Cag40 The French did have both radial and turbine Tracker Firebombers. How ever I don't know if they still use them or not.

Hey Uncle Milton, im just wondering. Do you plan on doing the radial CDF tankers and maybe the French (Not sure if they had a Radial version or not...) and ConAir (Radial and Turbine) ones? I dont think there are many other tanker variants of the foreign kind that are much different. Of course i can be corrected.

If you have pictures, I will see if that can be done with minimal effort.

Meanwhile, The C1A exterior is ready for the paint shop.

Since no one has yet stepped up for this, do we have a volunteer to do the primary textures and paint kit?

The conair tankers (Turbo and radial) were modded fron CS2F's and S2F-1's (short fuselage and horizontal stabs). Probably better to mod these from the S2F-1 when it's available.

Dave

Edit: I need to correct myself, apparently, the radial CDF tankers and Hemet Valley Tankes were all S2F-1 tankers. I couldn't find any pictures of S2F-3 radial engined tankers at all.

Ah, thanks Dave for that clarification. You are correct. Maybe Javis would consider that.
 
Hi Milton....I have a couple days here when I won't be messing with my truck so is there a way you can PM me the info for the beta so I can test her out a bit? If it's a hassle I'll wait and get it when everyone else does.....It sure has been an intriguing "build" thread!!!! middle

PS....I'll try and get you the interior shots of my truck this wknd that I promised a few months ago......Hey! Wanta make a gmax '57 chevy pickup? HUH? HUH?:salute:
 
I have some great pictures of the CDF radials. Yep they were S2F-1s (TS-2A) I have seen some pics of the first ones landing at Hemet in the Orange and white scheme which were then converted into Tankers for HV.
 
Meet the New Pilot and Co-Pilot

Thank you Mr. Visser (AKA Javis). You have outdone yourself Sir. :applause:

What a great contribution to bring these aircraft to life. Excellent animations. I like how they talk to each other too. :)

Low poly for the excellent appearances and textures. Awesome work!

The new seats look great too, very realistic.

This really completes the C-1A exterior with a touch of class. :)
 
C-1A Interior Artist Needed

Okay all you texture artists, now is the time to step up to contribute. :)

I am close to finishiing up the basics of the cabin interior so this aspect of the C-1A should be done this weekend.

We need someone willing to slap some paint on in here.

PM or respond with your interests please.

Thanks to Mgr for volunteering to do the exterior model.

Hey Middle; thanks for your continued interest. We have quite a bit to do yet before reaching the beta stage. Everything is still a work-in-process.
However, if you want to piddle around in one of the five aircraft in alpha stages of development, tell me which you have an interest in.

These are the WIP aircraft: E-1B, S2f-3, S2Turbo (Military variant), S2T CDF variant, or C-1A.
 
Hi Milton. I wasn't able to post in the forums or even see any of the threads most of the day until a little while ago. I just now downloaded the C-1A a few minutes ago and will check her out in the early ayem unless I get a chance to try 'er out later tonight. Thanks, Milton.
 
Just keeping in touch...

"mgr" volunteered to do the exterior model so I put you in the interior textures slot.

Thank you for taking this one on gaucho; I look forward to your work.

We still have slots open for the exterior and interior work on the S2T-military variant (gaucho?) and the S2T-CDF variant (tankerguy?), and the interior textures for the S2F-3 and S2F-1.
 
Two words - carrier landings. The sudden stop would be enough to cause neck injuries if the seats faced forward.

Edit - Milton beat me to it while I was typing!
