• 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.

F-18, F-15, or ? Can't relocate it.

A few days ago, on one of the MSFS forums I belong to, I swear I saw that someone had ported either a F-18, or maybe a F-15? The external model looked great, and so did the VC, although (as is typical) most, if not all, the gauges did not work. Still, it looked nice. Now I can find that post.

Anyone else here see it? Thanks, NC
 
Think both the Iris and MilViz F-15s can be converted - but anything relying on MFDs isn't really worth the effort as they don't work...older models are much more rewarding.

Here is a cockpit video of landing the Cougar at KSAN, almost all the gauges work (one gauge on the coaming is U/S, the machmeter and engine gauges are out of calibration)
Even the weapon switches work as intended and select external stores.
The flight model is not as good as a native MSFS plane...but it's beautiful...landing was pretty ropey, partly my fault - too high and kept speedbrakes out to keep speed down, so not by the book.

Conversion was pretty simple, I'd be happy to work it through.

Cheers
Keith
