    1. The de Havilland Canada DHC-1 Chipmunk is a tandem, two-seat, single-engined primary trainer aircraft
      developed and manufactured by Canadian aircraft manufacturer de Havilland Canada. It was developed
      shortly after the Second World War and sold heavily throughout the immediate post-war years, being
      typically employed as a replacement for the de Havilland Tiger Moth biplane.
      The Chipmunk was the first postwar aviation project conducted by de Havilland Canada. It performed
      its maiden flight on 22 May 1946 and was introduced to operational service that same year.
      During the late 1940s and 1950s, the Chipmunk was procured in large numbers by military air services
      such as the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF), Royal Air Force (RAF), and several other nations' air forces,
      where it was often utilised as their standard primary trainer aircraft.
      The type was also produced under licence by de Havilland in the United Kingdom, who would produce the
      vast majority of Chipmunks, as well as by OGMA (Oficinas Gerais de Material Aeronáutico) in Portugal.
      NOTE:
      This mod was done during COVID-19 lock down. It helped me to spend my time with out thinking all day
      long about it.
      I never planned to skin this plane, but Kevin and mostly Daddyairplanes upgraded and put it on my
      desktop, so I made a pair of skins using Daddy great one and day by day the skins went 28 (!).
      So the skinpack became a whole repack ...
      All serial numbers are historical ones, but not all the skins, as I can't find Jordan and Syrian  pics.
      I made them looking at similiar planes dressing, but If someone has some references or
      books (like Warpaint n. 123 !) the pack will be very soon upgraded.
      This is a very nice model, mapped like a dog .... so skinnig sometimes it was like a puzzle, so
      I thik that whitout COVID-19 home rest this job'ld never be done.
      WHAT'S IN:
      - a flyable plane
      - 30 skins all around the world (see pictures ...)  Early Irish and Saudi added in V. 1.1 thaks to Menvra!

    4. SF2 Cessna 206H Pack by Wingzero      2/29/2020
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended, plus Exp 1)
      This is a full revamp, for SF2, of the SF/Wo* Cessna 206H "Stationair" by wingzero, originally released in 2010.
      This mod includes 2 skins:
      No.7 Squadron, Uruguaian Air Force (FAU) -start date 1998
      USAF - this is a "What If..." skin, painted to match the T-41s used for USAF training and liason.
      All, if not most, markings are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. As a new 'homegrown' templague had to be created, it's included for skinners wishing to create any other users, or other types of skins. A userlist and loadout ini have been built. Please see the "Notes" section for more details.
      In-game, on the Aircraft selection drop-down menu, you'll find it as:
      U-206H Stationair
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. One mnight also peruse the "Notes" section for things that might be interesting. The original release had NO readme, but I used the text from the SF1 announcement thread. It's included within the main aircraft's folder.
      Happy Landings!

    5. Freeware FS2002 \FSX model adapted by me Russouk2004
      This model is NOT to be uploaded to ANY site apart from here at CombatAce.com.
      This model isnt brilliant but ive spent a long while fixing bits ,remaking bits,altering mapping that used sub objects(more than 1 texture per mesh) as game doesnt support it.
      I will upload a base texture with wireframe and labelled parts in day or so...as I couldnt find any templates anywhere..and I did look...ages....
      Original model by Rick Piper....
      Despite some of the the original readme wording quoted bottom,...this model IS allowed to be shared as its now 100% Freeware,though obvioulsy some rules apply...no back engineering to use parts for something else....just sensible usage.
      Only fair use and NON commercial use is ALLOWED...
      Model used is not bad,and as I pointed out,took a lot to sort it for SF2 usage...had basically to stitch the meshes together,even polys....
      Also included are..
      Pilot and Copilot model...
      Correct seat...
      sounds...
      Low poly Distance LOD
      Also LOD for those who dont want self illuminated lights...(nav lights and nose light) just replace as required.
      Uses Starys Cockpit for the Saab 105,minus few parts I "removed" with ini dance...
      I added some of its performance characteristics where I was able to,limited by my knowledge of the flight data in SF2 lol...
      anyone wishing to better its flight data go ahead...
      also
      Lights arent perfect so feel free to fiddle with them...if you desire.and share results
      This model has no weapons as its a trainer....if required I can knock up some pylons as later versions did have some before it became the Full Strikemaster version.
      any bugs let me know ASAP at CA.....enjoy the A\C and hopefully it well get upgraded....
      usual routine....drop folders into Mod folder and appropriate sub folders.
      cheers

    8. SF2 DHC-1 Chipmunk Pack       2/25/2020
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended, plus Exp 1)
      This is a remake & reissue of the the DHC-1 Chipmunk trainer aircraft first released in 2008 by "Big Al". It has been reworked to bring it more into compliance with SF2 standards, as best as possbile. Be advised, there are a number of issues & flaws; they are enumerated in the "Notes" section.
      This is the full aircraft, with all necessary parts. The skin maps, still in bmp format, have been slightly repainted to allow the use of decals for insignia, 'plane-in-squad' letters and serial numbers. Serial numbers, while historically accurate for the version depicted, should be considered generic in nature. Decal randomizaion is TRUE. As exported is TRUE, a user list has been created. It does not list all the Chipmunk's export users. End Users (tm) are encouraged to fill it in as needed.
      While this is an exceptionally old model, the canopy does work via standard manual animation keystroke (Shift/0 -zero). Expansion Pack 1 is required for the destroyed model (Spitfire). If you do not have it, you'll have to find another to use in it's place.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 
      Please see the "Notes" section for a list of changes to make the aircraft more SF2 compliant, and certain other explinations. The original release readme, from 2008, is included within the aircraft's main folder.

      Happy Landings!
