Back in the day...Fox Four used only one aircraft in their campaigns that they had not designed internally.  That was Jerry Beckwith's fine F9F2 Panther.  Smiley

...

These days she's in need of an update and has been for some time.  Cry

Well, I finally got around to addressing it, and JB sent me the original source file to work with.......great, except it's in Gmax and I work in FSDS.  I have Gmax but really do not want to learn a new system at this stage of the game, so I converted the file from gmax to md3 to dxf to fsc.  The file lost a lot along the way.....but at least I've gotten a start.  But it's gonna be a long, long haul...my the workshop staff is scattering like chaff...next the elves will be wanting a raise.  I may find that this one was an upgrade too far.  Cool

If I don't get frustrated and chuck the whole project, she'll get a rescaled pilot, a shine, some new threads by Bub, a new DVC and corrected right flap animation.  Cheesy
