SOH P-61 project

[warchild]

Make an FSX native model of a P-61?? I've had this hankering to do one for a couple years now, and its time one was done.. its not like its going to be yet another p-61.. There havent been any. Yes, I know it looks like a B-25 with an identity complex, but all you gotta do is watch the training vids for this thing and you'll see its far far from a B-25 and handles more like a small fighter..
So PLEASE?????

Always loved the big twin-boomed fork-tailed Northrop beastie. What a fantastic aeroplane. Lots of interesting stuff ahead of it's time, like those spoilers for roll control. Love to have one of those to zoom around in FS land.

Well maybe we need to get the community's freeware designers together... as I have one.


External mesh complete. Most external animations completed.

Needs VC internals and texturting.


Given to me by a well known designer who wanted to help with a SOH fund drive... so donationware is the name of the game.

If any aircraft developer (freeware or otherwise) can respect that aspect of the release.... I would love to work with them to see this aircraft make it into FSX.. and to help SOH to boot!

Can you send me the external mesh?? i dont care if its painted or not or even animated or not.. i can get started on the flight model with it and we can put the baby together..

PS.. doesnt need a panel either.. i use a custom set of gauges while developing..

How wild it would be if MAAm did one along with the actual bird being restored?? How much money could they make to add to the resto? I bet a bunch.....come on MAAM!!!

Pam, you may have started something wonderful here. I have a P-61 pilot's manual if you need data...

::LOL:; gthat WOULD be cool.. but they've got a lot of irons in the fire in more places than FSX..
No worries.. If crashaz agrees to work with me, i wont let you down.. I'll make it fly the absolute best that i can..

PM sent to ya warchild!

Lets see if we can get this baby off the ground.

[warchild]

Oh yeah
Ya know, i'm no expert on the history of this bird, but i cant help but feel it would have been perfect flying alongside the A-26's in Beliz and Vietnam, and would make a perfect complement to miltons A-26 in FSX..

Anyway.. Its showtime We got rock n roll..

[PRB]

Showtime. Rock-n-roll. Light the tires and kick the fires. I'm scanning in pages from my P-61 book. Also have Americas Hundred Thousand, a great book with tons of good data on US fighters, including performance data.
