Just bubbling this one to the surface ...

... Since it came up in a different thread.

'hope it's still progressing - and for those of us who can read French, voici le thread du progrès...

Sorry to be the pestering one, but how's progress? This is probably my most awaited aircraft for FSX right now...

I was wondering the same thing. I know they have been busy with many things and if I'm correct, they diverted time/resources on a couple of other things including the Alize. Based on the Etendard and Alize, I am confident that the end product of the F-8 is going to be a true winner and favorite in FS models. Now it's just a matter of having patience and hoping for a wonderful surprise (as we got with the Alize!).

I'm hoping to see very soon this elegant-big-powerfull naval plane.
FSX really need this important navy fighter.

Hi,
Thank you! I really appreciate such message : the 'sader is truly expected!!
Regarding my work, unfortunately I didn't have time to work on FSX . The 2 or 3 things I did these months were not really time consuming and the F-8 project still need important workload to be reach a beta stage.
The exterior model is one of my main painful point as it still need a lot of work : not huge pb but many part to be adjusted, mapped and painted...Very very time consuming to me...

So the good news is that the project is still alive, but the bad one is that it depends a lot to my real life free time...

Regards,
Sylvain

Hi Sylvain! The most important thing is that this PROJECT is not died

 

[Stefano Zibell]

Good news indeed, she's still on the way! If you feel confortable with it, there are many talented developers here that i'm sure could help you. Of course that's entirely up to you, your project after all.

Regards.

Hi!
It has been a very long time since I gaive some news on the RFN's Crusader project!
The main reason was that I had no news to share, as 2015 was a really bad year for my FS projects...
But 2016 is a different year and it seems a better year!

Since few weeks now Bernard Juniot (who did the beautiful Alize) joined the 'Sader team and took in charge the external model : he gave a huge boost to the team and the project.
I let you make your own opinion with these 2 screen shots from FSX

regards,
Sylvain

Sylvain, I had been wondering about this project very much lately and of course, I have been following it since day one. I am very glad to see the project is moving forward once again and the new external shots look great! I'm still very much looking forward to eventually flying this model.

 

[Stefano Zibell]

Great news, she's looking good!

 

[SiR_RiPPER]

Yes!

I was hoping you guys would be able to keep it going!
