Hi Bobrock,

 

As promised, I asked my "old timers" workfriend about your pit. As far as they can remeber, they said me that :

 

N°1 is the RPM engine indicator in percent: one needle from ten to ten (the smallest ?)and the second for unities;

N°2 is the weapon selector;

N°3 is the bombing computer (in wich you can enter wind direction and strenght for example);

N°4 is a cabine pressure altimeter, used for a kind of pressure regulation.

 

Hope my poor english was understandable and usefull for you.

TX again for this bird.

Thank you VERY much for this info, I guess I owe you a beta tester spot :pilot:

All pleasure is for me !

This would be a honour testing your bird, as far as I only use SFP1 and derivates (XP and not vista at home !).

And I also think I could use it on an old campaign project with French wings, but see later.

You can also contact me on MP if you need other infos.

The IV-P will also get a proper pit, but I want to finish the skins first (as you can see it's quite raw now).

So here's the question for the experten: I found pics of the plane both in dark and light blue, is the darker one an older scheme? When did the navy switch colors?

It was a small plane, that's right. Fitted to land on small sized French carriers (Foch and Clémenceau).

But I must admit I've never seen short legged pilots... :grin:

Great job, very usefull the "recce" version in fact...

I'm asking friends at work. As far as I remember, I think they change the scheme at the same time as the Super Etendard (SUE) when this one was upgraded to Super Etendard Modernisé (SEM). Maybe around 1991-1992 but I have to confirm.

White and blue was the old scheme, two greys the new one.

 

Bobrock, just send me your email adress via MP, I'll search in my photobooks this night if Madam has no fun...

I'll save FastCargo the time, but while yes alot of us are in high anticipation of this aircraft (I'm a bit interested myself) but bobrock, among other people have things going on in Real Life so they can't always get to it. When bobrock has updates he'll post them.
