This is a repaint for the former payware Aeroplane Heaven FS9 Bristol Bulldog.
The repaint depicts the Bristol Bulldog A8485 which was purchased in 1929 by the US Navy for evaluation. On October 25, 1929, the Bulldog II (c/n 7358, s/n A-8485) was tested by the US Navy at Anacostia, but during a dive-bombing run, an aileron failed causing the plane to crash and killing the pilot Lt. Cuddihy. After static tests at Filton, a modification was made to the wing and a replacement Bulldog (c/n 7398, s/n A-8607) was sent to the US Navy on February 24, 1930.
Credits: Aeroplane Heaven for creating this timeless model and Martin Wright for his wonderful dtxbmp, without which these textures would not exist.
Enjoy,
