+Wrench Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Hmm...BuNum decals will be a bit of a stretch, as only 2 were built (at least that i know of). But, hey, decals is EASY!! Well, I have the Max file for MontyCZ's A-1H around here someplace (he was kind enough to send to me when I asked for some changes in his old model, which now has more meshes, folding wings and someother goodies -note to self: finish off the rebuild, write readme and re-release) It could probably be used as a starting point wrench kevin stein Quote

charlielima Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 An "Exploding Cigar" would be nice. I wouldn't complain about the horse power. :ph34r: CL Quote

Rangerdog Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Two prototypes of the Skyshark were built. Great idea for a logical follow-on to the Skyraider. Not a success as turboprops of that era were underpowered and unreliable. Not enough improvement over the in-service AD to warrant the investment. One was / is at the Planes of Fame Chino museum.
