    In Delhi (not the restaurant) the moment and might have a chance to putter a bit more on this. Amazing what work goes into a small detail like the wipers! Paints and all aspects looking very good indeed. Just trying to keep up on my end!

    LOL I thought I was done with the wipers twice, now revisiting them because the wiper control arm is getting distorted. :-)

    Oh yes, mgr, Matt, and Gaucho_59 have been at it hard. Making great progress behind the scenes too.

    Here is some of Gaucho_59's work in the sim.

    You have seen TG's work posted above.

    Thanks Tom for thinking of us while there.

    I'm really looking forward to this finished product. Just a shame that I haven't got the skills of you guys!
    You are all doing a fantastic job with so much commitment!
    I know you are busy on this at the moment, but did you actually get started on the Napier Sabre sounds?

    Thumbs Up, Stuart
    Stuart, you're a sight for sore eyes my friend.

    I'll bet you've got more skills than you're willing to admit... see, now who's putting himself down? Don't.

    And if you insist on remaining on the other side of the counter, consider this; if it weren't for all those enthusiastic aviators such as yourself. there'd be no point in this work in the first place.

    Napier Sabre is yet to be born, but born it will be. Patience.

    Don't worry too much about understanding my posts, I often share the same problem.
    I just put it down to lack of contact where I live (remember Ben Gunn? Treasure island I think, but I don't eat as much cheese...and I never found any treasure either).

    ...and probably even more; 10-12 hours of sound wavs blasting away the last remnants of what I once called a brain...

    Ah yes, those pesky little turbos. Seems you, Tom, TG, and I are still working that line. Sorry I didn't "hear" that turbo whine in the background. Maybe you pushed it to the background too far? LOL

    I can add light maps; just didn't see the need for these aircraft.

    What did you have in mind? Specifically?

    You got that right Amigo, muchos, muchos loco!! But that's why we love you, your the over-ripe banana in the bunch, adding flavour to the recipe that makes this place home.

    Really wish I could contribute, but I can't even launch FS at the moment,let alone anything else, so it's all very much appreciated.

    Just make sure you get there before 1300 on a Saturday or you are likely out of luck. But the rest of the food is equally good.

    Yup Bambi is a great lady! I enjoy lunch there regularly. She really has a great place going on there with the Hangar 1 Cafe.

    Uhhh, slime lights? LOL NOt sure what they are buut if there is some genuine in-use lighting that "needs" to be covered, I can spend a couple of hours making the changes.
    But, remember, all the textures are now in progress for the C-1A so I would rather not confuse the process.

    As for the E-1B, well ... your call.

    in this image the Blueish Green 'bars' on the fuselage/tail/fins are 'slime lights' (also called formation lights, they're an electroluminescent 'gel' if i recall, hence the nickname 'slime lights') they're fitted nearly as standard on all current military aircraft, i was just thinking from a "what if service life had been extended?" kind of thing....

    Lol!

    Well Chief, I can gladly say I didn't need to. I believe you'll find these sounds surprisingly comfortable as long as you remain seated comfortably within the flighdeck area.

    The 'turbo whine' is now audible only within the confines of the YROTAVAL.

    Exit the aircraft with engines running could be regarded as a health risk though.

    Unless of course one is stone deaf, as I nearly am.. I used the exit instead of the YROTAVAL!
