Still Tuesday in the partition line I think... Returning aboard after a succesful strike on Damascus, 1983.

Like a Timex......takes a whole pile of 50 cal and still landed in mostly one piece...out of gas.

hmmm, this threads quiet. lets liven it up some, low level

Something different than the Su-35. original skin by @bazillius with some modifications by me

Just to be clear nobody is promoting or encouraging any sort of distribution that isn't permitted by the existing licences. Normally in the FlightGear world we respect the creator's wishes - so if someone doesn't want something used we generally won't use it (even if an existing licence would permit this). It's a case of doing the right thing. All of FlightGear's assets are freely available and you can redistribute under the GPL https://scenery.flightgear.org/ - currently 7498 models - e.g. military objects https://scenery.flightgear.org/app.php?c=Models&a=browse&shared=6 532 FlightGear aircraft can be found here https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgaddon/HEAD/tree/trunk/Aircraft/ The rest of our assets are in here; https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/ci/next/tree/ - e.g. low poly aircraft models https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/ci/next/tree/AI/Aircraft/ The benefit to this community is open up the development and to hopefully build something that will grow with the modding community - without negatively impacting it. Remember that ThirdWire are commercial, and in fact I just had a brief look and found these statements here https://fundrazr.com/31YZNe?ref=ab_53zatDj9Npr53zatDj9Npr - whereas any opensource game can keep going all the time that the community wishes to support it. These are the benefits for me and one of the reasons that I chose FlightGear over X-Plane, FSX, P3D - but I'm not here to try too hard to change anyone's mind. Hopefully this will be resolved by having a complete SF2 loader that will allow the entire model to be loaded and flown without any need for modders to do this. Because FlightGear is so open we don't really want to publish something that could be used to cause grief / interfere with civilian flight operations - i.e. the normal multiplayer. It would be bad for OPRF if someone put up a set of AI fighters that decided to intercept and shoot down (or just annoy) civilian traffic.

I hang my head in shame for what our congress is allowing in this administration. With all those so called billions he has and with the full support of the US, this guy can't buy a clue. He's out for himself with very self serving motives. The entire thing is disgraceful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Towers_Istanbul Regardless of the outcome, Trump and Erdogan got pwned by Putin who's gotta be laughing his ass off right about now.

Thank you. File uploaded, pending approval. And something completely different: USAS S.E.5a The 25th AS was the only American fighter squadron equipped with the S.E.5a. They did not see much combat, as the squadron flew only two uneventful patrol missions before the hostilities ended.

Maybe you FM gurus knew this already, but I only recently noticed that: Internal fuel and the pilot (and internal ammo too?) don't change the center of gravity (cog) of the aircraft. The additional weight will always be placed at the cog. Only the inertia tensor (Ix,Iy,Iz) is changed as follows: Ix = (mass_total/mass_empty)*Ix_empty, Iy = (mass_total/mass_empty)*Iy_empty and Iz = (mass_total/mass_empty)*Iz_empty

Lol I'd have to do an F-35C skin first, as the Marines are going for that, but interesting video nonetheless...

Lot of movies are missing: In french, "Indigenes" is not very good, you have plenty of movies by Pierre Schoendoerffer, such as Section 317 which are much better, you also have Capitaine Conan, by Tavernier which is excellent too: In Italian, "La Granda Guerra" is excellent too.

Got inspired to do a VMFA-232 F/A-18E as a What if skin.

Das Boot....epic...one of my fave based on real people alongside BoB Iron Cross etc...top films\series

TK posted this in Sep. 2007 in his forum. See this forum thread: LOD file format. - Third Wire Forums.htm. And I wrote already that he used obfuscation methods later. Just to clarify: I don't want to distribute any assets. I only want to use assets from the game I purchased or assets from this community within FlightGear. For this I plan to write a tool that automatically converts the SF2 data ini files into FlightGear files (Edit: the .lod file itself can be directly loaded into FlightGear via the OSG pluging, so no conversion of lod files needed). Again: no distribution of any assets! I think that's legal within TWs EULA and CombatAce Freeware License Agreement. And I see benefit for Thirdwire and the community: Maybe some will buy SF2 games if they know they can use the aircraft in FlightGear too. And maybe FlightGear can be enhanced to be a fully community driven open source air combat simulator. Then why not use the already by this community created assets? And yes, everybody has access to FlightGear assets. Most FlightGear assets are released under GPL or other "free" licenses. I was told recently, that FlightGear aircraft were already converted to SF2.

I can attest that Days of Glory is a great movie. And of course Das Boot too. Wizard

I absolutely do not confirm that. Even stock SF2 objects use more textures for each 3d model.

Raptors of the 199th Fighter Squadron "Mytai Fighters" from Honolulu, visiting the peaceful Midway Atoll...

And the D model. I took the liberty of using the previous skin to help expedite this skin, but should be okay since gradients don't work well with lettering. Since I didn't have a good right side shot I also guessed that it'll look okay the way it is.

Was being developed as scale model lat in 1958 ish....would have been about 1970s it was planned for

I-15 in Soviet colors.

just something seen while testing, part 1
