WIP for Veltro's Hudson...Coastal Command late 1942.

lol, if Veltro had done a Ventura some wag would've asked for a Hudson !

Thth devil will finD work for idle handth to do...see I'm typing with a lisp now.

C5 is working on the FM. When that's ok it's back to Veltro for release.

Hawt is fine, fast has it's place but you can't beat sloooowwwww. Thank you.

That was awesome ! Loved the tunes too. Cheers.

Doesn't matter if you've got one, one hundred, one thousand or five thousand posts...it's not a competition guys.

Like everyone else I'm really enjoying the super hi-rez pits. The only annoyance for me is a personal one, the great big font size. Doing the Alt-D shuffle is a bit of a gamble, was shot down in my F-4B by some unseen joker. The furball was intense, just like on Sid's map screenie. Only at the debreif screen did I see it was a Mig-17 that had sent me West. Sometimes it's good to go back to basics and just enjoy SF2 as is, no fancy planes or weapons. I'm having a blast with it.

Very cool shot there Gr.Viper...I like that one.

Good work Mike.

All the best. 40 eh, well think of that as basic training for the rest of your life cos it's supposed to start at 40

False, not this year but when I was seven I saw him once...looked awfully like my Dad. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The person below me is wondering when this thread will end.

Bring it on Herr Kaleun ! Your VIIC will be no match for my Hudson V especially when I get a couple of Fido's in my loadout

Glad your back Vipes me old china !

I guess you've discovered which half is Brazilian by now...

Fast FAC's of Vietnam...cool. Those look super. I'm curious, how much was it for a Fast FAC in Vietnam, I've heard "Ten dollah, ten dollah" but that was just in the movies Seriously though, those are a definate must have for WOV.

Just the thing for a quick jolly in bad weather out over the Atlantic in search of the U-boat menace.

Yes, Merry Christmas to everyone at CA. I do like Saywhat's "Merry Christmas you bastards" Coming from an Aussie that's a proper compliment !

Absolutely nothing wrong with that viewpoint, Server. I feel the same way about milk, coffee, tea, hell my whole shopping list...I have it already but I still go out and buy more This being the good old t'internet it's very easy to put your virtual foot in it, we've all seen far worse. Don't worry about it. I don't think you will be on TK's christmas card list though

I must admit I feel a slight shame in not being able to speak another language. We did French and German in school, with the option of Spanish. We never took it seriously and treated it as some kind of chore we just had to get through. Wish I'd payed more attention. I'm impressed with the level of English that's displayed by a lot of members here and it's kind of humbling.

I think those drawings are pretty darn good too. Much better than I could ever do. My drawings of anything tend to resemble the tracks made by a drunken spider. Keep up the good work. You shower nude in school ? How bohemian ! We had to keep our cozzies on in the shower if we'd been swimming, or if we'd done PE. Oh and we had to get changed in cubicles, none of this locker room malarkey you see in films. They wouldn't let us shower nude, and that was right through from first year at secondary til we were sixteen...and no-one at our school ever did anything remotely sporty if they stayed on in sixth form. Anyhow, as I said before, really good drawings. I wish I could draw like that.

Yes I know. Also missing it's twin pitot tubes on the wings. No belly tanks. Only two cannon not four. It's also got the extended tailpipes of an FAWMk8 & 9 but the screwdriver tail insert from earlier marks. To be honest I don't really care...I'm just glad it's on it's way. Never had you down as an el rivetto counteh Hinch....
