Ladies and Gentlemen: The SOH P-61 "Alpha Zero"

Yea, this is going to be another jewel for Milton and his team. Also, this is the FS9 airframe right now. Unless something has changed, the original plan was to produce the FS9 version first and then Milton already has someone signed up to take the model and move it into the FSX world. So we're still looking at a fair amount of time before we actually see the FSX full version.

Really glad to see this airplane coming to life in FS with this much detail and workmanship.:salute:
 
Wait.. I'm confused.. I'm doing the FDE for the the guy who is like, my ultimate hero?? The person responsible for getting me interested in doing what i do in the first place? I need to get my Jaw off the floor.. :D
I am confused though.. The Model was done by Michael Davies and the project was passed off to crashaz. We started putting the team together Saturday morning. We still need someone to model the interior. The plane will be Donationware to support SOH.. I'm actually doing the FSX version because i dont have fs9 on my system.
I know i must sound scatter brained and i apologize.. I'm just very confused, but if this is for Milton, then, how do i make it better than perfect??
 
Thanks Cag, but truth told, at the moment, i'm not sure if i'm supposed to be working on this or not.. If Milton already has a team lined up for the fsx project, then, innocently or not, i'm stepping on someones toes.. I dont want to do that, but at the same time, i'm just not sure i could take losing another project i love..

I dont think you are. I have not heard anyone objecting to the matter. I think for now, staying motivated is going to be key here.
 
Don't worry Pam, I'm sure Milton would love your help for this project as chief FDE maker and project manager.:applause:

Staying motivated is easy for me.. When it comes to the planes i love, my friends literally have to drag me away from my work, and i love this plane. maybe ts because its as big as a frikkin bomber, but handles like a fighter and just as fast as most. Maybe its because its unique. i dont know. Whatever the reason, i love it..
 
Hi Pam,

You gotta love those fighter bombers, I just love the Idea of a massive aircraft being as maneuverable as a fighter. Hitler didnt, and even had production of the Me262 fighter put behind that of the bomber. talk about bad decisions.....
 
It's looking good and definitely an overlooked type. I did notice that it appears to have counter rotating props like a P-38, real P-61's had both props rotating in the same direction. Keep up the good work, FSX needs more aircraft. :jump:
 
good video - and don't forget to get some sleep between now and when it is released.

(for the next soundtrack you could use Alice Cooper's "The Black Widow"

Warchild, I think falcon got a little mixed up because of the twin engines:kilroy:, the model he is talking about is the f7f tigercat and Milton is the modeler and it is a SOH project for both fs9 and X:jump: Here it is: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=35671
I can't wait to get my paws on both the widow and tigerkitty.

Yep, exactly right, I should have done a bit more checking before going off half-cocked like that. . .it is the F7F Tigercat that Milton and friends are working on. . .onward and upward Pam. . .sorry for the screwup!!:salute:
 
When this gets released, I'm going to have to beg the wife to let me buy a copy of FSX and then get this plane, 'tis my favorite bird and the work so far looks great.
