This is adapted from my revision of the FS2004 DH87B by Frank Elton.

Due to the extensive nature of the MDL revisions, it is uploaded as a complete aircraft for ease of installation.

I used G-Max to revise the texture mapping, making camo repaints possible. I replaced Frank's pilot figure with adaptions of the crew figures from Dave Garwood's Anson. The model animations were revised, adding opening cabin doors & making the prop disk a 3D disc, like that used by Akemi on his models. To depict the floatplane version, & removed the gear & replaced it with some new pontoon floats. I created a new waterland fx to fit the model.

The panel was revised & made WIN 7 safe.

The airfile is completely revised, & the dp file is new.

The textures included are:

P6786 Based on a single photo, P6786 was one of four aircraft procured by the RAF for floatplane trials during 1937.

5600 Based on a written description of a camouflaged floatplane used by the RCAF during 1940.

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

Frank Elton for the original FS2004 Hornet Moth.
Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+, & his MCX/GMax model conversion tutorial.
Shessi for prompting me to (finally) get a handle on how G-Max displays gloss & shine with it's materials.
