    I was outbound on a SAM Suppression mission with some of the new A-7 skins in DS, and on the way out I saw these. Maybe they were there on a USO Goodwill Tour.

    21 August 1961, Edwards AFB The first intentional supersonice flight by an airliner. A DC-8-43 flown by Douglas test pilot Bill MacGruder dives from 50000 ft and breaks the sound barrier for approximately 16 seconds at around 41000 ft. Mainly to demonstrate that the DC-8 was in fact strong enough to do so. The aircraft was pending delivery to Canadian Pacific airlines, but still on the Doouglas books at teh time of the flight.

    Simple skin pack with a few sets of skins for Navy versions of A-7 Corsair II - A/B/C/E that flew during the air war over Vietnam between 1967-1974. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. To run this mod you need also access to TW lod files from SF2 Series. userlist.ini included covering correct years of use of specific models. Skins cover the years 1967-1974 CVW deployments during Vietnam War. All squadrons year by year. The pack contains skins and decals. Skins sets are made in pairs - two squadrons for CVW for a specific year. I could not find all the correct BuNo / Modex but I am considering this as ongoing work in progress, so one day if I will learn something new there will be an update. Also, not all squadrons have CAG markings, sometimes i could not find info on markings...so I left it, again there might be an update if new info appears. I believe that the pack after unp[backing is around 2.6GB. So make some space for SLUF. All skins, new bump maps, specular, and decals are made by me. report bugs. enjoy. Jarek Hereda. P.S. This is huge, a lot of copy-paste for me, all decals.ini, textur.ini, etc...So if you will find that one decal is not showing up or something...just check first - maybe there is some bug in *.ini file. Fix, post solution, etc... So others can benefit from your fix. I put a lot of effort and time, and checked everything twice..still gremlins can appear. PART TWO - OPTIONAL MOD FILES. This is only for experienced users! who know how to improve the game for themselves, are not afraid of experimenting, and know how to go back to stock ini files if something is not okay. This is based on my mod that unifies USN equipment (300 gal tanks, MERs, TERs etc.) optional mod files include reworked data files - correcting usage of weapons, fuel tanks, etc. adding some specific tanks, and stations for specific launchers adding fake pilot mods etc, additional fake pilot mods (legendary fake pilot mod required!) additional loadout ini files - for a better game experience additional weapons by Ravenclaw to cover weapons needed in new loadout ini files. D704 refueling pod/fuel tank by Nyghtfall from his great A-4 pack.. I highly recommend picking up piece by piece from optional mods, testing, and deciding whether to use them or not. Use the optional mod as a separate mod or as a reference to make your own. ************************************************************* This is freeware; it CANNOT be distributed unless permissions are granted by myself.

    Douglas A-24 Banshee - 9 Squadron, Royal Dhimari Air Force, 1941 Skin Credit: Charles Wow! I've just read that USAAF A-24's survived long enough to be transferred over to the USAF in 1947 who abandoned the 'A' for Attack designation so they became F-24 Banshees!

    I don't think there is an updated one. I've never seen nor heard one being worked on. Maybe Gepard will do one, who knows.

    If it is a problem with the cockpit model, maybe it could be fixed, if a 3d guy is willing to help. If it is an Problem with the aircraft model, it can´t be fixed cause Enrico lost his source file & he left years ago SF modding.

    They wished ! haha Seriously, if they had Ark Royal and their Phantoms and Buccaneers still in service with the Ark Royal, the Argentinians most likely they wouldn't even try to invade the islands.

    Aviation History magazine (iirc) had an artilce of them some years back. Rex's Hangar ALWAYS has something cool!! He's got a new series on the Douglas Aircraft Co. Some of the images are from the Santa Monica location; I grew up in it's shadow. There's one shot of a DC4 coming in to land at Cloverfield, and it's looking at the farm fields where my parent's house will be built in 1954!!! Very cool stuff!!!

    On April 29, 1975, South Vietnamese Air Force Major Bung-Ly made the decision to load his family -- his wife and five children -- into a small two-seat Cessna O-1 Bird Dog airplane. Bung-Ly took off from Saigon and made it out to sea, where he looked for a ship to land on and spotted the USS Midway. Without any radio communications, Captain Lawrence Chambers made the decision to allow Ly to land on the flight deck, even though the plane had no tail hook and it was extremely risky...
