You just gotta love those T-33's.

On this date, 27 July 1972, the McDonnell Douglas F-15A Eagle (Serial Number 71-0280) took to the air for the first time over the desert at Edwards AFB, California. (As a side note: today is also my wedding anniversary) 46 years later, with thousands of sorties flown, only 4 have been lost to enemy action and it's air to air combat record is over 100 to ZERO, the best of ANY combat aircraft in history!

Real nice, Kevin...Ant's walkways are off just a little. I redid them to more accurately show how the should be. Also...they should be lighter. This is pretty fun. Haven't compared notes in a long time. Pete

Something like this maybe? The CORECT walkways are grey, not black.

U.S. Air Force Lockheed F-104C Starfighter, flown by Captain John Christopher, Call Sign Blue Jay 4 from the Star Trek episode "Tomorrow Is Yesterday".

It's amazing what a little TLC can do. Don't remember where I got this but it needed a new paint job. 4 hours worth of work and PRESTO!!! Something worth flying.

The Rarest of the Rare...an F-4G Phantom II of VF-116 Black Lions, circa fall 1964...a squadron that never "officially" existed since it was commissioned by mistake and then countermanded almost immediately, but not before a few aircraft were actually painted, including this one, Modex 610, BuNo 150645.

Early morning sortie... An Air National Guard F-102A Delta Dagger of the 196th Fighter Interceptor Squadron based out of Ontario, California, circa 1969.

View File T-45A Goshawk skins This is a replacement for the T-45A Goshawk skins that have been around for nearly 10 years. I felt they needed to be updates. These skins have flaws that are inherent to this aircraft, so I apologize. Other than that, I hope you guys enjoy... Regard, Pappy Any questions or concerns can be sent to me here...

God I miss Hi-Vis colors....TA-4J of VF-126 "Bandits" during America's Bi-centennial 1976.

Not something you see very often...A TV-2 T-Bird of Navy Advanced Training Squadron TWO-ZERO-ZERO, NAS Kingsville, circa 1957.

The Japanese have some pretty awesome color schemes. An RF-4E JASDF.

Another view....sorry

And.....a T-45A Goshawk flown by the modern Flying Leathernecks.

Finally, a T-45A Goshawk that looks like a T-45A Goshawk....

Awesome aircraft . Looks like something out of a Thunderbirds TV show...

Watashi wa kikoku shite imasu!!! (I'm returning home!!!)

So...something like this? The bump mapping on this SUCKS. It was done in 512 x 512 so all the detail is really off. But...we'll see.

No...early 70's....around 1972

Completed the Hi-Rez TK 3W A-10A. Downloaded Spectre8750's A-10 Full Pack. Decided to not release this as his has everything needed to Fly the Warhog and more. But, I did make these for me since I do love colorful aircraft. I removed antenas that were not on this aircraft when it flew. Also the chaff/decoy dispensers under the wings. Came out pretty good I think...Pappy

Sometimes you just gotta have FUN!!!!
