Hello gents,
does someone know if a Bf-109 G-12 (biplace schoolversion) was evermade to be flyable in FS2004?
On my knowledge there are to realones existing today, one with a RR Merline engine and one with a DB605 engine
Would be an interesting "blind" take off and landing experiance from the rear cockpit
Best Regards
Michael Vader
 
Don't think I have for any FS/CFS. Yoinked the CFS3 and dumped it into Blender and after a few hours I have this.

Hallo Allen,
thank you for your reply,
Looks really fine indeed.
Would there be a chance for a flyable FS2004 version?
I would be quiet interested to make a cockpit with the possible change from front to rear seat.
Best Regards
Michael Vader
 
Oh, THAT would be nice!! A Bf-109 TRAINER with a double cockpit! WOW!!! Can't wait !!!

Prompted by your post I did a thorough search of my archives and of all the sites I could think of and ....... nada!! We're well served in every other version in both payware and freeware, including the earliest version courtesy of Shessi* and A.F. Scrub, but no G-12; it is a Scrub kinda niche, so I was surprised to find nothing, and I guess it is always possible the Team Daedalus folk have it on their list, but if Allen can turn that into something usable (and I know how busy he is so that is a big "IF") it may be the only option.

* Wonderfully enhanced by your good self Papi.

Agreed ; I suspected the usual suspects, Piglet, A F Scrub, or Shessi may have dabbled in the past but found zilch!

Yoinked the cockpit and stated work on it. All I really have to look at is model kits so thing are a lot of guess work. Once all of the editing work is done I'll get things moved over to gMax and rebuild it for FS04.

More up to date. Using dummy gauges from CFS3 that used modeled gauges so I could get an idea of scale for the rear panel area. 100% Blender still.

Wow,
Allen that looks very fine indeed
Ok, I will beginn to search photos for the rear cockpit enhancements.
For the moment I was more focussd on helicopters as I can fly them easier
with my eratic controls.
But Beeing very attentive at the controls to prevent eratic movements it is possible to fly.
I tried the realair Spitfire and the flight replicas BF 109 K (the most powerfull) with total realism configuration.
Hmmm difficult but possible.
So as soon as possible i will set me to work on the cockpits.
Thank you Allen to put your efforts on this interesting bird.
In germany they remotorized their G-12 with a RR merlin engine because it would she would have more
engine hours and spare parts potential than with the rare DB and sensible DB605 engine.
Best regards

Good evening Allen and Andy
wonder if i would find better photos than those ones on the mentionned site.
very good
Also every other docs are welcome, thank you Andy
Allen when you say to change the front end, I believe you mean the engine.
No, to make a version with a RR engine is really not necessary.
Wth the DB she would be correct.
The rear seat is really very sparse.
Best regards

Granted,it's not a real 109 two seater,it's the HA-1112-M4L Buchon G-AWHC,but there's plenty of front and rear cockpit shots.
I'm not sure how much the Buchon would differ from the Messer,but I always thought the Buchon to be a direct licenced built copy
of the 109G minus the DB605 engine.

An interesting read on the Buchon/109,Restoring and flying the ex-Connie Edwards' Buchons by Richard Grace:

Exported to gMax and out as FS2004 model for animation checks. So far, so good.

Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-12 difference Buchon vs BF109

Hallo friends,
there are significative differencies between the Buchon and the original BF-109G: the tail-rudder unit.
When Hispano Aviation did not getting original Daimler Benz engines they tried to adapt a Hispano Suiza engine.
This engine turned counter clockwise instead the DB engine turning clockwise as same as the later RR engine unit.
So Hispano Aviation did make a new Tail-Rudder with an oposite profile shape than the original to counter the other propeller and airflew effects.
When later they did receive and mount RR engines they did not change the tail rudder unit!
This fact conducted to amplify the 109's behaviour to slew to the left. That also amplified the 109's bad reputation of her start and landings behaviour.
I do not know if later remotorized aircraft with DB engines had new tails as the original ones.
For having tested a lot of 109's in flightsim, I believe the flight replica 109's are quiet close to the original compared to flight test.
just a bit tail heavy. Especially the test flights with the 109 G-2 "Black Six" are very usefull to compare.
So for the flightdynamics the flight replicas 109 G-6 might be certainly of good use.
Looking forward to have the G-12 on my tarmac to begin to work on the cockpits.
Allen your screenshotsare very nice I believe there will be not a lot of work for me to do LOL
Best regards

Someone will have to make or find a dono flight dynamics. I'm just using the CFS3 aircraft.cfg edited to fit the model and CFS1 .air so I have something to move in FS04. If someone want to make flight dynamics or know of a good .air file I can use let me know.

Hello Michael,

If you have a look at the first link I posted to Platinum Fighters sale of the HA-1112-M4L Buchon G-AWHC,you'll see that it has the taller fin and rudder of the later G series 109's fitted.
 
Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-12 (biplace school version)

Good evening,
Miggers, the buchon of the site is an absolute "bizza".
The original G-12 had only the small fin as all the 109 before with the G-10 was introduced the larger fin
Also the canopy has nothing in commun with the original rear cockpit framing.
As far as I know the G-12 flown by the Hangar 10 crew was a buchon reconverted to a historical G-12
by Meier Motors in germany They did a lot of work to make this G-12 as correct as possible
Allen, for the flight dynamics, don't worry I will have a look on it just take if you have the one from flight replicas if you have it.
If you dont have them I will send them to you
Best regards
Yours

If someone wants the gMax source they can have it but I'm not doing a port to FSX. My FSX Gold CDs should have all of the gMax add-ons parts but 2 hours of video to see how to convert from FS04 to FSX is a big no thanks.

If the flight replicas 109 became freeware sure if not I'll DM Captain Kurt about the Team Daedalus 109s as he did the flight dynamics for them.
