There's also this version of an A-4H available until WOI is released: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=1230 And skins: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=1343 http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autom...p;showfile=1226

You have to change each member of your flight or squadron individually.

If you're doing a modern campaign by all means use the Cypriot Mi-24 skins included in my Mid-East Hinds pack.

I think that the Malvinas map is for post-war use as the Mount Pleasant airbase was built after the war. I use it for Phantoms & Tornados on QRA, and use Edward's Falklands map for wartime missions.

Ooh, that could have saved a lot of trouble and a big thread! Is it worth getting Marcello's permission to use his skins to create 'new' Argentine Skyhawks to replace the withdrawn ones?

I'm very disappointed in all of you. I finished my post with a Blazing Saddles reference and no one picked up on it. Shame on you for missing out on one of the funniest movies of all time!

This should whet your appetite for the upcoming Falklands mod. http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?...522#Post2148522 AFAIK it will be freeware and is supposed to be out in the new year, but exactly when is anyone's guess.

Try typing King Kong in the file library search at Avsim....yeah its for FS2004, but this is in the readme...No "it's mine" claims or rules. Do what you want with it.

As one of those who was refused help by Diego on some mods of his pilots I was naturally disppointed, but I have to respect his view, and it is, after all, his work that he can either release or not as he chooses. What I will say is that this was all done by pm and he was polite as he says in his post. Of course it would be great if he brought his work back to the community, but he has said his piece and doesn't want to, so that's that. In respect of the original problem of the lost files, I think that could have been handled more discreetly by C5 and USAFTMTL (by pm and email) and then none of this would have blown up, although I fully understand that it was on C5's site and Don can do what he wants there. So, if that's all: Meeting adjourned. Oh, I am sorry, sir I didn't mean to overstep my bounds, you say that

I'm thinking the last third of 'Blue Thunder' although that was LA, not NY.

I think they used Stingers in Hammerheads. At work now so I can't check on my bookshelf.

Major update to the list, because I got Bill Norton's essential Air War on the Edge for a birthday present, so I've added a few more planes that weren't in my original sources. Thanks to the A-Team's Beta release policy we now have: Beechcraft Bonanza Yes No (skin on the way thanks to Wrench) Beech B200 Super King Air and RC-12 Guardrail (Hebrew nickname: Tzufit (Thrush)) Yes No. If any one wants to try an IAF skin, these are painted in overall grey (FS3635) like US Army machines, black radome, anti-glare panels on the nose and engine cowlings, and chrome spinners (from Air War on the Edge - Bill Norton p346). Actually, this is retty much the skin that comes with the plane anyway! Mil Mi-8 Yes No . A skin for this captured aircraft has been done by Michael Pearson for the FS2004 Mi-8 and can be seen at Avsim if anyone wanted to use it as a basis for doing one for the A-team's bird.

Actually, Namer means 'leopard', and we already used that for the fictional Israeli F-5E. I do like Arye though, so if no one objects , that's what we'll use. Mazeltov triplethr3at, you get a virtual crate of Maccabi beer and a bowl of falafel

Very nice indeed Jim. As soon as someone decides on a name I'll update the list.

The big ship ate the little ship?

Excellent work on the speechpack. I asked about doing this a few years ago over at SimHQ and got the answer that it wasn't possible. Might be appropriate for a Falklands mod too. So the impossible has been done. I guess miracles may take a bit longer (German, Japanese, Italian, Spanish, French, Korean, Chinese, Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi, Parani, Dhimari etc etc).

One for Wrench to answer methinks. He's done a fine job with various versions of the Mustang and Corsair so far.

Thanks for the update Jim. Great skins. When I saw your post I thought you had an Israeli Kestrel for us And no that's not a request or a gimme gimme post.

I'm having a sort out at home, and since I'm never going to find the time to make the models I've been hoarding away (and the skinners and modders make such better ones than me that I can play on my computer), I've started posting them on ebay. They're pretty much all 1/72 scale modern aircraft/helicopters, but I've got a few 1/144 planes and 1/35 military stuff to post too. I'm also going to put up my comic collection too when I get round to taking pictures of them all. I go by allenjb422 on ebay so drop by and make me an offer I can't refuse - no horses heads please!

Whatever happened to those Eastern Front maps anyway? (sorry for going OT)

Many happy returns guys. There sure are a lot of birthdays around this time of year. Maybe something to do with the long cold winter nights nine months ago?

Thanks Sony, that's just what we needed to know. It would be useful to have these instructions in the Knowledgebase so they're readily available.

The F-4G pack is up at Checksix, along with a new weapons pack. Thanks a lot Mirage Factory. Presumably these will be coming to CA too?
