A-26 Invader Expansion

[Tom Burnside]

I downloaded the brilliant A-26 Invader the other day and I have to say fantastic work to the people here. I just wanted to know if there an expansion pack as ive noticed the pack does not include the model with the tanks at the end of the wing.

Hi Tom,

You'll find the B-26K (A-26A) Counter-Invader here:

There are a number of excellent repaints out there for the B-26K version. Some are SE Asia (Vietnam Era) schemes done by Henry William, which are really nice.

will it work in FS9 as that is for FSX.

 

[Milton Shupe]

That link and the original B26K aircraft is for FS9. There is a native FSX A26B/C version available and I believe Bomber_12th is working on an FSX native B26K version in his spare time.

The paints that I have for the Milton Shupe and Bomber 12th FS9 B-26K that were done by Henry William are all FS9 compatable. :salute: As Milton stated, a Native FSX version of the model is in the works.

Bomber 12 also did a On Mark Marksman civil conversion of the A-26 with wing tanks. Look for: On Mark A-26 Marksman.zip

 

[pfflyers]

Rich Murray (ROS) did a real nice "Super 26" civil conversion, similar to the Marksman, but with a stretched nose and full interior.

 

[Willy]

I was thinking ROS did one, but couldn't find it.

las_s26.zip here in the SOH archives.

If the link doesn't work search "Real Old Salt" in the file archive search thingie.

 

[Blackbird686]

Hmmm, I could have sworn that Henry William did at least ONE repaint for the FS9 B-26K by Milton and Bomber 12th. I'm going to have to go through my archives... pretty sure I have it tho.

Has SOH got anymore warbird projects on the cards.

 

[Willy]

Just a little ol' Harpoon and a couple of others that I'm aware of.

 

[Milton Shupe]

We have these two in progress. Eight of the Grumman "Stoof" series have been released.

The Lockheed Harpoon is in progress; it may be followed by a Lodestar. Textures, sounds and cockpit all all in final stages of work.

And, the Grumman series is in process of being converted to FSX native. Here is the first one as dvj posted over in that forum.

Both look very good. May I also ask how do I taxi the A-26 as I havent got a pair of pedals.

If you have a twisting joystick for rudder control then in the

 [brakes]

section of the aircraft.cfg file add this line

 differential_braking_scale = 1.0

then all you have to do is twist stick while pressing your brakes key; turn left plus brake = left wheel brake,
turn right plus brake = right wheel brake, release rudder and press brake = both wheel brakes

IIRC a was posted in the A-26 thread if you don't have twisting joystick or pedals.

I dont have a twisting joystick.

Tom,

You could try using differential brakes to stear. Off the top of my head, I think the keys are: F11 and F12.
