Looking good! If you have time to do a couple of USAFE units, it would be awesome for NF4. The 496th and 525th FISs were the first USAFE untis to equip...

Sweet Pappy! .good:

When skin(s) ready, couldn´t we put all the

updates for the F-102 (cockpit, data.ini) into a

a complete pack?

Can you do the dirty panellines a bit more streaky?

Streaky wouldn't look right as they were kept pretty damn clean all the time. After a flight most Deuces were cleaned up from nose to tail. 102 Crew Chiefs took great pride in how they looked because of their status as being one of the hot fighters in the USAF. Pilots loved that plane and everyone wanted to fly that thing. My uncle Tom remembers guarding them in the 50's. He said it was amazing the amount of time crews spent just polishing the skin of the aircraft. Was a shame they had to camo them up later in their career. It looks good Pete. I wouldn't change a thing.

Well, if everyone involved is a signatory to the Freeware Accords (sounds so official) I don't see why we couldn't release it as an 'all in one' (model, FM, skins).

Well wouldn't anything leaking while flying become streaky due to the wind, though?

That's IF it leaked. Either way they would still be cleaned up.
