V2.3 of the Sea Fury Project is well under way.

Here's a new Nav/Radio, plus ECU.

Groundhandling, landing and roll rate have also been improved. Still a bit to do though.

Much of this particular part of the Upgrade has been heavily influenced by work done by Hobby, in particular it was his suggestion to use the Nav/Radio from the freeware Alpha Firebrand. I just have to add a Nav 2 and do some more testing next.

Steve Beeny's got a new Website up with tons of great RNFAA stuff including his repaints for the Sea Fury and news on many other projects including HMS Victorious and the new Blackburn Buccaneer. :welldone: :welldone: :welldone:

I've helped Pete out with a very small amount of research for his re-paints and as a result I've been very priveliged to have a
look at some of the ones he and Steve have done for the project.

Trust me folks,they're superb and as historically accurate as possible.I'd say it's possible for us Sea Fury buffs to fly one in our favorite livery.

Many thanks guys,they(and V2.3) will really be worth the wait. :thumbsup:

Hi Mark,

Steve and myself have just decided to release the Full Painkit with this next one (V2.3)

There are plenty of great ones not done yet. :dancer: :dancer:

Daniel has kindly provided some AI for the lone Carrier in the Med, HMS Triumph.

So there's not that much work to do now, hopefully we're on the finishing straight. Just one or two afcads to be straightened or re-written to get all the 11 Flights in the Detailed RNVR Flight Plans to function.

BTW anyone know if this is an FS9 World first - Flight Plans accompanied by AI? I know FSX does it a lot, but it has a much more sophisticated game engine.
