Thanks Martin! I have been following the development in the CFS2 forums and was already hoping for a FS9 version
Cheers,
Huub
Bravo Martin! A marvelous effort! Congratulations!
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military - Props
Description: I don't introduce the most beautiful and successful British aeroplane from World War One, but the Royal Aircraft Factory Reconnaissance Experimental 8 became a legend with all the reliable service she provided from the second part of 1916 to the end of the war as a reconnaissance, bomber and ground attack plane.
This model evocates a mid production aeroplane, with Daimler-type cowlings, steel undercarriage with wooden fairings, and Constantinescu synchronizing system for the Vickers gun. The panel instruments' disposition represents one of numerous possibilities.
The model, made originaly for CFS2, is from Martin Klein, the crew is a mix of Martin Wright's RAF Pilot and Wolfi's Japanese pilot.
The gauge and 2D panel are from Martin Klein.
The Flight Dynamics are from Aer DaddyO and were modified to fit this model by Stephan Scholz, who kindly found answers to my capricious asks, great thanks Stephan.
The sounds were found in an Aerocrate model, and are from LuftwaffeOberst and Gary Aumaugher.
The livery is from Martin Klein and depicts a plane from 3 AFC, flown by Nigel Love as Pilot and M. Shelley as observer.
Many thanks to Stephan Scholz, Kevin Driver "KDriver", Michael Lang "Ravenna", "Wolfebee89", John P Fortin "Blood_Hawk23", Gary Aumaugher, "LuftwaffeOberst", Martin Wright, Wolfi and all the SOH forum members for their help and support.
Thanks to Paul R. Hare for his "RAF Re8 at War" Windsock datafile.
Great thanks to Sir Peter Jackson, the TVAL and Wingnut Wings teams for the plethoric documentation on the Re8 found on their website.
So, I hope you'll enjoy it

Many thanks for your support
Martin
So many details, made with love!
Thank you so much for making this bird although is has never been a star , needing more of the rare ones.
Just beautiful! Many thanks.
Do not fear the enemy, for they can take only your life. Fear the media far more, for they will destroy your honour.

Thanks for the comments, and for the nice picts, I'm happy you enjoy
Martin
Martin,
You succeeded in making a beautiful model from a very ugly plane .
Cheers,
Huub
Thanks for the nice comments
I'm on the way to update the model, now the light switch box switches each relevant light
I would enjoy to have the engine cowlings hidden with a key, I tested spoilerwell animation, but the part is normally hidden, an idea on an animation to use for the engine cowling to be normally shown would be welcome
Cheers
Martin
that last upgrade is done, the engine shows now with spoiler key ":"
So, now how can I update the FS2004 library model?
Best regards
Martin
Thanks Martin! You do have a PM (but you already know )

Huub
Hi Martin,
Thanks for the latest improvements to your beautiful model.
Your update was missing a picture, so I edited your original upload by inserting the new aircraft files and adding your latest text to the introductory blurb. I hope that's OK.
Cheers,
Kevin
Wonderfull Kevin, many thanks
Cheers

Martin has released the CFS2 version which has another six RFC and AFC liveries which should work with FS2004.
Kevin
Many thanks Kevin
Yes, six more liveries are available in the CFS2 pack, and here is the aircraft.cfg to use it in FS9:Aircraft.zip
There is not still Belgian version, that would need a model with earlier engine cowlings, but why not later
Hope you'll enjoy, cheers
Martin
