Warbirdsim P-51 Update

***WarHorse47*** · March 13th, 2010, 09:50

I'm seeing a lot of new WBS P-51 skins the last few days.

Are there any plans to post them to the Add-Ons Library for the rest of us?? :salute:

Keep up the good work, but don't forget your fans...

You'll have to wait, Petie 2nd, BUNO 44-14151 was a P-51D

..and now for something completely different...

**LCBORDEN** · March 14th, 2010, 01:21

Dang, I'm busted...Thanks Bruce...

I was hoping to sneak that request past everyone....Yeah It (Petie 2nd) was a -D- model,,,has anyone converted it over to FSX...or has anyone done it for the Flight1 P-51D which I think is actually the Aeroplane heaven version??? In either case, all of you pixel pushers as Jankees likes to call himself, do such amazing skins...I find myself simming on autopilot just so I can enjoy the outside views... Keep em coming I can't get enough...

Current exchange rate makes this almost $46.00. Most peolple can't afford this!

Petie can be found here .
Should work with the A2A D model!

Great skins again.

**Lateral-G** · March 16th, 2010, 11:11

Still having trouble finding all these new skins...........are they uploaded anywhere or just for personal use?

**bruce448** · March 16th, 2010, 11:28

I will be packaging up mine tonight and will be posting them here tomorrow.

***jankees*** · March 16th, 2010, 13:43

Nothing flashy this time..
I discovered thta the 370th FG changed from P-38's to P-51's in february/march 1945, and one of them was this nameless 43-12457, which previously flew with the 353rd FG. I have no idea who flew this aircraft, so see it as an hommage to all those not-well known pilots who still put their life on the line on a daily basis.

I'll try and upload mine over the next few days..

Stephan, why are the stripes on the wings so far outboard?
I've seen this position on MTO aircraft, but not on ETO planes?

It's a mistake due to haste on my first version and a lack of attention on the adaptation for FSX.
Thank you for pointing that...

Users can use the wings from your "5Q" or "6N" series.

Stephan

I just wanted to stick my head in and say your continuing efforts are appreciated guys, I just wish I had time to install them all and fly the blasted things!

Keep up the great work.

Bruce, that is gorgeous, and very sharp! There will be, hopefully one day, a specific model made for such a scheme to better fit it - it has long been in the plans, but other things have trumped it. Besides even the famous Mantz P-51C's, there were a dozen or more, very interesting B/C model racers that came out of the late 40's as well. If you can, try getting the intakes, coolant doors, and pitot mast red as well, in order to complete the look. Really looking forward to it!

As requested... an Ill Wind to follow shortly....

Finally bought the P-51, mainly due to the amount of quality repaints I've seen on here. It looks great, flies great, and it looks as if I've got plenty of great repaints to download, too!
