Milton,

Just saw your pictures and noted the placement of the damper on the left horizontal stab. It should be further outboard at the juncture of the blue and green mapped areas. If it's not fixable, no harm done. Thought I'd mention it. Looking forward to this one also!

Hey Dave :-)

Thanks for that heads-up. I forgot to move it for the short hstab. Not a problem.

[Milton Shupe]

Beautiful Beautiful work!!!

Thanks TG ... I do hope she will satisfy the S2F-1 needs. :-)

Milton,you are relentless!
Excellent!!!

Well, a man has to do something in retirement. :-)

I remain in awe of anyone who can model an airplane for FS.

all the detail that goes into the work, and then there's the guys who do the flight dynamics

awesome job, guys!

There are a lot of details but if the RW versions weren't so complicated, this would be easier. :-)

Dave, just a followup here. You were more than right. I totally blew the htail thinking that the C1A had the short tail, I just merged it in to this model. Wrong! It turned out to be the longer tail it replaced. LOL So, your "heads-up" drew me to this discovery and now we have a proper short tail in place with the damper where it should be. Thank you.

Glad to help!

Yea! Finally completed mapping of 631 parts. Now a couple minor adjustments before she's off to the paint shop.

What a beauty!

May be dumb question but will ask anyway - beta testers needed?

The major differences here are the model changes, mapping and textures. I'll see if we can arrange something once the textures are available. Since the textures and paint kit are from scratch, it will be a while, the virtue of patience should be well exercised.

[SSI01]

I am the Jack LaLanne of patience, I've had mine so exercised I look like Schwarzenegger! Not a problem, though.

LOL Well, I just sent the last of the changes to the S2F-1 to the paint shop. So now officially, I am done with the -1 until Duckie finds the secret issues I accidently left throughout the models and mapping. :-)

EDIT: Before you ask; I will await Duckie's close inspection of all the work before I do the CP-121 variant. Once I get the "all clear", I will do that one.

Exciting! Thanks a million, even more!
