Avro Anson mk1 early camo by UncleTgt
This is a revision & expansion of Dave Garwood's Avro Anson mk1 model for FS2004, converted for use in CFS 2. Because of the extensive nature of the revisions I've decided to upload as a series of complete aircraft for ease of installation.
This started out as an exercise in improving my G-Max skills. I wanted to depict some of the Anson models used by the RAAF, so a simple conversion of Dave's mk1 (early) with the sloping windscreen wouldn't suffice. The model has been revised, & adapted to provide a range of new models, depicting the various sub-types of the mk1 Anson.
The VC now has 2 panels, one for the main panel & 1 of the floor-mounted compass. I added bombsight & turret gun fixed windows to the panel.cfg & adapted it to use CFS2 compatible gauges.
The crew have individual faces, & the wireless operator's station varies with each model.
I added a few details to the cockpit interior. The prop disk has some depth to it, like Akemi modelled his prop disks.
The door opens/closes using the canopy command.
The airfile was thoroughly revised to give believable performance in speed, range & ceiling in CFS 2, particularly with an eye on how the AI flies & stability in formation. It could still be improved though...
The dp file makes use of my British bombs, & I included trainee crew & noselamp objects, added through the DP as payload options.
To keep the filesize down the sound is aliased to the stock P-38F.
This package depicts the Anson mk1 (early). K & L serial numbered Ansons had the earlier sloping windscreen. It was not a success, leaking badly in wet weather & had a tendency to not clear rain away, despite the rakish profile.
The texture supplied is:
D2 L7072 Aircraft from No.5 (Coastal) Operational Training Unit, R.A.F. Chivenor. The aircraft ID is a guess.
Crashed into the sea off Hartland Point, North Devon, on 27 August 1941. The pilot, S/Lt K. Sapieha, was a member of the Free French Air Force, & was of noble Polish and Lithuanian heritage. Born in France, he was a Prince in this family (probably the only Prince to serve at Chivenor). He had come to the U.K. and joined the Free French Air Force in London. He and the three trainee wireless operators all lost their lives in the crash.
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
Dave Garwood, Dave Booker & Saverio Maurri for their original FS2004 aircraft
Shessi & Allen for answering my noob questions regarding G-Max.
A big thank you to Allen for his model tutorial, & DOSmdlc_v2 tools.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions
