There are Hercules sounds by Harry Follas. Don't know how realistic they are but I use them.

Thanks BB..
Been there.. got that and it happens to be one of the 3 Alpha released but cheers anyway. The Alpha model does have a pannier too ;-)

Simon..
Yep.. been there, got that too plus the subsequent 2004 update as the original is for 98/2000/2002.. something like that. Of course.. if we DO take the Halton's.. you'll be adding your own sounds anyway ;-)

Keep it coming though. There HAS to be somewhere I've not looked ;-)

Hello Mate :wave:

I'd not been on that model site but the other I had. As it happens.. 'Red Eagle' is winging it's way through the good services of Parcel Force as I type.. ordered it a couple of days ago ;-)

Just hope Red Eagle isn't Parcel Force colours.

Dave

Pete Watkins did an excellent "Red Eagle" paint for Alphas Halifax (By the way the makers plate says it was a Halifax VII
not a Halto) IM running Follas' Hercsnd and its loverly -- Just do be in a rush to climb real fast its a dog!!!

By the way The paint is over at the Pond if you want it

Leif

The LAMS paint that Alpha did doesnt look right -- as I said I have see a dark coloured photo, a very light (looks like white)
and an obviously natural aluminum Halifax with LAMS.

Hiya Leif :wave:

Yep.. the original sound plus '04 update is the best I've heard yet. Perhaps I really AM too used to hearing Merlins of late to appreciate them ;-)

I thought I'd seen a 'Red Eagle' somewhere but didn't try the Pond :doho: Serves me right :lol: G-ALEF was a Halifax C Mk VIII.. RAF Cargo/Transport rather than a Halton (fully civilianised) but that model is included with the Alpha release (C8) so is fair game ;-) Tks for the HU on it's whereabouts :thumbsup:
