One word - wow!!!

A tinge of sadness though, as it means that I will have to remove my existing Vikings - the first time I have ever had to remove one of Rick Piper's masterpieces.

Very nice bird. Been fiddling around with the lights. Let me know what ya think

Add these to the panel.cfg at the bottom of the VC01 section

gauge19=shockwave_lights!SW Lights, 1,1,1,1
gauge20=shockwave_lights!SW Lights_taxi_gear, 1,1,1,1


Replace the existing Lights section in the aircraft,cfg

[LIGHTS]
light.0=3, -0.18, -44.49, 2.4, fx_shockwave_navred
light.1=3, -0.18, 44.49, 2.4, fx_shockwave_navgre
light.2=3, -41.58, 0.0, 2.783, fx_shockwave_navwhi
light.3 = 4, 13.77, -1.50, 2.63, fx_shockwave_vclight,
light.4 = 4, 13.77, 1.50, 2.63, fx_shockwave_vclight,
light.5 = 4, 8.31, 0, 3.63, fx_shockwave_vclight,
light.6 = 2, -0.38, -44.49, 2.4, fx_shockwave_strobe ,
light.7 = 2, -0.38, 44.49, 2.4, fx_shockwave_strobe_2 ,
light.8 = 5, -0.28, -30.3, 0.5, fx_shockwave_landing_light_tail
light.9 = 6, 2.3, 11.0, -3.1, fx_Shockwave_landing_light_small
light.10 = 6, 2.3, -11.0, -3.1, fx_Shockwave_landing_light_small

But no way am I deleting Rick Piper's versions. Some of the best panels around. 'Course I now have the luxury of a very big hanger which makes keeping "older" versions handy --just in case.

 

[nigel richards]

Keep them both

One word - wow!!!

Hang on Andy, both models have their merits. Why don't we just keep both of them. If its a question of space then just retain fewer paint versions of each. Then you've got TWO masterpieces instead of one! Shame not to have two great models.
I think I have all the models by both of these great builders...would't be without ANY of them.
