• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

B-17E 'Tojo's Physic'

I just uploaded a re-paint of the FDG2 (Donationware) B-17E, representing aircraft 41-2640, operated by the 19th Bomb Group, 93rd Bomb Squadron. I need more Pacific Theater Fortresses! This particular airplane is evidently most famous for having suffered severe damage in a taxi collision accident with another B-17E on Horn Island in July 1942. Oh well, history is history! There seems to be some conflict of opinion as to the tail number of this plane, but the "vote" seems to go to 41-2640. It doesn't help that the other ship in the accident was 41-2460!
 
That doesn't look like the stock water textures...at least it looks different from mine. What are you using?
 
Thanks, all!

Look for waterzone.zip at AVSIM. Done by Pete Drazzof, Lynn & Bill Lyons, Daniel Buechter, and Ed Truthan. I've tried two or three different (free) water textures for FS9, and I like this one the best.
