Another USN Bird Neglected in Flight Sim

Rep said:
Hello gentlemen,

I will look at my 3d files in the next week in order to update the plane.
Any input, data on mistakes I 've done are welcome. If you have pictures, It's great.
I work on the C2 model too, and I did a simple VC too.

Cheers

Hello Pierre, I look forward to seeing that; thank you. :wavey:
 
Hi Milton,

Cheers from cold Paris

Hi,

if you want to include a radar system, you might want to take a look at the EC-121 radar upgrade for Manfred Jahn's Warning Star. FS9 only, but there are FSX radars out there as well.

Best regards,
Volker

Hi Volker, interesting, we may want to look at that down the road.

For now, we will see if there is enough good data, 3-views, and cockpit pictures to warrant starting this project. I will once again volunteer to take the lead on the exterior modeling. If we can get someone for the VC, sounds, and textures, then we may have a project. :wiggle:

A really nice 3-view would be encouragement for this aircraft getting built. Second to that would be good quality interior and cockpit pictures. If someone has those kinds of resources, I would consider this as an SOH project.

I have all that stuff, but only for the E-2A...the ORIGINAL Super Fudd. :icon_lol:

Hawkeye52, that is great to have and maybe someone will jump on that.

I am willing, when time permits, to do the E1-B, or the C-1, or the S2-F, but I have 3 projects going now so either one will be a while getting started. And, I would still prefer 3-views with cross-sections for a more accurately shaped fuselage.
 
C-1 Trader? Be still my heart. I do love COD flights.

I got a ride in the USS Lexington's C-1 Trader just before they retired it. It's now in the Naval Aviation Museum at Pensacola.
 
The puter is still MIA but it's great to see the interest here. Never heard of any E-2s other than Flight Deck' and Rick's so I'll give that other one a try whenever I get up and running again. BTW, thought there was a super sound set that came with an ATR turboprop just before my stuff crashed. I'll try to find that too, and if the author has no objections we may have sounds ready in the wings.


What are these little dots that drift through my words??? Must be near Christmas.:jump:

WOW! Now we're talking :jump: We are getting somewhere now with details; very nice Mgr ... this will be most helpful. {{{ Running over to shake your hand }}} :applause:
 
Milton, you do realize that if you do a C-1 Trader, I'll have to bring my paint brushes out of retirement.
