• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    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 politician 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 among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Beaufort Nose Panel Upload

Hi everyone: just wanted to let you know that I have uploaded my Nose-Panel for the Beaufort series. As you will see, this panel allows you to aim bombs and fly the aircraft at the same time. (In the Beaufort the Navigator was also the Bomb-aimer) Located in the nose, the navigator also had access to basic flight instruments. Special thanks to OBIO for helping me get this to work. Should be ready for download soon.

Of course, the problem with this type of attack is that you are pretty much a sitting duck as you coast in at around 130 mph to about 1000 feet! Not for the faint of heart. Flying a Beaufort was almost as dangerous as Kamikaze, whether you chose to bomb or use a torpedo. Once you have released your weapon, you are totally exposed to the enemy.
 
New Beaufort Skins

I have uploaded two new textures for the Beaufort: A Mark 1 night texture and a Mark 2 night texture. These are for the ETO.

enjoy!

on second thought, better if I email them to you; that way it won't clutter up the download space

PM me your address.
