Nice, but still none are available for downloading.

Keep the P-40s coming, they're great to look at.

Too bad no P-40Es though.

You are going to be pretty busy to deliver on that. There are some paints going back to the first of the month (like the Hind in post #193) that has yet to see the light of day. Can't count how many I'm waiting for. Good luck.

Im moving onto the the jungle and home front P40s now

Got it thanks, I have that one but had not reinstalled it after major rebuild of FSX some time ago. Peculiar how it has an Abacus moniker on the install icon but is marketed as FCS, which I guess it is. Agree re the details. My only gripe if I recall was if you zoomed back a little in VC view the model stopped aft of the seat back. Now back and installed awaiting the RAAF paint.

To all the others, yep the FR P-40 is on my new year wish list but I have so many others to catch up on and at the moment so little time it may have to wait. But a quick look confirms that it has that FR stamp of precision and detail all over.

Have a good new year!
