    possibly both, but maybe depends on the year. Did some research on 111th from Texas. And I thought they changed colors. But turns out that colors were wrongly interpreted from blac&white photos. - Which leads to repeating mistakes over the years .

    Guys, i have a dillema. So the IAI Arava could transport cargo, but also deploy paratroopers. Now unlike its main inspiration, the Nord Noratlas, The arava's door that was used to deploy paratroopers is on another door that was used to load in cargo. Now i'm not sure, But i don't recall seeing a mod that has an animation, on top of another animation. Now i want to ask you, Which do you want more? The cargo bay (Only used when its on the ground, the arava couldn't open its cargo bay door midair from what i know, mostly eye candy), Or the paratroopers door (Can only be used for deploying paratroopers)

    Hello All, It is great to see new members contributing to this awesome community. I wish I have the time to work on projects and even play the SF2! This thread is to thank our long time community member, modeler, and a great friend 'Logan4' I have to look up the original modeler for this beautiful F-5E (on the other computer), so far the most accurate (test photos). I did some modifications and worked on the templates. Logan made all the necessary accessories (fake pilot) for the various air forces/navy/marine/private contractor. His F-5E fuel tank is being contributed for the IIRAN Mirage F1... Thanks to Dave, Fates, Erik, MK2 and all the people involved for keeping this webpage alive and available all these years... and many more years to come! Thank you.

    10 April 1994: At the request of the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR), two USAFE F-16s strike Bosnian Serb miltary targets outside of designated safe area of Gorazde. While the UNPROFOR reuest targeted tanks in the area, the F-16s were unable to engage those but destroy a command post and several military vehicles. While contemporary news accounts state US or USAFE F-16s in the action, they most likely were F-16C Block 40s of the 526th Fighter Squadron, 86th Wing like the pair shown here

    not bad at all. and i dont really like the pre war/early WW2 stuff generic advice for bare metal.... you got a good start with the panels. but every one will be at least slightly different due to weathering. first off, put your panel lines at the very top of the layer stack find a pic or two of metal online that you like and that matches the plane. then, start making layers. use portions of the metal from online, and have diffent layers for different segments. you dont have to have 200 layers for 200 panels, have 3-5 layers for 3-5 shades of metal across those 200 panels then, depending on the metal used , apply a blueish or brownish tinting above each of the layers you made. reduce opacity by anywhere from 80-95%. but most of all, play with it. experiment, see what you like. as a few instructors once told me, we're to show you A way not THE way. if you figure something else out that works better for you, do it!

    possibly both. many ANG squadrons broke squadrons down further into flights, with colors for each. its been noted in a couple of A-10 and F-16 squadrons, and i've seen several F-4 squadrons do it given the practice fell out of favor over time, i think its much more likely for the Mustangs

    It was supposed to be an intercept mission, but a combination of ground fire and other MiGs killed them before I got into range, so I had a free flight to just cruise around the Korean countryside in 1951.
