For anyone in the UK, I highly recommend the Gurkha museum in Winchester.

There's only one way to deal with a caribou nibbling at the hoops!

100% spot on, I saw this at RIAT in 2003, knowing I'd never see it again... http://www.airliners.net/photo/USA---Air/Lockheed-F-117A-Nighthawk/0600507/L/

Epic song, but in the immortal words of Eric Cartman... "He's cheesing his f**king balls off dude."

This isn't usually my type of thing, but this song is massively "summer". Perfect for relaxing in the sun.

Damn Ant, you caught Miss Demeanour! I managed to get G-SABR a few weeks back at Duxford... Unfortunately I was fumbling with my camera as it did a perfect low and fast fly by just before landing By the way, did you have to stop down your Bigma?

Updating the Bombing Range

In addition to the aforementioned drones, there is also Russo's Firebee... http://combatace.com/files/file/406-bqm-34-drone-for-strike-fighters/ -
What you need is a planishing hammer and a dolly of some sort. You'll probably have to work at it quite a bit, but it should do the trick as long as you're careful.

A fortnight :wink2: -
The only way Concorde could ever get off the ground again is if there was a major sponsor backing it. Also, due to the complexity of the aircraft, you would probably need Airbus (the design authority) backing it, and they pulled the certificate to fly a while ago, and have no intention of supporting it. In addition, unless someone has got very deep pockets, I don't see that amount of cash being raised either. For starters they will need low, if not zero time engines, a tonne of spare parts, airframe support and engine support. XH558 has been returned to flight, but then again, it is a much simpler airframe, and they have also gone through various financial difficulties with the project being nearly culled on different occasions. The most you could ever hope for is a fast taxy run, but God, think of the scandal if it does what Brunty's Victor did last year

3DS Max help needed
Jimbib posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Okay, here is my predicament. I am currently working on a max model where all the meshes have been mapped to their respective UV co-ordinate textures. What I'm trying to do however is find an easy way of finding out exactly which meshes are mapped to each of the texture maps. I realise this is easy enough to figure out for the large, obvious meshes (tail, wings, fuselage etc) however it starts to get a bit tedious with the smaller less conspicuous meshes. I know I could select each mesh, do an Unwrap UVW modifier and then hit edit to see which texture it is mapped to, but I'm just wondering if there is a quicker, easier method as there are quite a lot of meshes (over 200 in total). By the way, I am running Max 7 Many thanks in advance. -

Cheers guys! That was exactly what I was looking for. Both of these posts should go in the Knowledge Base. -
