A-6A Intruder, 'Flight of the Intruder' Special Edition Readme   This is a modification of the A-6A Intruder by Monty CZ/Column5, released to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the publication of the novel 'Flight of the Intruder' by Stephen Coonts.     Ensure you have the weapons pack installed.   Instalation: 1) Extract A-6A FOTI file into Objects/Aircraft 2) Optional: Extract Menu file to your main SF/WOV/WOE folder 2) Go fly and blow things up!   Contributors: External model of plane by Monty CZ Flight model by Column5, modded by gbreuder and allenjb42 Damage model by Monty CZ/Column5 Loadouts modded by allenjb42 to try to reflect the loadouts mentioned in the book for the various missions depicted. Skins for Devil 505 and VA196 by gbreuder, based on work by pappychecksix Hangar screen by Wrench, modded by allenjb42 Loading screen - 'Going In Hot' by William S Phillips, depicting 'Flight of the Intruder' author Stephen Coonts in action over Vietnam. Menu music - samples from the 'Flight of the Intruder' movie soundtrack by Basil Poledouris   Thanks to all of those listed above - they did all the hard work and gave their permissions for release, I just packaged it all together - to Stephen Coonts and of course to TK for creating these great games for us to tinker with.   The Devil 505 skin represents the A-6A flown by Jake Grafton and Morgan McPherson in the book and movie 'Flight of the Intruder' by Stephen Coonts, who really did fly with VA196 over Vietnam. Although Morg gets killed in the first chapter of the book (and after about five minutes of the movie), he and Jake had flown together for two years prior to that point, so you can use the skin to recreate some of their adventures before Morg's untimely death. Besides, you can use the A-6B to fly with Tiger Cole!   Unfortunately there is no publicly available Morgan Mcpherson pilot model at this time, so if someone would be kind enough to make and release one I would be only too pleased to include it in an update.   In view of this, the data.ini is set up to use the Jake Grafton pilot available at Wrench's site at http://wrench1smog.com as the pilot, and the default PILOT as the B/N.   This plane is compatible with all of the A-6 skins currently available. You'll just need to go into the decal.ini file within the skin folder and edit it so that all references to the original A-6 model the skin was made for are changed to A-6A FOTI. Check out the skin folders within this download for an example.   Have fun, and good hunting!   Allen (allenjb42) Burton   Any problems, find me at combatace.com, simhq.com or column5.us
