I was going through some of my old discs and found this...It is a F-4N that Crab02 was working on. Has working RF probe and the correct ECM gear. Pretty nice aircraft, I think.

Funny Pete I was just flying that the other day too. I wonder if Dave will let you release it?

OOH! OOH! OOH! RELEASE! RELEASE! PLEASE!

 

The -N is my second favorite, (next to the S), and this model looks top-notch!

It still has a few issues, and he is a stickler for details. Maybe someday :wheelchair:

Isn't this the airplane?

Nope, That is simply a "B" model with shoulder intake EMC painted on. The model above has ALL necessary ECM equipment on the aircraft.

That was the first mod C5 and I did together, made it in a PC Simming magazine too. But as pappy said, Crabs N is better.

Just goes to show how far we have come--5 years ago, painting on the ECM fairings was adequate.

It sure was, considering we didn't even have ECM 5 years ago. Still one of my favorite mods we did.

Agreed, I still like that Marine skin with the black tail and VW codes.

Could be, hanging under the belly in the form of an SUU pod. Although I

have read somewhere recently the Navy/Marines were a bit wary of the

damn thing on the belly.

I think the N will need to be redone...

 

thin wing issue - remember this model was/is sourced from the E model.

I remember, Dave. I was looking at Sundowners skin trying to figure out why the wings had issues...LOL. Well, hope all is well with you, anyway take care...Pete
