Ok, I had to much time on my hands this afternoon and was fiddling around...just a little what if project. :japan:

On the nose.

Right on Bill, it's Akemi's Ki-78. Out of the box she's a beatiful plane but a handfull to fly and no weapons being an experimental and all. Well I gave it a different air file, dp, and configure file and threw in some gun tubes and DB-605 sounds and now I got a nice "what if" or "WTF" fighter. :jump:
 
Sorry buddy, but it will take someone with cockpit making skills and maybe a fictional paint job to go along with it to make a good enough product for general consumption.

I didnt plan on an upload simply because the the dp and air file was just part of the issue.
The 2d & 3d cockpit detail didnt have a gun sight in the original plane so I borrowed the 2d panel Morton made for Akemis J2M and although better than the original and usable, it still isnt quite a good fit with regard to the Ki-78 . And uploading the dp and air file would only be a partial fix, the end user would still have to find thier own solution to the cockpit issue.
