    I have all that stuff, but only for the E-2A...the ORIGINAL Super Fudd.

    Hawkeye52, that is great to have and maybe someone will jump on that.

    I am willing, when time permits, to do the E1-B, or the C-1, or the S2-F, but I have 3 projects going now so either one will be a while getting started. And, I would still prefer 3-views with cross-sections for a more accurately shaped fuselage.

    C-1 Trader? Be still my heart. I do love COD flights.

    I got a ride in the USS Lexington's C-1 Trader just before they retired it. It's now in the Naval Aviation Museum at Pensacola.

    The puter is still MIA but it's great to see the interest here. Never heard of any E-2s other than Flight Deck' and Rick's so I'll give that other one a try whenever I get up and running again. BTW, thought there was a super sound set that came with an ATR turboprop just before my stuff crashed. I'll try to find that too, and if the author has no objections we may have sounds ready in the wings.


    What are these little dots that drift through my words??? Must be near Christmas.

    Milton, I may have a 3-view with sections for the S2F-3 (S-2E). Gimme a couple of days to look for it.

    THIS is an exciting development!!

    Some nice links, here the tracker is a fantatic aircraft, I have found some other links but they replicate what has already been posted.

    Here is a nice cockpit photo though, I am not sure if the red upholstery is original!

    Milton, you do realize that if you do a C-1 Trader, I'll have to bring my paint brushes out of retirement.

    Before this, I was not familiar with these aircraft. I am studying the differences and hopefully, if we do this project (meaning SOH Team-anyone wanting to contribute), I would like to do the C-1A, the S2F-3, and E1-B, simple variants, but not all. It's more complicated and too much like a career to do all of them. Major differences are the fuselage length, the tail, wing tips, and belly bulge, I think.

    I found the drawings for the S2F-3 but I see you already have some. I have similar drawings for the Willie Fudd and I have attached a couple of preview scans so you can see if they are what you need. The drawing itself is 14" x 18½". - H52

    Explain This Picture ???

    Appears to be landing configuration but why are all the radio/radar "appendages" extended? Is this just for a photo shoot to show its stuff?

    Some nice close up shots, looks like a conversion of tracer to trader.
