In a bid to actually get stuff off my hard drive and on to other peoples I've decided to change tack and take on texturing duties myself. If anyone's interested in commenting on the progress so far I've started a new site at the link below. I plan on only modelling for P3D from now on as testing across multiple sims isn't something I relish and as with Flying Stations it'll be relatively wallet friendly.

The early Firefly is first up, if only because it's basically been ready for about 2 years apart from the VC textures.

BZ Skippy!

I bought it, and I'm still using P3D V3! Someday I'll have version 4 and it'll be waiting for me :)

It looks great in the screenshots - thanks for bringing another FAA aircraft into the sim for us!

Thank You for reply.
This is rare choice (Firefly in simulators) so I must to have this addon :biggrin-new:.
What about TacPack? Is needed or if not any plans for the future (like TACAN=VOR of moving carriers)?
Just idea for carrier ops.

It's not needed, but I am planning on adding TacPack as part of an update around Christmas that will also fix any issues that emerge and hopefully add PBR if that comes with the next update to P3D.
 
sorry i have no idea how i missed this thread, the RAN had a few of these in several schemes and it was only the other night i was thinking about this aircraft

off to buy it now

YoYo,

Great shots! If anyone's wondering around the slightly lighter square the under wing roundel is on, that appears to be where they painted over the European theatre markings before entering SEAC and was based on the picture below, which I'm 99% certain is the same aircraft.

Let me know if you're still having problems with the throttle!

Awesome plane! Thanks for doing a less mainstream plane. (Though I'm psyched for your Seafire as well!)

One minor issue: When I chose a folder on the drive where I store my P3D v4.3 addon planes for installing (since my "documents" folder is on a spinning hard drive instead of an SSD), the installer copied all of the files, but P3D didn't register them. I had to manually move them to the appropriate folders.

The problem exists still, I haven't idea why?
It looks like this and I havent for 100% double saved throttle axis. I use FSUIPC full version also.
See this: https://youtu.be/69anXA5mE8c (throttle lever always comes back).

Btw. I see tail wheel on/off works, Is it any indicator for this? :wavey:
