WIP's, External tex mapping and 99% ext. model done. Still got to make ton of ordnance to hang off it!
And of course the second half, int. and VC

Tim, that looks fantastic! :salute:
One small request, if you will allow, for a clean version. I saw several in action making strafing runs in the Ashau Valley with no ordinance on the hard-points. It was a Beautiful Sight.

Very nice Tim, really looking forward to it :ernae:

Looking good Tim.. I love that plane !

Piglet, excellent choice of avatar picture. Does that mean we can expect a nice red little Sword Fish from you ?

Appart from that, this Skyraider looks awesome. Can't wait to fly it. Great job, as usual, mister Piglet :salute::ernae:

Massive single engine and a load of metal. What more could one want in an airplane. Looking forward to flying this one. Thanks Mr. Piglet (and that goes for all the other great planes you've done)!

**stansdds** · January 29th, 2010, 03:39

That's looking really nice, Tim!

Tim, Your talent is overwhelming! You are good at what you do. Thanks a million.

**Piglet** · January 29th, 2010, 06:53

Thanks all:ernae:

Does that mean we can expect a nice red little Sword Fish from you ?

Thinking of making Faye's Redtail

Piglet

It looks fantastic.

Please do a clean model.

I used to see them at Eglin and Hurlburt all the time back in 60s.

The vast majority were clean. There were times when they were loaded with ordnance also.

Nice Tim!!!

**Bomber_12th** · January 29th, 2010, 12:29

Excellent Tim! I know this one will be flown quite frequently on my machine. A grandmother of mine worked for Douglas in the 40's, out on the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

ffice:smarttags" /><st1:State w:st="on"><st1

lace w:st="on">California</st1

lace></st1:State> coast as a riveter on the tail assemblies, so with various stories throughout my life, I have always had a soft spot for the Skyraider and am looking forward to experiencing this one in the sim. She has always been proud to know and learn more about the amazing service career that it had, and how even today there are many still flying.

It is not my place, nor anyone's except for yours Tim, to make this request, but I agree with VCN-1, that the option to fly an example without ordnance would be greatly preferred by me, and I would be forever grateful for it! The work you have put into this airplane looks very accurate and exceptionally well done!

**Cleartheprop** · January 29th, 2010, 12:55

Looks so beautiful! Cant wait to "test flight" her ! :ernae:

***Navy Chief*** · January 29th, 2010, 13:15

Oh YES!!! Piglet, you never cease to amaze me! Unbelievable details!!!

Any of those will be good, especially if YOU model it.
Thanks for the info, good luck with the finalization of your current project :ernae:

**Seaking055** · January 29th, 2010, 14:57

As for the underwing stuff, I'm gonna do what I did for the Super Tucano. Have the stores appear, and disappear with visibility tags. Just remember to alter your fuel/payload properly!
P.S That dang gear took almost a week to get right!
