Looking for Simon - Firefly´s designer...

[Wilches 1,172]

Folks, did anyone here ´heard´ about Simon? I would like to contact him for he (or someone else) makes an upgrade on Firefly V´s 3D (one of my favs). I have an screenshot with a correct side-view pasted over a game´s profile to see exactly what´s wrong with the shape. Basically, the wing planform is OK, but the wingtank/radar pod should be a little shorter. The real problem is the fuselage. The whole tail needs to be lifted up, so doing this almost all the profiles issues are solved. To finish , a bit more pointed spinner and the upper canopy frames (left behind for unknown reasons). The wing bomb pylons must be placed more closer to the fuselage - they´re too close from the rockets rails. All in all it´s a Beta model. I´m plenty of illustrations, photos and side views if anyone want it. If I had a 3D Tool I could make it by myself, but it´s not the case. Looking for Simom!!!!!

You could PM the guy - it should send an email to him also.

 

He'll be glad to hear from you no doubt

By the way, the ´Fairey-Youngman´ flaps doesn´t work in that plane . Would be nice to have it as it was... :yes:

Simon left the community some time ago. Hence, you'll note the Firefly is listed as a "Beta".

 

I wish he'd pop back...that Avrocar could use some tweeks too
