Looks like a really interesting aircraft, especially the green house canopy!

This one is a lot of fun. Unique and lots of animations. Three different models: bomber, tanker and recon.

I think they did a great job of integrating the jet engine - sounds and noticeable change in thrust and pitch when engaged. I've had several flights starting with radials only, then igniting the jet engine in flight.

Interesting plane! Great that Virtavia is doing a lesser known plane! It could however do with a new paintjob to get rid of the clean look! Flies like a swan.

The VC needs to be scuffed up as well. Cockpit lighting works well, but that all black panel... against the black scenery... took me a while to adjust.

Agreed. Needs some dirtying up. The paintkit is available here: http://www.virtavia.com/Freeware/index.php?dir=/Paint Kits

I've got to figure out a better launch assistance entry. The plane comes loose before the throttle is spooled up.

Already downloaded! Now where are some decent profiles for this one?

I noticed the launch issue just as we were releasing it, but it was too late to get the change incorporated.

Try using these numbers to see if the cat holds. They need to be just in the right spot especially if the carrier is moving.

[launch_assistance]
launch_bar_pivot = 9.8, 0, -4.5
launch_bar_lug = 12.6, 0, -7.6

BTW,
Here's a little secret. I enabled water injection. It will add a little boost to horse power and airspeed.
All you have to do to get it to work is assign a couple of key strokes under Settings - Controls / Buttons - Keys / Engines / War Emergency Power. I have been using W+E. You can assign any keys of your choosing.

That's it! Works great now!

Comments please! This is a great plane to repaint.



Cees

Ps. I'd like to present bigger pictures but there's something with Photobucket..

 

[Cees Donker]

Allright gentlemen, who is willing to test this one and comment on it?



Cees

 

[WarHorse47]

Thanks, Cees. Nice job. Works for me. Something a little scruffy and worn.

 

[Cees Donker]

Thanks WH! Here's another one.





And a picture I couldn't post earlier.....

 

[Cees Donker]

Here's a texture that came with the package. I made it more dirty, added the yellow warning arrow and made the spinners less red. The paintkit is a joy to work with!

Great looking paints. Keep up the good work. I was thinking about this model because it's so different, but it looks a little FS9'ish. Maybe wait for a sale sometime.
