Downwind66 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 What a "hoot" and fun to fly. Went to turn on the NAV lights, I not only got those but 8 missiles also appeared under the wings! A Grumman F7F-3 Tigercat. Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downwind66 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Wow, would you look at that! I worked a long time trying to get rid of the drop tank on mine, and now look at what you have! That is one bad looking F7F-3! You're on your own with the fire fighting! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downwind66 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 What was your download for this aircraft, Rick? Actually, I just found my F7F-300 so I'll take a look at it! Charlie - I am good to go now. It is a Milton Shupe download, one from FlyAway, the second from Simviation. Texture on the first download wasn't that great, I found the one on Simviation, much better in the texture department, but this download had a large drop tank. What I did this morning, I went in on in SOH and found Milton Shupe's original download that had a provision for an ICON that would drop that tank. I worked on that and finally got the ICON on my panel and it works in dropping that tank! Thanks for offering though! Jan, as usual, your Grumman F7F looks very nice indeed! Thanks for responding to my thread! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peer01 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Congrats with that Icon, but NO tank dropping over my house you hear! :mad: Sent you a PM about an old friend btw. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Yeah, that is the one I use! I was going to mention the ICON for drop the tank! ;) Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Congrats with that Icon, but NO tank dropping over my house you hear! :mad: Sent you a PM about an old friend btw. I got the PM, thanks Jan, lots of people in and around Tuscon with the same name, I will continue hoping for the best! And your house is safe, well, maybe not, I will need that tank on the plane just to reach your house! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Yeah, that is the one I use! I was going to mention the ICON for drop the tank! ;) [ATTACH=CONFIG]208672[/ATTACH] Yep, that's it Charlie, but I am using another panel, and it did not come to me easily! I found the icon entry, but took me awhile to find the folder to support that icon! It's done now, no more ugly drop tank! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Here's the panel I am using. I originally had this panel on my P-38, then the first F7F-3 I downloaded off the FlyAway site had the same panel, I was used to it, so decided to stick with it for this download!
