Thanks to Hagar, the MH-47 from Area 51 now has water landing capability Shocked

Here's some shots of a little special ops mission using the MH-47

Getting briefed and picking up some "extra" crew for the op.

Dusting off to make the rendezvous on time.

Here we are......a little early, might as well set 'er down idle, and wait.....

.......I wonder if the fish are biting?

Thanks a ton to Hagar for taking the time Wink

I uploaded this mod to the SimV server.....awaiting approval

In the meantime.....

Also, this could be applied to any aircraft by changing the coordinates. There is a tutorial that tells you how to map the coordinates here: http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=3d+lights&x=23&y=13 (fifth one down) this tutorial is for 3D lights but, the concept is the same

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Pure genius Shocked

Standard equipment from now on will have to be an Ugly Stick Cool

#2 Chuck, pure artistry.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
