Id prefer the Concert Adrian , Love Bic's songs and with Dave and Tim , ..one heck of a concert ! ..... I may have to plan for the next tour , must be hard to try and enjoy yourself at a Winery

Ian, if you have the Razbam model how does it compare? I have the Razbam model and after a very short time put it in the inactive folder. Tim sure has talent. Mom's still hanging in there!

Don , I do have the RazBam , to get it working in FSX you need to change the prop texture for starters , but they do have all the single seat variants , i would have to reinstall to compare , the sound package for this one i have used the A2A B377 sound , think that was one thing RazBam scored on .

[AlisterC]

Please be sure to let us know when you see it come out Ian. I'm a fan of the naval version too - in fact my 1/48 model was the naval version

[Ian Warren]

Will do Alister and best i had better install the RazBam if only into FS9 to check out the sound file and a few other details .

[Ian Warren]

Albatross Alister , I held off posting the USNavy release , i had to do this waiting for Jan Visser's Photoreal 412AK









These guys Complement each other so well!

Piglet's Spad doesn't like my FSX - the textures on each option come up black. I'm rather disappointed!

You have to read the 'readme' very carefully It might do that if you don't follow this part of the install guide:

6) File copying. To keep this download tidy, and easier to up/download, I included the common files in only one texture folder, the default "texture" folder. You will need to copy these common files to the other texture folders
a1_01_spec.dds
a1_02_spec.dds
a1_03.dds
a1_03_lm.dds
a1_03_spec.dds
a1_glass.dds
a1_glass_lm.dds
a1_panels.dds
a1_panels_lm.dds
a1_panels_spec.dds
a1_reflect.dds
That "texture.cfg" file thing doesn't always work for me, hence this manual copying. I know it's a real pain....

Ian that looks great! Let me know when it's available for download Thanks for posting!

[kcgb]

that repaint is already available for download, its for the A-1H model

[AlisterC]

Great! I've found it now, cheers

[Wildbillkelso]

Jan did an awesome job on this one! As usual...
He's simply a texture magician. I owe him a lot, because his Sabre made me join the repainter's guild.

I haven't been firing up FSX for months now, but Piglet's Spad is such an outstanding and nice to handle aircraft - too bad that it's FSX only. My FS9 just went too big to be abandoned...

Cheers,
Markus.

Thanks for that Albatross, but it hasn't fixed my problem! Very disappointing. Mind you, as it appears now would probably be great as a CIA aircraft!
