Sometime ago we put together an Avon Sabre CA-27 package for our Aussie pilots (OK, our only Aussie pilot...Ravenna), and an airfield for them to fly from.   However, we did not give her a complete armament, which included special pylons to carry the AIM-9 Sidewinder.  Now we're correcting that with a new DP, pylon set and 8-second timed AIM-9 missile.   She'll  be ready for posting soon.  Wink

The Nationalist Chinese F-86s also used this setup to combat Chinese MiGs over Quimoi and Matsu in the late 50's.

You know we (Bub & I) enjoy spoiling you, Michael!  It ain't everyday that I create a custom pylon BGL and DP for a bloke downunder, Sunny Jim.   Grin

I actually managed to sneak up on a MiG-15 and downed it with this weapon.....it takes some practice, like the FW190 timed rocket in CFS1.

I've just uploaded this package and it should be up for download in the morning.

The Avon Sabre aircraft and home Williamtown airfield are available here:

Just tried her and the result is  Cool.
A very sleek look for one of my favourite aircraft. Many thanks Tom!
Of course, the Avon Sabre wouldn't look nearly so good without Bob's wonderful skins.
