I always appreciate fellow members sharing. For some reason it didn't come up in Google which often DOES give me SOH posts.
Andy G43 just made me aware that this is in our forum. As I mentioned before for some reason Google search only show our forum as a source it seems when it feels like it. I am going to get in the habit of a Warbirds Library search for each one of these also. Thanks Andy G43. Here is the link to the Library

Over the weekend was a C47/DC3 which has already been reviewed by me above in detail for all possible versions. I have never heard of this one: Travel Air-4000. I searched our Warbirds Library FIRST not wanting to be beat up by Huub (just kidding-REALLY you know I am) that it's in the Warbirds Library. Well, it kinda is: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d=198&id=11140 this is a beautiful repaint for Bill Lyon's Travel Air package (tamo.zip) which sadly only worked on FS9 because of old gauges. I found at AVSIM This 1929 Travel Air biplane, Magic One, based in Orcas Island, WA. The original model is by Bill and Lynn Lyons has been modified by Bill Schulz of The Cielo Co. for FSX (distributed with permission). This version is for FSX only and uses some default gauges for the virtual cockpit--there is no functioning 2D cockpit. Here is the link for it: https://library.avsim.net/sendfile.p...ftp&DLID=94298 So you have the model for FSX and a repaint in our library.
If you would like to have the scenery and airport(s) for the San Juan Islands off the Washington State coast, Blue Sky Scenery has you covered. Here is the link:

Yesterday the calendar highlighted the Spanish-built Messerschmitt Bf109. I searched but only found payware and a couple freeware German built versions. i didn't find any in the Warbirds Library by searches which surprised me because i thought I had seem them before but probably for CFS2 more than likely.
Today is the Grumman Mallard. Milton Shupe and team created it first for FS9 and then an FSX version not portover. Here is the link to that post:

I also found a lot of beautiful repaints in the Warbirds Library as well.

I went with the Flight Replicas model personally, mainly because of some lovely Jans Kee Blom repaints in the Library. As I've mentioned on these pages before my interest in aviation stems in no small part from having spent my 6th summer on this planet under a sky full of Merlin-engined aircraft (the filming of the Battle of Britain aerial sequences took place where I was spending that summer), which has left me with the ability to identify a Merlin engine 5 miles distant and an affection for the aircraft in the film.

I have been able to be in a real B-17G and B24C so I know what you mean. How fun. Though 20 years ago I cherish the memories as you do. I also spent 4 years flying with the 91st Bomb Group Virtual on here from Bassingbourn on many missions in real time. I also helped develop the Flight Replicas B-24 and created the 461st Bomb Group- Virtual flying out of Italy. Hoped to have more guys interested in flying with us but oh well. Ce' la Vie.
Some pictures to show what we are talking about.....
The Spanish Hispano Aviacion HA-1112-M1L Buchon by Flight Replicas. If you are wondering about the desert; The Ha-1112s were mainly used in the Spanish Sahara (Western Sahara since 1975).
Chers,
Huub
I knew, just knew you guys would find something I missed LOL!!!
Today, July 21st is the Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero. Our Warbirds library entries are almost all for CFS2 or repaints for WOP Shockwave payware. The only 2 FSX entries are static. The only freeware I found for FSX is from Flyaway Simulation and FSFreeware. Just Flight, PCAviator and others have payware versions.
I would imagine that you could find them in DCS which like CFS2 makes sense. It's a warplane.
The calendar's picture is of Ed Maloney's Planes Of Fame Museum in Chino, CA. Planes Of Fame restoration is known for their accuracy.
Obvious not a very popular model for developers. Even the A2A/Shockwave Mitsubishi A6M5 is not a genuine FSX model.
Nevertheless a nice model....
Cheers,
Huub
When I was young and 1/72nd plastic aircraft were popular, my friend and I used to create actual squadrons of aircraft. We'd save our allowance and then go to the hobby shop on the weekend. When we got a little older and mowed lawns (I was a caddy at the country club) we had the hobby shop owner who I think considered us his best customers, buy them by the case for us from the distributor and he would split the discount with us. I had I remember a book on all the markings of the "sentai's" or squadrons and would buy after-market decals to make them accurate not 12 aircraft with the same markings. We did the same for all of the geswaders and staffels of the Luftwaffe aircraft and groups and squadrons for the RAF, USAAF and USN carrier markings as well. Airfix had really nice line of models. Probably built them all for WWII. Hawk, Monogram and Revell in the USA. Ah, the memories LOL!Obvious not a very popular model for developers. Even the A2A/Shockwave Mitsubishi A6M5 is not a genuine FSX model.

The last two days were repeats again. When I turn the page on another exciting aircraft I will post.
Today's calendar featured the Yakovlev Yak3 Russian Fighter. I can't help it but it really has never interested me but I will probably get beaten up here for saying that especially from Ivan or Petrov LOL!
I don't have the Yak-3 (at least I don't remember having it) so I can't comment but seeing your post made me look at my Mig-3 to see if there are any differences (from a novices standpoint). Other than the canopies, they appear quite similar. The Mig-3 was considered a "high Altitude" fighter while the Yak-3 was a low altitude "dog fighter"_ with high power to weight ratio. I may have to look into the Yak.

I'm not aware of any genuine FSX Yak-3. But I do have the Captain Sim FS9 version, however never tried it in FSX.
When it was released ages ago it was a absolutely stunning model. After all these years it is still a great model.
The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3 was actually a completely different aircraft than the Yakovlev Yak-3. The Mig-3 was one of the first Russian modern fighters (although not really a huge success) and was used in reasonable large numbers in 1941. The Yak-3 was a development from the Yak-9 (Yes really! This is not a typo), and entered service in 1944.
The Yak-3 can be regarded as the Russian wooden wonder as to save rare materials a lot of plywood was applied in the construction of these aircraft.
Sorry the screenshot is taken in FS2004, but as you can see still a great model, with a lovely VC.

Thanks Huub, I can always count on you to give us more insight. Really good info. We'll see what's next tomorrow.I'm not aware of any genuine FSX Yak-3. But I do have the Captain Sim FS9 version, however never tried it in FSX.

I missed posting yesterday because I had a really busy day programming my Christian Radio programs for the upcoming week. The Lord always comes first but I am getting caught up today.
The calendar highlighted the Lockheed PV-2 Harpoon, developed from the Hudson and Ventura. In our Warbirds library is the Milton Shupe and team Gold version with all the repaints. Below are two screenshots from the Rikoo download of the same. This is definitely a beautiful aircraft and FSX/P3D native.
I wanted to fly the PV-2 Harpoon but it was operated for such a short period of time that I went for it's successor. I downloaded the Free version of the P2V-5 but the vc was just too simple and it would not work at all in P3D V4.5. I went back to Googlin' and found that Virtavia had a version of the P2V-7 for P3D V4.5 and V5.1+ and it was only 20 Euros at Simarket so I Paypal'd it downloaded it. I like it a lot with my first examination. The panel is very accurate according to the Flight manual I was able to find pdf parts of and it has a lot of nice animation as well as liveries from different country's navies. Nice all the way around. They just released a new version but unless it is "Accusim" I couldn't justify $40.00USD for it. I'm very happy with this one. I may fly it to Reykjavik tonight where I found a real photo of VP18. Being a VP vet (VP40 OPCON) from NAS Glenview I am going to look forward to it. I was able to install the RFN TACAN and RADAR into the panel.cfg following their instructions and they both operate perfectly.
The weekend on the calendar is the SBD which I believe was already reviewed before.
"Later dudes!"
A real stick and canvas fly by the seat of your pants aircraft for sure! I checked our Warbirds library first and the only entries are one for CFS2 of an old Alphasim and some repaints by Jan Kees Blom for the 42 MSFS new aircraft so I went Googling and here is the links of the complete7.9MB package created by Thanasis Delizisis and Ppanagotis Delizsis for FSX.

I also found a 97th Anniversary one created by Jean-Michel Castagne at All Flight Mods by a Google Search and found his complete 3 model package at Simviation at this link:
https://simviation.com/1/download-fi...p&fileId=43275
Brian Gladden designed this first for FS2002 and then converted it to native FSX. The link is in our library here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...26948&catid=37 as well as a lot of repaints. Some of the posts also say its at Flightsim.com but with their new website revision a lot of old links referenced in posts or online don't work. I was able to find a number of files by a search over there for "Noorduyn".
This is the Navy version of the AT6 Texan and the Canadian Harvard. A2A has a beautiful Accusim version I own and there is also a really nice freeware package at Simviation here:
https://simviation.com/1/download-fi...p&fileId=57830
I have never found an SNJ-5C for P3D4, which had a tailhook for carrier ops. I know I could likely jury-rig a non hook model in the aircraft.cfg file, but does anyone know of a hook equipped SNJ for P3D?? Eric Hertzberger made one for FSX but doesn't work in P3D4.
I just downloaded the SNJ for FSX Acceleration that Eric Hertzberger posted at Simviation and played with the model but no joy. Because even though Eric says for FSX Acceleration, he did a "port-over" not a true FSX native model with a separate mdl interior so with other models I have been able for myself to do a conversion to P3D V4.5 of a portover and use a 2D cockpit that was supplied and all the animations were there, after conversion though it shows up in the sim with the Wirlaway 2D cockpit none of the switches work so I guess if you want to fly this SNJ it's going to be in FSX. Too bad that A2A didn't make an SNJ-5 model with the tailhook even if it was a "Click" in the Accusim hanger to add it. I'm going over to their forum and see if anyone else brought this up to their team. More later.........
