Yes, we'll all have to roll our own FMs now. I think my FM is pretty cool, but it's a first draft and I don't think Hawker built a supersonic prop-driven taildragger?? :costumes:

Last I heard he was finishing up, but he has multiple projects going on so it may be awhile.

It's gettin' there fellas...

I've been adding a few more details here and there and working on getting the UVW maps correct. The biggest challenge now is the cockpit which is proving to be a bit frustrating without much consistent information. I have some reference photos and diagrams but most are for the F7F-3N Nightfighter model and not the -3 single seat dayfighter.

Great news!

This has been a good day: Milton's Grizzly is being uploaded for the FS9 croud, and this gorgeous thing is nearing completion!!! :mixedsmi:

Hi Greg,

Don't know if you already have this site for cockpit info and not the best photos and probably all nightfighters but maybe it will help.
