Hi Sir!!! As you back, I dare to ask you, or enlist you, to a new task - A new Nieuport 28. Geezer´s one is unfinished, so a good Ni28 is out of reach, not talking a proper pit! Is there any chance? Cheers!!!

The pit

Emld has a very nice Nieuport 28 here:

It has a fully functional cockpit and decals. v.Deutschmark also made some skins for it.

It looks like Geezer replaced one LOD in Emld's plane.

The Emld N.28 also has a tweaked FM included in my large FM and realism pack for FE2. I did create a very similar FM for Geezer's N.28 too (located in the relevant package with Geezer's aircraft) - but there is something wrong with the prop. disc at certain rpms in Geezer's model - something that I can't fix unfortunately via data ini tweaks (I believe that Crawford tried fixing the prop. disc too but neither of us was successful with that). Anyway, the Emld N.28 is a very good choice.

If this thread must turn into a (very humble) request list, the only one that comes to mind immediately is --- get ready for this one everyone --- the Bleriot XI (of whatever variant, but I particularly like the 45-hp Anzani or later 7-cylinder rotary type).

That one has been vaporware for a while. Needless to say, and knowing myself how much time it takes to tweak things (let alone make models) - take your time fellow modders. Any new items for FE2 are greatly appreciated whenever they are released, but please don't burn out making the models.

Thanks again Stephen for your excellent Tripehound variants - I'm getting close to finishing with my FM tweaks for the three variants and will post under the "Tripe Variants" thread when ready with those.

Happy flying all,

Von S

NOTE: Those with excellent model-making capabilities are more than welcome to tinker with the N.28/28a in the package containing Geezer's aircraft, under the "New Aircraft" thread (p. 25). Maybe the only real problem with that model is that the tga files for fast and slow prop speeds need tweaking, and the dark disc problem (with the prop.) will disappear. Can't say anything more on that since I'm just a mere FM tweaker and ini file cruncher.
