Hello HouseHobbit,
I also have been involved with the various versions of CFS since very near the beginning.
CFS was the first Combat simulator that I found that had enough detail in the game for good suspension of disbelief in my opinion. The problem for me was that many of the aircraft available when I started were either very poor in graphics or very poor in flight modelling. I thought I could do better and started first with flight modelling. After a while, I wanted to prove that a good model could be built with the most common tools and haven't stopped yet. Pity you do not fly CFS any more. I think you would enjoy some of the aeroplanes I have built.
Hopefully this is not too far off topic for this thread, but since we are discussing P-40s, I have what I believe to be a couple pretty good one in the CFS1 downloads area. My P-40E was extensively revised recently and will likely be the pattern for a few later versions (as soon as I finish fixing a 0.07 foot Thrust Line discrepancy.

This is a small discussion about my CW-21B along with a couple screenshots here"

The thread also explains why the CW-21B is in the process of a major rework.
There are quire a few other Pacific Theater aircraft I have built or am currently building but of course they are all for the original Combat Flight Simulator.
