• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Kawanishi 4-Motor Flying-Boats H8K "Emily"

I agree....................

I found the original post and here is the listing

Kawanishi H8K downed................

Caption- A group of Marines from the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Marines surveys an Emily destroyed just off shore of Gavutu Island in Tulagi Harbor. The Emily had flown to Gavutu to deliver an urgent shipment of aviation oil for the Japanese H6K Mavis flying boats stationed there
 
CFS2 Emily

I found a FS2000 version over at flightsim.com..........by Aidan McCaffrey

I haven't tried it out yet............but here is a shot

I am probably behind on this craft...................must have been some discussion .........................that got lost with the recent forum crashes and hacks
 
That plane was converted to CFS2 by Buddha13, then I did an update to it a short while back. New panel set, new skins. 4 individual uploads of the Emily in different colors. Also uploaded a sound pack for the Mavis that works great with the Emily.

OBIO
 
The Emily was by far the better plane, but I've always liked the Mavis better ans use it whenever possible. With its long shark-like body and parasol wing it looks more evil and is more evocative of the period.
