SOH-CM-2025
....otherwise known as the the Saab 29 Tunnan ("Barrel").

Does anyone know if there is a version of the -F with wing tanks AND Sidewinders?

Kent

Also....is there a paintkit for that baby? It is screaming for a nice natural metal sceme....with perhaps a dayglo fuselage band!
 
Tim...

....this freaking thing is GREAT

Kent

P.S. Can you be bribed????

P.S.S. Ever thought seriously about doing a SAAB 105???
 
There's something...

....that is JUST cool about a 1st generation jet fighter that is simple, but great fun to fly.

Kent

P.S. Seems like the kind of airplane the Swiss AF would have bought....(I think only Sweden and Austria did in reality)
 
That's another paint scheme....

....this airplane just seems to BEG for fictitious schemes (the Israelis and Finns ALMOST bought some, apparently...)

Flew this little piggie for the first time since FS9 ... she's sweet!

Does anyone know if any repaints were ever done for it? I thought I recall Jens Ole did a couple - could be mistaken, though.

Thanks!

Just like any other plane from Piglet, this airplane is definitely beggin for PHOTOREALISTIC repaints.
The Skyraider with the photoreal "412" repaint is one of the greatest-looking planes in my hangar.
I wish I had repainter skills :/
 
Interesting, I didn't know about IDF's interest in the aircraft, though the Finns' interest is logical. Learned something new today ... :)

I was just thinking of the factual, albeit less know schemes ...

The recce version S29C second from the top looks just delightful ...

Anyway, just food for thought ... this little gem is wonderful Tim - thanks so much for reincarnating her for FSX!!!

The flying barrel is a good looking lady for shure, and the pilots who flew her states that nothing contemporary could meshure up to it. It is said that it would outperform the mig-15 and F-86 in all areas accept high altitude dogfight.

I've got two of em parked fifteen minutes from where i live so if anyone need pictures for a photoreal repaint, shoot me a pm.

By the way, there is a club for pilots that has 1000hours or more in the barrel: http://medlem.spray.se/superswede/F22/tusen_timmar_tunnan.htm I'ts in swedish thou...
 
Glad you like my lady, chubby chaser!:wavey:
I just may rebuild the Tunnan one day. Always just loved that plane. There's just something about the lines, and history of the J-29. Only other plane that I ever totally remade more than once was the J-21, A-1 and OV-10 series. Wait, I did make a J7W1 Shinden for CFS2, along with the first J-21.
 
I downloaded this one, installed it and it doesn't show up. Does it really need FSX-acceleration to show up?

:wavey:

Are the folder names correct and do the .cfg files point to the correct locations?
