Convair Delta Wing Test

Speaking of cats, reminded me of the "Cat O' Nine Tails". My guess is the cat had expended all nine lives and was like the victim to be, "Somewhat out of Luck".

Have you seen the photo shopped picture titled "How the world really ends?" Kim Jung "Non" working at his desk studying his papers with a huge red button on the far edge. A black cat is sitting intently staring at the button...
 
Had a few issue with the pilot but very close now. Will keep you all posted. Shouldn't be too long now.

Just to be clear, there was nothing wrong with the pilot model. I am just tweaking the positioning a bit.

Will be reviewing all the files and documentation today and doing some final tests.
I'll package up the beta when done.

Great shots Rick :)
 
FOR P3Dv3+ users: One thing to note. The textures are no longer optimized for both Dynamic and Static reflections. They are only optimized for static. DR in P3D at this point IMHO are inferior in overall quality to the static texture. They are washed out and do not provide the color contrast needed. As such if you choose to use DR with this model, it will not look like the screen shots posted here. Everything is included in the texture folders to have an out of the box experience as seen here. But DR must be turned OFF. Screen shots seen here are from P3Dv4.2.

Now that's a step toward FS realism!: ) T

Will there also be something appearing in our email re: about 10,000 forms to fill out wanting to know what kind of boneheaded play we were trying to make when we lost control of the bird?
 
This aircraft flight model was quite nice to fly and stable on approach for landing, but them Tom made it more realistic. I have crashed it twice in two days. :-/ That's why we cannot do these other RW realism things. I refuse to fill out those forms. :)

BTW, I have reviewed and cleaned up all the files. Testing is done.
Just two outstanding questions to be answered before I package it up.
 
Whose T33 Jet Sounds Are These?

We would love to use these T33 sounds as they fit perfectly and sound very realistic.
However, we cannot identify the copyright owner.

Can you help identify the source by looking at the list of sound.wav's and the cfg?

If we cannot find the owner or gain permissions, we will release the beta with default FA18 sounds.

Thanks for any help you offer.

I thought it was because the pilot had a bad attitude. Guess I was wrong.
 
Tom, No! It's what keeps us in our toes! Even the great Scott Crossfield had a mishap in the real jet! You've done a great job here!

Thanks Milton. I can not for the life of me remember where I got these. I had them as part of our T-33X update (I think) but I don't know for sure.
 
Wow. Well done. Unique and beautiful.

Just finished a short hop at Edwards. No problems. Landing a little tricky. Fortunately, I had a lot of runway.

Thanks to all. :very_drunk:
 
Don't know why but I can't even get the airspeed fast enough to even move the needle, let alone get it off the ground. Just rolls along the runway with the AB blasting away??? Using FSX Steam Edition. Looks fantastic by the way.
The Old MSgt

ETA: Same result in P3Dv3.
 
Excellent work all around except for the only issue for me is the red stall warning comes on and stays on at any speed above 65kts. Otherwise a heck of a lot fun!
 
Great job as usual, thank you. Sometimes, it feels like the old glory days of flight sim ;-)
