FS 2004
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military skins - World War II
Description: This package contains alternative textures for the VB planes Messerschmitt Me-262 B1/U1. Although it is already a very old model it is still the only model for FS9/CFS2 from a Me-262 B1/U1. As I wasn't very satisfied with the repaints done for this model (sorry ChrisN), I decided to create a new dress for this old lady. The textures are in dtx3 format so they should work both in FS9 as in CFS2.
The included pilot textures are done by Chris "ChrisN" Nölte. I have tried to reach Chris, but did not succeed. However, knowing him, I don't think he will have a problem with the fact these textures are included.
There are several conversions of this model, but to my knowledge the texture layout always remained the same. The model I'm using is the conversion for FS9 by Warrant, which is available here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d=204&id=13337 .
I have included a alternative panel configuration file for this model, which will sharpen the gauges in FS9.
The Messerschmitt Me-262 B1/U1 was a converted two seater trainer, which was equipped with a FuG 218 Neptun radar and Hirschgeweih antenna array. From April 3, 1945 Red-12 was flown by Lt Herbert Altner in the Hamburg region. On the May 6 het flew it to Schleswig-Jagel, where it was handed over to the RAF. The aircraft was taken to England, for flight and radar testing. It was destroyed during a storm at Brize Norton in 1947. The remains were scrapped at Sealand in 1948. Red 12 was one of the 3 Me-262 B1/U1s tested by the RAF.
Credits should go to Graham for his timeless model, Martin Wright for this graphic tools and to Ian Elliot for his pictures of the Flugwerks Me262 replica, which inspired me to do this repaint.
Enjoy,
