Cleaning out the Garage

Hi All,

I've been "cleaning out the garage" and you'll never know what you may find. Here's a P-40F-5-CU from the Torch Landing, 33rd FG as flown off the USS Chenango. Also, two P-39's. One is "Nips Nemisis II", flown by Lt. Don McGee and "Miss Helen" flown by Lt. George Welsh. The P-40F is for K Malinowski's and the P-39's are for the B24 Guy's OH. I also have a bunch of VB Planes P-51 skins and who knows what else. If anyone wants these, I'll upload them.
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks Guys,
I appreciate the "pat on the back", or is it a "kick in the ###". I'll package them up and get them uploaded. I also found another P-39J. Flown by Lt, Leslie Spoonts, 57th FS, 54th FG, Kodiak, Alaska, 6-10/42. I may have one more P-39, I'll throw that one in also.

Hi All,

Just uploaded the P-40F textures for the KM_P-40F_V1 by K. Malinowski. I'll get the P-39's packaged and uploaded soon.

Thanks,

Hi all,

After I finish with the VB Planes textures, I found three of AirBudda's planes. A F4U Corsair, P-51D and a P-47 Bubble top. I don't know If I can upload those. Rami will have to determine if thats a problem or not. There's a ton of skins for M. Taccoli's F-80 along with TR's F-86 series. Some F-84 skins and some stuff I haven't looked at yet. Here's a few WWI skins for the Aerocrate models. The Albatross DVa, old paint job and new, Fokker Dr1 and the Sopwith Camel. They're from the aircraft flown at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome each weekend.

Still cleaning,

Bob

Bub,

If the quality is anything like your first skin, these will all be welcome additions!
 
Hi All,

Thanks guys. As I stated in the ReadMe, the base texture was done by someone a long time ago. Its been in the garage for years. I just cleaned it up and added some new "decals."

Rami,

Give me some advice as to what to do with the AirBudda aircraft. If they can be uploaded or not.

I'm packaging up the P-39's and will have them up soon. Then what VB Planes and the Old Rinebeck aircraft. After that, who knows whats lurking in the dark recesses of the "garage."

Thanks again,

Bob
 
Rami,

I think these aircraft are a no go. I found a readme and it seems to be pretty specific. I attached the readme and a snap of the P-47. You make the determination. I still think they should be uploaded since they are from 2000 and show how far we've come. Something to be preserved.

Thanks,

Bob

Bub,

Given the age and the circumstances, I will allow this to be uploaded for preservation. Please make sure, however, that the readme is included. That is essential.
 
Rami,

Thank you for your consideration in this matter. I've found the original zip files for the P-47 and the P-51, the other P-51 is a repaint. Still searching for the F4U zip file. I'll package these up and get them to you for disposition.

Thanks,

Bob
