    F-35 Lightning II project update

    A very rainy evening has finally given me the time (and will) I needed to complete the remake of the MFD, which was the major oustanding item in my F-35 to-do list. The cockpit now has all the planned functions - while are fewer than the ones of the real F-35, they should be good enough for most users.
    So the package is almost complete, meaning it needs some very minor debugging and the external model need to be checked against the recently released pictures of AF-1 and AF-2.
    Then I need to write the checklists and the manuals and then it is ready.
    The major delay will probably come from the fact that I am moving to a new home during the next couple of weeks... so I really can't tell when I will be able to release it. But I hope that the pictures above show that the project is in a very good shape and VERY close to completion.

    By the way,the Garibaldi STOVL carrier is visiting to my hometown - the fact that I'm seeing it every day driving to my workplace, is revamping my intest in making the F-35B, too. The conversion is not easy as it may seem - but I'll probably give it a try.

    Some additional details can be found on my blog indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com

    The F-35 looks very good! Can hardly wait to put some Norwegian roundels on her

    How has you solved the helmet display? I did some testing back in the days of the IRIS F-35 for FS9 and made the HUD gauge a 2d sub panel which I could bring up on top of the VC, worked very good with track ir.

    Best regards

    Very nice work!

    Some intricate detail you have been able to fit in there.

    Love the panel with the new single piece giant screen.

    Moving is real work esprcially if you've collected tons of stuff. Take your time. Get that move done. Have a party.

    The F-35 will get here soon enough. Must be nice to have a carrier in your neighborhood.

    As someone that doesn't care for the F-35 styling, I am liking your project more and more, great textures.
