GeForce,

makes two of us. Probably something wrong with the filename, but the strange thing is that I checked this topic earlier today before I joined this place, and the shots were there, but when I just came in to comment on them, all I can comment at are the red "X"'s in the small squares.

There we go !!! I see the pictures ! Cheesy

Well, the plane looks amazing and the parachute effect is good !

The plane on the other hand has some weird back wheels. Would take at least one life-time to clean them so much until the start to shine ! Grin

Or is that a rim style ? I bet you got them from your local Auto-Zone Wink

Viktor,

The main bogeys are like that in real life. The tyres were impregnated with either alluminium or titanium, i cant remeber which, to deflect heat whilst the aircraft is at its top end of the flight envelope. Also, all electrical connections on the aircraft, were made of gold, for the same reason.
When she used to land at Mildenhall, she used to sit by her sheds for about 30 minutes, cooling down and leaking fuel all over the place as she contracted back to her normal length.
Habu has created an outstanding model of this aircraft, and every detail is perfect.

Amazing shots, alittle dark in some of em, but ads to what the enemy sees! Tongue

Not my type of plane, but great anyways!
