coming along, still a fair amount of work before it's completed.

    Very nice! The Yak has always looked to me like some engineers simply stuck wings and stabilizers directly onto a hobby model rocket engine (zoom! ) What kind of reworks are you contemplating?

    Just what I'm showing in the screenshots. . .new panel lines and rivets on the exterior and populating the VC with avionics (art) that gives the "appearance" of a functioning cockpit. If I had the expertise I would convert it to Native FSX but that is beyond the small amount of usable gray matter I still posses.
