JF DH-98 Mosquito released

[JensOle]

Brilliant JO .. never seen those before .. incredible photos, pleased you posted those

More pictures if you follow the "mosquito" link in the left corner. In norwegian, but the 14 pages of mosquito related pictures shouldn't need any translation. Many pictures of F.II "H" as I have painted as well.

Another low level picture:

[Ian Warren]

Looking through those photos again JO , the ocean is a great study, really churned up, I'm going wild with ideas for a new painting/drawing ..... sorry guys one for the wall

[AussieMan]

Well, Pat, you were on the beta team.

Yep, I missed it as did the rest of the team. Should have looked harder when I was checking which covers came off. Will make an appointment with OPSM next week .

[WarHorse47]

Sooo... when are we going to see all these new repaints???

[AussieMan]

Well, Pat, you were on the beta team.

Bazz, posted over on the beta test forum.

Martyn I have to say I like this Mosquito, done the sound swap as I had odd sound but its sweet! Wonder if there is the possibility of a gunless Mosquito for the BOAC ball bearing runners?

With regards to paint schemes was there any full rap around camouflaged versions of this mark?

[WarHorse47]

The current line up of Mosquitos from 333 Sqn is as follows:

-F Mk.II DZ700 "H" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Leuchars in the summer of 1943

-FB MK.VI HP862 "3-O" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Leuchars in the spring of 1944

-FB MK.VI HP904 "3-E" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Leuchars in the autumn of 1944

-FB MK.VI RF590 "KK-H" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Banff in the spring of 1945

-FB MK.VI RF831 "KK-G" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Banff in May 1945.
Part of 334 Sqn from June and flew with the squadron back to Norway on the 8th June.

-FB MK.VI RF769 "KK-P" of No 333 (Nor) Sqn, B-flight based at RAF Banff in May 1945.
Part of 334 Sqn from June and flew with the squadron back to Norway on the 8th June.

I'll pack them all up (including the first two) as a package covering the Norwegian Mosquito war service.

JensOle, did you ever have a chance to pack these up and make them available for download??

Thanks

[JensOle]

Finishing them as I type :-)

Al Nix (oldpropfan) here at the forum made a RAF Banff scenery to go with RAF Dallachy. I know he released the later, but did he release Banff? I got it from him for giving feedback, but it would be great if it was available for everybody

[JensOle]

the package has been uploaded, enjoy!

[hairyspin]

Cheers JensOle. downloading now!

Cheers JensOle. downloading now!

Hey, SOH Staff.. Not fair.... Give the rest of us a link...

[JensOle]

My word, they went in low over the North Sea! Also reassuring to see how many of these unguided missiles ... miss. Just like in CFS3.

It is truly amazing to see the RP rockets come of the rails in all kind of directions.. it also shows how close they needed to get to the ships before firing them. It must have been a rather bad design regarding how it was stabilized, but it was probably cheap and easy to produce.. To be fair so was they probably very often fired outside their "parameters" with both a lot of G forces and directional forces due to the very nature of diving down steep fjords and or manoeuvring during attacks.

Terribly sorry WH, I just went to the Warbirds Library and clicked on New to find it...

Or look for add-ons by JensOle, or FSX Add-Ons / FSX Skins / FSX Military skins - WWII....

Could someone please post a link....I can not seem to find them???? The last FSX WWII Skin entry is for the A2A Texan?

I have been hanging out for these "mossie" repaints to buzz around Norway.

Regards,
Tim...

[Timmy74]

Please ignore my previous post....

The link has appeared now in the download section.

Thank you very much,

Tim.

[Timmy74]

Great paints and thank you JensOle.

However, I am getting this issue with P3Dv3...? How would I fix this issue please?











Cheers,
Tim.

[JensOle]

Just as it should be, read the readme :-)


From my readme:
"Just "H" and KK-P of these aircraft had the exhaust shrouds installed. For accuracy they should be removed when flying with the other aircraft (or they will show up pink..). The shrouds lowered the max speed and they were removed and replaced with standard Merlin exhausts on most of the Mosquitos of the strike wing squadrons for higher top speed. "

The shroud on/off is covered in the readme from justflight.

Sorry my bad! I did not read the "Read Me" file.... Pitty they are pink because I find this model ugly without the exhaust covers!!

Excellent work.

Cheers,
Tim.

[JensOle]

As we have been discussing above so are the cut out for the exhaust a bit off and I hope JF will try and remodel this important part of the model. But at least I prefer the realism of flying with the shrouds off. In fact I think the Mosquito looks a bit better with them off :-)

I'm trying to research the "personal" Mosquito of Station commander at Banff, Group Captain Max Aitken. I know it was in the Special duty scheme A with red spinner and had the grp cpt pennant on the left side under the canopy. A series of pictures of Aitken and the Mosquito were taken in February 1945. But I have not seen any of the rear fuselage covering the serial and codes. The serial should be HR366 and some sources mention that it was coded MA-01. Does anybody have any info?

[Ian Warren]

JensOle, I have couple books here I have to go through, the name is very familiar, both books 'Mosquito Log and Gestapo Hunters' may have something.

[huub vink]

Jens-Ole,

I have only been able to find the pictures you already mentioned. As you already mentioned, they don't show much details of the aircraft.

Sorry,
Huub
