Regarding a hangar large enough to fit the heavy metal inside, GKABS had made this one although I'm not sure if the final version got uploaded or not: https://combatace.com/forums/topic/94678-b-52-hangar/ Also, you should be able to avoid the hex editing to create differently skinned terrain objects by organising them into sub-folders with names. In the screenshot below if you were to copy, paste and rename the A-10 folder to 'A-10_S_2', or something like that, drop in the new skin bitmaps and add a new entry to the TYPES.ini, you should be good to go without any hex editing required (I did the exact same for the two 737-200 static models):

100% agree with you Wrench, I'm a big fan of having the option to permanently place specific static aircraft models especially at airfield locations where only that type of aircraft is ever found (e.g. I don't want the game engine to spawn random types of aircraft on the Janet ramp at my Groom Lake base, I only want to see Janet 737s that I've placed there) in addition to using the game engine's airfield parking feature. I've rattled through the downloads and some mods I have installed to draft the following list of what is available at the moment. Note that I've listed what I could find in the modders repository as these could easily be converted into static terrain objects with the authors permission of course: Aircraft in the Downloads Aircraft in the modders repository Type Aircraft Author Type Aircraft Author Airliner Sukhoi S100 RussoUK Bomber B-70 FastCargo Fighter A-10 Banidos team Bomber Beaufighter Mk.1 cocas Fighter AV-8 Harrier II Banidos team Bomber Tu-2S KnightWolf45 Fighter F-16 Banidos team Fighter A-10 Sparkchaser Fighter F-4E Fighter CF105 FastCargo Fighter F-5E TMF Fighter F-103 FastCargo Fighter Hurricane RAVEN Fighter F-108 FastCargo Fighter IAI-Finger Banidos team Fighter F-18 Super Hornet EricJ/James Glendonnews Fighter MiG-17 Wrench?

I've got a load of 3d models I've downloaded from the internet over the years that I'll check through, but often figuring out if they're actually ripped models or not is a nightmare and hence a no go. I noticed that in the SF1 downloads there is a sub section for Static Aircraft under Objects, however I couldn't find a similar sub category in the SF2 downloads, is it worth having a new one made there for these to be gathered in one place?

Dusted off some old higher resolution templates I made for the stock A-10 from 2007, working up a few skins I never got round to finishing. Euro 1, Snow Hog, Peanut and Flipper.

Early morning Janet back to McCarran

Joint Strike Fighter was mine I think, although I also played F-22: Air Dominance Fighter around the same time, shortly followed by Eurofighter Typhoon and SFP1.

Welcome back UllyB! Some great suggestions on the list so far. A few aircraft that spring to mind that I think would thrive in the SF2 engine: de Havilland Mosquito (Pasko's Mosquito was great at the time, but would deserve a higher poly model) Textron Airland Scorpion (sadly never made it to production but a perfect fit for SF2... stubby little aircraft with a tonne of hardpoints for weapons in the light attack / recon role)

Had some issues with the aspect ratio too, if I remember correctly sometimes the game resets it in the Options.ini but setting the file to read only should stop the game from messing with it.

Hope you're feeling better soon @ravenclaw_007, the number one important thing is your health, modding can wait.
