DO-26 Flying Boat

Look for 'do26.zip' and 'embflaw.zip' at Flightsim.com for Hauke Keitel's Do-26.

Great aircraft for it's age!
 
Cheers! I shall crack a can to you!
I just smoked half a packet of cigarettes, and drunk two cans of beer looking for this beautiful bird!
You made my day!:jump:
 
Hauke's version is how they appeared pre-war, only 6/7(?) were made and were all converted to have turrets, etc. Way back when, a few of us CFS2ers converted Hauke's great model to CFS2. Luckily CFS2 allowed us to add turrets as a payload to the model, unfortunately they won't work in FS9 :(

The repaints should work okay, but might look odd without the turrets. I you so desire, just look under my downloads here at OH.

If you are looking for CFS2 and are having trouble, Just flight has it, for around a Ten spot IIRC.

PS. Thanks, been a long time since I did anything, mostly help other folks out these days.
PPS. little secret, if you do try these OLD paints and prefer authentic markings, there's a renamed fin texture that can be used to replace the originals in each tex folder. They were done this way out of respect for the original designer.
 
Hi,

Unfortunately your two repaints are gone in the ghost land ..

Obio,

I've been looking for the originals to do so. Was considering asking to have all my stuff removed and re-upload the lot, seems a good few don't work.There are different versions, versions with patches, versions with mistakes, etc. Quite fancy a clean slate and try to get them right this time, lol!!

Obio,

Good luck with that one! :salute:

I don't know how anybody can imagine the sound of a "six cylinder, twelve piston, two stroke, diesel" engine!
"Vorsprung durch Technik" springs to mind.
It was apparently the only successful diesel fueled aircraft engine.
 
Don't forget the Diesel powered Zeppelins .... and of course in modern day the DA-40 and DA-42, Cessna 206 and 182. The latter 2 only in Europe so far.

Damn you all, this post had me scurrying off to FS.com to search the Do. Then I got waylayed by Scrub a/c and then searching paints by Wooster and on and on. Two hours later...........
 
Hey Tim, I'm thinking maybe it would sound something like eight big-rig trucks, all parked and rattling along at idle, and not one muffler in the bunch!:jump:
 
Not much rattle if any rattle in two stroke diesels. At least the Detroits, Electromotive-Clevelands and Fairbanks-Morse engines I used to work on didn't. It's the 4 strokes that like to rattle.
 
Hi,

Now .. can someone explain me how I can "take off" from the water with this one ... as it's act like a pelican englued in the oil of the Mexico Gulf ........ :icon_eek:

Been working on that issue. The problem, as least I think, is that the retractable pontoons are set up as wheels/landing gear. I changed the contact points for them to floats and the plane took off from the water like a trooper, but the retractable pontoons no longer retracted. So, they have to remain set as landing gear, but probably moved up a bit to avoid touching the water....Maybe even removing the brakes from them as well.

Check for the AI repaint
Do26AI.zip (3.98 Meg) (downloaded 495 times) AI only versions of Do26 ------------------------ Requires prior instalement of any player version of this a/c. Two notes of interest, the A version comes with a different skin, P5+BH, this can also be used on a player aircraft if so desired, but gives AI a different serial from the player P5+AH. Also please find enclosed in the C scheme corrected textures for the under wings, copy and paste the Flaechen,bmp from the AI into your player version to correct the mirrored lettering. Hope you enjoy, Thanks again to Hauke, Pedro, Thicko, Ged and Mark. Jamie
You can use thosde textures with the flyiable plane .. you just have to modify some entry in the aircaft.cfg (manufacturer .. model .. )

OBIO
Thank's
Will check on that issue when time allow ....
