RAF North Coates v2 for FS9, Ian Elliot 21/3/13


This is a new version of North Coates to make use of the great new Bloodhound objects
made available by Mike Hudson, this scenery is a representation of how the airfield looked
in the 1950's/ 1960's. if you want a version representing the station during WW2, there is an older version by me in the SOH scenery library ( its quite an old scenery but still looks ok)


You will need these objects-----


"bloodhound_fs9.zip" by Mike Hudson, available from Flightsim


"raf_gse.zip" by Paul Mitchell available from Flightsim

"classic_libraries_v2.zip" by Wolfgang Gersch, sorry about the large download size
for these but there's a lot of really good objects i like using.


enjoy, cheers ian
 
Bloodhound Launch

Here's a link to watch an Australian launch of a Bloodhound against an unmanned Meteor fighter. It's interesting how the boosters fall away. It was apparently a simple engineering design that depended on the thrust of the boosters to keep them attached to the missile. Once burned out, aerodynamic drag pulled them from the missile body as a one piece unit.

Marville, Langar and Zweibrucken have also been done. I've knocked up some RCAF repaints for AI I think they were JY's but I'll dig them out when I'm back up and running and have a look see
 
Thanks for that Hooky!

I checked my library and found a couple of Canadian skins for the Section 8 Sabre. While they are for squadrons based in France and Germany, they still bear the Canadian insignia.

Look for:

434 Squadron: rcaf23707.zip
439 Squadron: 439RCAF_538.zip

there are some more SF8 sabre paints at the Flight Ontario website look in downloads--> repaints

They've got Sqn's from France, Germany even the Operational Training Unit at CFB Chatham in Canada.
You can also get a scenery pack with All 106 of the Commonwealth Training Bases built during the war well worth a look.

Yes indeedy, look for the ones of 'Operation Leapfrog', the trail op to position the Sabres from Canada to North Luffenham,
and with later 'Leapfrog's' into mainland Europe
