Aeroplane Heaven Grumman XF5F Skyrockets

Here's a link for all you CFS3 users....to the free Aeroplane Heaven Grumman XF5F Skyrockets. I have not checked these out in CFS3, but have them in CFS2 and FS2004...a bit dated by today's standards, but still nice. The stock skins aren't the best...but I'm sure there are those among you who can reskin these planes.

A big thanks to Aeroplane Heaven for these planes and for the link to the downloads. I will be uploading these auto installers to various sites to help keep these planes in the community (with AH permission of course).

I got them for CFS3. The only skin that works is the RAF version.

However, the USAF skin looks more like a UFO glowing rather than a silver paint job.

If you remove the USAF version and keep the RAF one, will it crash the game or will it run all the same?

Ordnance loadouts are not visible though. This has to be beta.

Its To do with the rdds, i done a new one ages ago, i will look it out and try and post it here. i never looked at the loadouts though.
 
here are the two files just unzip, pop into your usa skyrocket folder and let them overwrite, Hope i am not breaking any rules here, and the A.H. guy's are ok with this, Had a look at the loadouts and everything seems ok in the xpd, maybe the aircraft has no hardpoint nodes,
