Which versions of the S-2T are planned? Just the Conair Firecat or will there be others as well?

Cheers,

The ConAir with the PT-6A engines, the CDF version with the Garrett engines, and the military version with the Garrett TP.
 
Thanks Milton ! :salute:
But no intention of that AAR version you'd shown of the Brazilian Navy?

Cheers,
Hank

Hank,

See post 2296 and beyond for answers to your question.

I have started the KC-2 but lack of detailed info puts it on hold for the moment.
 
S2Turbo ConAir Mapping Issues

Marty,

I have painted the upper and lower services so that mapping issues can be highlighted.

As you can see from the screen shots, teh right wing has the issues you mentioned.
That is easily correctable.

But also notice the insides of the flap and spoiler wells. I will correct this too.

My intent is to have those "inside" areas darker so they will take the bottom wing texture.

Are you okay with that?
 
Wow! Just got a sneak preview from "ferondoe" on the CONAIR S2Turbo .... WOW! I think you will love those PT-6A's beautifully rendered in the ConAir scheme as only Marty can do. :jump: I think he will post some screen shots soon.

Marty,

The S2Turbo with the PT-6A's was a long time coming since you requested it last January. You have made it worth the wait and the many hours I struggled to get those air intakes to look correct. Thank you very much for this beautiful paint scheme. :applause: :medals:
 
Something Odd at SimV

I was just perusing the download list at Simviation and I saw something that raised an eyebrow.

It's an S-2 Tracker for FSX by Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations, and it's said to be an FSX upgrade of Milton's Tracker, the first of seven releases.

I thought it curious, since I haven't seen an FSX version of the Tracker posted here - though maybe there is one and I just missed it.

Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations :ques::ques::ques:

Hi Mick,

Thank for your concern.

The S-2F-3 Tracker for FSX by Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations is legitimate and the project was documented in the FSX forums. This version is also available here in our SOH library. :wiggle:

ERS is converting all the models to FSX native with my permissions and blessings. :jump:
