[Flightgear-devel] Model Aircraft projects
Hello, In order to avoid the recent misfit about BlackBird, here is a list of most representatives Aircraft which will be delivered along these coming months. Like the the Blackbird these aircraft where done several years ago, they where flying with FG 0.9.8. In the short term: =Lightning P38-L twin boom aircraft =Lancaster and Halifax WWII Bombers =Catalina PBY-5 Seaplane was in use during WWII , Pacific War, and later on civilian use In a more longer term: = B-17G Fortress (i know that Jon Berndt is waiting for it) = P2V7 Neptune Lockheed (French version) This do not take place instead of the French Air Navy Hangar project , i am working on, but the French Air Navy project is a long term project because most of the models are to be done. I hope that could help. Regards -- Gérard - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits. Just data.

That's good news. Looking forward to trying them out.

Greetings Detlef Hello Detlef The P38 on my side is done i just have to clean the 3D model, to reorganise the directory structure , and to make a texture instead of the that one which has been stolen to a similar MSFS model. The FDM which is an old JSBSim version must be converted (I did the same kind of work on the Blackbird). You can see it here http://perso.orange.fr/GRTux/P38-L.jpg I scheduled to release it by the end of the first week of July (that year :) ) But i can do it and never submit it to CVS, waiting for your model, which i guess will be your usual high quality model (you proved it before). Among these models, the Aircraft which will need the most important work to do is the B17 (sorry Jon).

If you are willing to take contributions we could work together. Greetings Detlef It's bound to happen that there will be multiple versions of the same aircraft, perhaps even using the same FDM, with flight models being improved over time, as well. Which one, if any, of the aircraft models gets included in the base package should be a democratic process. I think more and more sites will pop up with aircraft apart from those in the official base package, which is great news. Where possible, cooperation on a specific model is great. But, when different FDM are used maybe that is not possible, but it's great to see information about a specific aircraft being shared, so that any models built are made based on the best information available.

Don't get me wrong, your work is far ahead of mine, the model isn't complete nor textured or animated. It is no big thing for me to stop working on it and wait for your P-38.

Because , i know, the most important work is to collect and gather the documentation, and, you have done it. But my proposal remains, i can hold mine :) Regarding your project i feel glad , about that coming B-26 , it makes me younger , very younger , when i was making flying scaled models , i remember i spent a lot of time to make it, and to fly it on circular fly , (no rc command, at that time, but very expensive with radio tube) only two iron wires with an handle.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Model Aircraft projects
Any luck on a flightsim or xplane converter? Even the old planes for flightsim would be a great way to get a lot of free aircraft. And that plane format is pretty well known.
