    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

FSX: The 1940 Fokker T.5 bomber released

Moerdijkbridges T.5 crash commemoration

Hi everybody,
As you might know, my FSX T.5 is part of a project for the commemoration of the crash of T.5 856 near the bridges of Moerdijk, 13th of May 1940. You can find more information at http://www.13mei1940.nl/
Please have a look there ;)
Kind regards, Daan
 
This is all I have Daan. I assume these are all familiar pictures for you.






(The 856 is the third in the row)

Cheers,
Huub
 
Some things in the basic interior were still missing, like panels and seats. I added these now.

This is the front section seen from the walkway. The gunner had this kind of view when the roof was closed, he then sat down at the front spar.

This was the office of the radio operator, offering us a view rearward through the truss frame to the tail turret.

Thanks for the kind replies!

Thanks to Felix I was able today, to finally get my cowl flaps animated correctly. There they are. The main and tail wheel are also animated, though retraction is a little buggy. I think this is because of my stupid armature set-up.
Blender toolset works good! Huub is working on weathering this baby, by the way. I was afraid it would cost me too much time, and weathering isn't the easiest part...

Thanks for the positive reactions friends!

Huub weathered the textures for me, he did a wonderful job. I'm now working op spec maps and I'll be starting bump maps too.

I was playing with this flying fortress (it was actually called so in 1937 in Dutch press!!) a bit, in Tower View, and I liked this image sooo much!
