In the Indian Air Force tender for 22 attack helicopters, the AH-64D beat the Mi-28N. Expect to see these in Indian Air Force colours soon .

Thanks Dave. Can you do me a favour by sending the message to him on my behalf? I will PM you what has to be conveyed to him.

Got my copy of this book recently. Its titled "Downward, Four Green" and its by Vice Admiral Vinod Pasricha (IN, Retd). The author was the former CO of the No.300 Sqdn "White tigers" , which during his time, was flying Sea Hawks. More info on the book here This the first attempt by an Indian author and a former Naval aviator to write an entire book dedicated to an aircraft. Its quite a big book and contains various section as mentioned in the link. It is like going back in time and actually witnessing Sea Hawk operations, right from its induction in the Navy, the troubles faced ,crashes, acquistion of German Sea Hawks etc. The author has gone painfully into detail in each & every section. I ended up being the first fellow to order this book and got it neatly autographed by the author himself .

Yes, I know that he doesn't do stuff for SF anymore and my query wasn't about pestering him for SF mods. He hasn't been active here since 2007. Having worked with him for modding his Hawker Sea Hawks into dedicated Indian Navy FGA.7, MK.100 & 101 versions way back in 2006, I had his e-mail id, but for some very odd reason I can't find his e-mail id in my e-mails. Anyway I wanted to get in touch with him since I have a message for him from someone who actually flew Indian Sea Hawks. Just wanted to get this message through to him, that's all. It'd be great if anyon who is touch with him could PM me his e-mail address.

Has anyone been in touch with Bunyap lately? If yes, how to contact him? This is regarding something important about his 3D work, specifically his Sea Hawks.

Stary, :blink: :cool: Where did you get that PAF F-6C from?

Kevin, Thanks a million, got it work . Added those lines in the data.ini and the antennas on the fin & nose have now been removed. It now represents an accurate IAF Type 75 MiG-21bis

I never really figured out how to use the hex editor. Would really appreciate if someone could look it up using the hex editor, please?.

Thanks for the reply Spillone. I tried looking for those in the data.ini, could not find them.

A few days ago, I remember a screenie where the antenna(s) on the tail were removed from the stock F-4E model( teh tail was of TuAF F-4E IIRC). Is it possible to do the same on the stock MiG-21bis model? I ask this because the Indian MiG-21bis models lacks the antennas on the tail & under the nose. Will it be possible to remove those antennas in the stock MiG-21bis model using the same way as the TuAF F-4E mentioned above? Actual IAF MiG-21bis SF MiG-21bis model

English. The HAL built MiGs & Sukhois had/have english letterings. The early MiG-21s, I believe, had russian letterings in the cockpit.

RIP

lindr, nice work. How about converting those ground attack FLoggers to SF2 ?

No doubt, it was a great gesture from the PAF pilot and it has been appreciated here. I guess he was doing his duty when he followed ordered to shoot down the civvie plane, he acknowledged the fact that the Beechcraft kept on rocking its wins to show that it was civilian and he wasn't happy to of having done what he did. But then, there is also the angle that they were waiting for the aircraft to show up and shoot it down. I think its a complex issue and its best not to take sides on this issue. The actual truth, only the PAF pilot knows and the people who lost their lives when the Beechcraft went down. Wreckage of the beechcraft that was hown down by PAF F-86s

NIce work ace . How about releasing those skins as a pack?

Carlo, could you please try modding an Indian B.MK.66 from this? just an idea. Great work on your Cranberries

The IL-38 is looking great Veltro. Nice work

Happy Birthday Kevin. Wish you all the happiness in the world.
