Freeware T-37 Tweet

Downloading now... Even if I never fly it, it's good to support the author, and it'll be nice to see a few parked on ramps now and then.
 
One of my favorite aircraft. Thanks for the heads up. Just downloaded and off to check it out.

Nice aircraft.

On first impression, this is outstanding, maybe the best freeware plane we have seen yet in the sim. Looks, sounds, systems, flight model all seem to be payware grade to me. A very nice surprise.

The Tweet looks great but my-o-my I wish Orbx or someone of that ilk would do us a top drawer NAS North Island..
 
Ain't she sweet? You'll fly her Tom, just be sure and read the English documentation included with the package and learn the instrument controls et al. It's a wonderful model and hard to believe that it's freeware, I have paid for lesser.

When you see these VC textures, folks will understand why a few of us were miffed at the 314 offering. This isi a fine offering.

Exactly! It has detailing and texturing that don't look like a mid-range FS2004 product.

I hope the repainters can show this plane a little love. The T-37 served with 20 or so countries, often for long enough to wear several different trainer paint schemes with each, and was used by some of their aerobatic display teams as well. Lots of excellent skinning possibilities.

If it wasn't for Anuschka i'd be all over this Tweet ! I can handle only so much quality at one time... (fond memories of it in FS9 when it was released by the two developers who flew the real bird )

Kudus to the devs who brought it back to MSFS and for free and all !
 
Just some quickie screenshots from a short test hop last night. (Note, if you want to see air force-suited pilots, be sure to change your pilot selections (pilot/copilot) in your MSFS "misc" menu.)

I am not really a jet man, but I have always loved Tweetie. There is a Paint Kit enclosed in the download, but unfortunately the textures are .PNG in lieu of layered .psd. Easy to work with as you have seen by Jankees example that he's working on.

The only time they were ever that clean was right off the assembly line in Wichita or right out of the paint booth!

Need some properly weathered textures!
 
LOVE Jankees all-white variant...and am hoping for a non-dayglo bare metal 1960s ATC variant at some point:

Loving the first iteration of this classic...

Patience, my work is interfering at the moment, but it's on my list
