Clawson-Shessi J2F Duck Postwar by UncleTgt
This is a development of Paul Clawson's Grumman J2F Duck for CFS 2. This is a complete aircraft.
The basic model was further developed by Shessi & has various unmirrored and detail enhancements, as well as being made multi-LOD. The model itself has a glossy finish in keeping with the paint schemes used. For the postwar period this model includes the RDF aerial you see on the dorsal spine ahead of the tail, & is a rough approximation of the J2F-6 model.
The airfile uses the airfile originally posted by Bearcat241 in a thread at SOH, & subsequently modified by me.
The 2D panel & VC panel are WIN 7 friendly. They use a 2D panel background by Don Bodenstedt made for Swingman's Duck for FSX, I extensively altered and resized to make CFS 2 & WIN 7 friendly & then replaced the gauges with CFS2 friendly guages. I have tried to contact Mr. Bodenstedt for his permission to use the panel background, but have had no reply to date.
It includes the seaplane wake effect created by Bill Kestell, & the dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.
The textures are:
J2F-6 US Naval Reserve, 1947: EU236 was photographed at San Fransisco, California in 1947
OA-12 U.S.A.F., Alaska, 1947: This one belonged to the U.S. Air Force's 10th Air Rescue Squadron stationed at Ladd Air Force Base, Fairbanks, Alaska.
Weapons used are: The Lewis Gun from the Mike Stone Walrus, Bismark 13s Beaufighter Bomb mounts, Baldy's Mk53 Depth Charge, & DBolts US 100lb bomb. All are available at SOH.
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: Paul Clawson for a great aircraft.
Shessi for his work at developing this older model, remapping textures & adding details.
Bill Kestell for the seaplane effects.
Don Bodenstedt for the basic 2D panel background.
Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
