"One of these is not like the others!" These templates languished on storage drives for years. No telling what they got up to in the dark.

View File Wolf257's SF1 P-51A/B/C Template Another old Template found on one of my storage hard drives. Good luck deciphering it. This is for all 3 of us that still fly SF1 and would like to make their own skins for one of the most iconic models we have for SF1 but can also be used in SF2. This is a Template for Wolf257's P-51A/B/C Mustangs. The template is waaaay past it's 'Use By Date' and has been lost and found on one or another of my hard drives for years. It is still a work in progress and needs improvements but I don't expect to work on it anymore. Feel Free to improve it all you want. This is a culmination of many peoples work of almost 20 years. This template is in .psd format at 2048x2048 pixels. Credit and Thanks go to: Wolf257 for the model. USAFMTL, Suhsjake, Torquatus, Pappychecksix, Wrench, Sundowner and probably many I'm completely unaware of for the many former templates and skins for this bird. Happy Skinning.

Colorful ROCAF F-51D Skin on Crisis' P-51D (WIP)

I'm considering creating a stand-in de Havilland Venom using 3rd Wire's Vampire and I know there are some physical and FM differences between the two planes. I don't know how to create models. I can't do much about changing the physical differences like the wings except to maybe add some tip tanks to the wing tips. FM differences might be simplier to fix. Any suggestions on which tanks to use for the wingtips? or any other suggestions? I know we have Pasko's Venom and Vampire available and I love flying them, but they are showing their age and have some anomilies in the model. And until someone makes a new Venom available I'd like to at least have a newer model, even if it is a 'stand-in. Any help is welcomed and appreciated. Geary Pako's Old Vampire and Venom. Note the ill-fitting cockpit cover.

Wrench, I found an old plane I put tanks on wingtipss from years ago. I think it's coming back to me.

Gepard, Thanks for the suggestion. The Yak-23 tank looks good. Now I must figure out how to place them on the wingtips. I used to know how to do this but that was years ago when my brain worked better. Geary

A two-seat vampire will be a nice addition to the Strike Fighters' hangar.

I'm interested in your templates Soulfreak, if you care to share them.

Give me a bit of time to look through my files. Seems I did a template of this plane a few years back.

Great job. Thanks for taking the hit for us.

I've felt this way about many planes over the years. First I don't care much for the planes but when I begin flying them I learn a new respect and admiration for them. Currently for me it's the MiG-15. I didn't hate the plane over the years, just didn't pay much attention to it except to know it was at first the foil for the F-86 Sabre in Korea. I have MiG-15s in SF1, SF2, CFS2, FSX/MSF 2004, and IL2. I love flying this little bird. I drool over the DCS MiG-15 and F-86. Might get them, but wish there was a full Korean Air War install for DCS. Recently I repainted Pasko's old SF1 MiG-15 and even with the repainted modified A-4B cockpit simulating the MiG-15 cockpit, I still enjoy flying this old plane. Always some new plane to get to know and enjoy.

I like both. Depends on the mission and how I try to accomplish it. Usually selecting through the loadout menu is enough for me as I don't fly many special missions. But also nice to have best of both worlds. Having a variable preset option in the dropdown menu would be nice.

I recently read Osprey Publication's "Operation Linebacker II 1972 The B-52s are Sent to Hanoi." I also have Osprey's "B-52 Stratofortress Units in Combat 1955-73." Also looked at various sources online. Combined there's lots of information in these sources but can get a bit confusing with information overload. What I'm trying to figure out is Which B-52 models flew in Vietnam? I think the D, F and G models flew there. And which had the capability to care under wing ordnance? I think the D & F models could carry under wing bombs but NOT the F model. Can anyone confirm or correct my thinking here? Thanks, Geary

I appreciate any help you guys can give. Prefer not to be redundant if possible. If you've already done it, no sense in me re-doing it.

Are you saying you've added the pylons to the B-52s for the underwing bombs? If so, are they available? No sense in my being redundant.
