I do have the CS Weapon add-on. Had it since release, but can't remember the last time I actually had it installed :worried:

I know there is a freeware weapons pack to be had - Iris use it on a couple of their models. I have the files but so far not had the time to look properly. I don't think it does more than drop an object, anyway, so not much hope of seeing how accurate they are.

I probably didn't explain well enough - I meant in a proper combat sim! A Beaufighter such as Dave's in a combat sim would be nice.

Glad you like the Beau :thumbsup: It's one of my favourites. I actually prefer it to the Mossie :worried:
Mr G, wash your mouth out with soap. The Mossie will always be the most bestest aircraft in the entire universe !!! :Dance:

I remember you having 'fun' with it :shhh:

:lol: :lol:

Having just dug it out (it was already installed.. pre-requisite) and looked at a few of the repaints I have, I wondered if a couple of them weren't wrong but they're not. I'm referring to the fuse registrations btw. On fighters (for example).. you'd have ZD-B on one side and B-ZD on t'other. Duxfords B17 is another.. A-DF/DF-A. Beaufighter NE831 is marked up PL-O on both sides and this is no error :-O Not sure why but phots show the paint to be correct *-)

There.. a slight diversion but still on topic :lol:

...and Dave's is certainly far better than the Airfix one...
