Classic British Flight Sim

Hmmm....I would love to see some shots of the belly on those planes as I am having some major problems trying the get more than one colour to play nicely together on the flat underside area just fore and aft of the wings. It seems like there is a UV map problem in there and things get 'stretched' an...

He he, I downloaded that last week! I linked it to my F.3 Tornado sounds instead of the puny Lear and it sounds much better now!

I just wish I could add 'dancing diamonds' to the back. :dance:

I have it too and it inspired me to attempt my first ever repaint :o . I spent 12 hours on it yesterday and I have most of it done, just the little bits and bobs and text to do now. :welldone: It's looking pretty slick and I very pleased with my first attempt at repainting. I will post a pic or two ...

I use Dropshots http://www.dropshots.com/ to host all my photos for linking into forums. It will allow you to set up albums and add captions if required.

Very nice! Well done! :dancer: I must show my ignorance of this mark now by admitting I had never heard of it before and had to go Googling images and text info.

There always seemed to be a greasy smear across the window at kiddie nose height too for some reason! :...

Anyone know if this is correct: Decision Height Warning Lights - Green (Above) Orange(At or Near) Red (Under) Thinking about other British military AC with warning lights that I have in my hangar that sounds right to me. They look something like this .... V O ^ ...or as near as I can get with text....

No Golfballs indeed. They were dismantled several years ago....probably more than 10 years, and replaced with the current set up. So that's why I couldn't find them on Google Earth the other day when I was trying to show them to my Canadian wife! I guess you lose touch with some things when you are...
