Sea Vampire prototype

Hi

I'm converting Roger Hardy's Vampire source file to Sea Vampire but to upload the result I need his permission -- the email address I have is out of date -- does anyone have something recent




thanks in advance

I guess you can say you tied and give credit to him in the upload.

permissions

I guess you're right -- it is an old file -- the same applies to the panel maker, Les Stone, he hasn't left his email anywhere as far as I can see, just FREEWARE only

The Sea Vamp not ready yet - still got vc to do

Repaint WIP goodness ...

It's rather amusing to read through the FSX forum, with it's heart-breaking story of "we have moving carriers - now they can pitch AND roll!"

We've had that all along - Collins HMS Ocean in a gentle swell in the English Channel (except that sky is just too blue .)..

Sea Vampire

Haven't uploaded for quite some time -- but have just uploaded my conversion of Roger Hardy's Vampire F3 source file to Sea Vampire -- look up the tailpipe when starting up -- something Uncle Tgt taught me. You'll need a Sound file as I didn't include one to save weight.

Hope you like it

Following my fixation on 'firsts' on aircraft carriers -- here's my impression of the Sea Meteor making its first landing on HMS illustrious in 1948






cheers

Baldy,

Nice pic...a little close to the edge there, mate!

 

[baldy]

yeah well these early jets could be a bit tricky -- what's the old saying ? 'any landing you walk away from is a good one'

Just some paint WIP...

Morten's excellent Meteor repaints cut & pasted, then new markings slapped on.

...and a later paint job for the same aircraft...

Baldy,

If you need me to include any updates in your packages, just let me know. I did that for some others of yours already.

Hi hurricane 3

I've had a look at this - mine does move - not great but alternatives I've tried don't seem any better -- feel free to make changes
