Guys, I've seen Hamish's work on Kittyhawk 3009 and even at this early stage she looks like a real winner!

Hamish, it's about time someone did what you're doing. Great stuff! Keep us all posted, I know I'm looking forward to the day we can do a real WoW fighter flypast on FS.



B) If you need any pics of ANY Kiwi warbird fighters (and a few Aussie ones too) just email me and I'll see what I can do.


GO DUDE GO!

Brilliant! Meantime don't forget that other AI package I did for Wanaka (wan001.zip at AVSIM.) It has a few of the Duxford Collection flying in.
But I agree, it would be awesome to have a WOW fly-in sometime.

hey just to keep u posted NZ3009 is looking bloody good and just so everyone is aware this NZ3009 is painted in her current colours at moment not the RNZAF colours but i will get around to doing it in RNZAF colours but i think this repaint may even beat tim wallis's spitfire lol it is all finished except i have to paint under the wings but apart from that she is ready to go and there should be some screenshots off her up here soon and should be some with spitfire as well oh and zack do u have any close up photos of the brietling fighters logo and the lion with wings logo i think that is the logo of the old flying machine company ray hanna had just so i can make my warbirds a tad bit more realistic and with the p40 there is really realistic sound with it and she loves doing beat ups past the crowd at wanaka on my flightsim lol

Okay dude, here's the best I can do.

The OFMC "Flying Tiger" logo, from Gerard Morris' 1994 book Warbirds Over Wanaka (apologies for the flash):


This is the best picture I can get from Ian Brodie's book of the 04 show with the Breitling Fighters logo:


Hope these help. Maybe a screenie or two of '09 soon? B)

hey everyone just to keep u posted the zero's wings are about 10mins from being finished and the p40 kitty hawks undernieth the wings is about 2mins from being finished and the mosquito is paint in nz2308 colours which is the one that glynn powell is building at the moment and i have james mckay helping me with that at the moment and i have just found the next warbird to do that would look awsome next to the spitfire and that is the bf109-g10 that was at wanaka in 1996 i have found a good model for flightsim to do it on so this looks like the hardest warbird i would have to do but i will do my best to add another brillant one to the collection
