Honest , Steve if Piglet keeps going , he is going to run RAZBAM out bizz for the FSX model anyway , this one will be fun in multi-pllay with firing guns .

RAZBAM's models always seem so full of promise, but more often than not they are just a spot-on exterior model with iffy flight dynamics and #### poor functionality dry.gif

Was hoping that perhaps A2A would take a stab at the Skyraider, but we shall see...

I Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike! I hope he does the "fat-face" A-1E model, that's my fave of the Spad.

What a cool model, now I know what I'll be doing tonight! Suggestions for soundpacks?

The spad uses the mighty Wright R-3350 Radial 18 Cylinder, you could use a soundpack form a Connie, DC-7, Superfortress,..

Im keen for a multiplay with some spads later on today ,..Ian what you reckon thumbup1.gif

Sounds like a good plan , you need go to the readme and replace a couple textures for 014 and the VAF livery . 4.00pm possibly

I simply used the my Stratocruiser sound package , when comparing sound files , it seemed best suited , although it being the larger 28 Cylinder , the sound appears to suit without the spinner off as the others that do use one protecting the baffle off wind between cylinder heads and the pops and bangs off an engine ,least this type .

I,m very sure it will work without acceleration , only special effect .. like gun fire , example will not .
