There are so few modern warboats for us stolid, pipe puffing introverts who prefer a more stately conveyance. No Tradewinds,or SC-1's. No Seagull or Shetland. A modern Be-12 or PS-1. But Mr. Ito has given us a not bad Marlin. Some boo-boo's in the model,but hey- it looks pretty nice, and has a VC.
So here are some WIPS I've been chipping away at, something for us P- boat fetishists, and one for our wildfire pilots. I will also upload a new config and air file to change her to piston engines,and address its handling and float point issues, and I'll do what I can with the panel. Almost there.
 
Just an update. Fiddling with the details now, almost done. Had to crank out a few more last night. The screenies are shot in FSX SP1. I took out SP2 because it made the sim run like a total hunk of crap. Have to do a Kiwi, too.
 
Allrighty. The Marlin tanker kit is up at FS.com.martinfiremarlin.zip . For some reason I have not been able to upload here, so if some kind person wants to load it into SOH's library, go for it.
The naval Marlins are almost ready. I have to keep adding repaints, VX-6E boat last night. The boat works great in FSX SP1, no beef with the prop discs. works excellent in FS2002/204. Heck. It may even work in CSF2, has any one tried that?
 
A wee update. the Mil Marlins will be heading for upload in a few hours. I keep getting distracted. added another VP-40 boat last night,
The Marlin tanker did 357 downloads in 24 hours! The only questions I have are- is it working OK.And how is it flying? Thats one I wonder about, as I set up the config file for my hardware.
How does one go about uploading to SOH,. Is that a special clearance? I'm cleared to 2 levels past 'Q'.
