Allen Airacobra Mk1 Revisions by UncleTgt

This is a revision of Allen's P-39D1 Airacobra for CFS 2. Because of the extensive nature of the revisions I've decided to upload as a complete aircraft for ease of installation. I've taken Allen's P-39D1 & created an RAF Airacobra mk1.

The model has been tweaked with a blue/green glass colour & slight changes to sheen using MDLmat. Cockpit glass is now shiny. To avoid possible CTDs if using this alongside other P39 versions that also share the same model file source, I've renamed the P39D1_airacobra.mdl to Airacobra_mk1.mdl.

The airfile was thoroughly revised & optimised for AI formation keeping & combat performance, whilst giving believable performance in speed, range & ceiling.

The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN 7+ friendly. I combined Shina's excellent 2D panel with the stock VC panel view, & improved the resolution of the VC view instruments.

I used Lawdog's P-39 sound v2.

The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects. It makes use of Bismark13's Beaufighter bombs, & my recompile of Wolfi's TBF US pilot as a RAF ETO pilot. The droptank is DBolt's P47 tank. I also created a P39_fishtail_exh exhaust object. It adds the fishtailed exhaust stubs only seen on the RAF Airacobra & a pilots seat. The stock pilot is hidden using alpha channel textures.

The texture supplied is: UF -J Aircraft from 601 sqn RAF, circa October 1941.

To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.

Thanks to: Allen for his P-39D1 Airacobra.

Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+.

Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes.

Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.

Wolfi for use of his great US pilot figure.

Lawdog for all of his many great soundpacks.

This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
