There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The extra liveries will not be available on release day but shortly thereafter as a separate package. (and it is possible we may charge for them...)

USAFE Aircraft didn't have the 'readme' signs in Portugese then..?

Little 'inside' joke about the Portugese Colin; there's an F-86 in the museum where Vinflyer works , which is painted like the a Wolfhounds Sabre, but in it's previous life it belonged to the Portugese airforce. Now after years of standing outside in the Dutch climate the original Portugese markings are showing through, and some of the markings have never been painted over so some of the warning signs are in a somewhat strange language for a USAFE bird!
Edit: Here's two photos:
Definitely seen better days....

Must have been a lot of "eh's" added to the end of everything bad.
I jest of course.

As a matter of fact, Bone went to visit the museum in Soesterberg. He brought back a lot reference material which we used for our paint. And we decided to translate the Portuguese stencils

Bernt has done the FDE and all the pilots love it. It's not exactly hard but it's not easy either... The T-38 is tough in the pattern but nice everywhere else... this is just a bit tough everywhere...

Hi
Yellow lettering into black rectangle:
1-Open door and pull cable to unblock (or unlock) cover (canopy)
2-Open handle door (or cover) on cabin cover (canopy) and push back.
The big yellow arrow says "salvamento" wich means rescue....

Sorry, but without meaning to be rude, tactless or undiplomatic, I am going to stop this right now:
1) the price is 34.99 and, if you buy it from our site, you can return it, no questions asked, within 30 days for a FULL refund.
2) the pilot is a relative 6 feet tall and is just fine where he is. Please remember, there are short and tall people in the world. (check real pics for size please)
3) he is wearing the correct colors and clothing for his day.
4) The plane, we believe, flies like a Sabre.
5) the left tail fin has 86 rivets and that is the correct number for the left tail fin.
6) it is our intention to arm this plane once (if) Tacpack for devs is ever released.
7) though I/we expect the comparisons to be endless, no further comments will be made on those comparisons by any MV team member. So feel free to make them and to make your own comparisons... we will, again, not be making any comments.
Thanks for your attention.
