Nice idea!
But does this beast carry the AGM-88?

Hey Mike G,
The release of your new models seems to have gone quiet since your post of 4th Feb, any update for us?
regards,
Steve

Steve I needed to make a couple corrections to them which I've done but we're just waiting on our webmaster Greg to get back from his vacation so we can link them to the home page, that's all.

H.T. hasn't really dropped off the radar or disappeared or anything like that. If you look at his new website (http://htai-models.com/) there's a new email link and he also has a web design service that you can contact him as well (http://www.vizwiz.biz/mainf.html). Now whether he wants to hear from you all or not is the question. I'm nobody here but if one of you seasoned guys that worked with him in the past contact him maybe he wouldn't mind.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the update, looking forward to your work.

Perhaps Weescotty should try and contact HT and see if he would be prepared to allow his original F-16 or C-130s to be modified. If you don't ask you will never get anything.

Regards,
Steve

A King Air mod to the Super King Air 350's would be nice as well.

Oh yea and waiting on a comprehensive A-10C serial research document by Marco that will indicate which A-10 serials have been upgraded to the C version, it will be very much worth the wait to get this info included with the package.

I am not sure where Marco is gathering his info on the A-10's but if you go here

http://www.ondutchwings.nl/db/usaf.php

Type in A-10C in the type box and you will get the serials or just type A-10 and get all the variations of the A-10 and where they are/were generally during 2010.

Regards,
Steve

Never seen one loaded and not even sure if they are wired to carry them.

I know Steve, but apart from the serials I'll also include info on any additional markings, badges, names etc. for every a/c.
Quite some research involved here, but as Mike mentioned, I think it's worth the wait.
What I can tell already is that all of them have been upgraded to the C model, so Mike's new model will be all over the place!

Cheers,

Marco

Hi Marco,
I applaude your efforts in gathering all that extra information for the release package.

The only downside is having gathered all the information a particular aircraft goes in for deep maintenance and comes back out without the markings and probably goes to a different unit.

You only have to look at recently released packages and check the aircraft serials against the info at dutchmil to see changes have taken place.

But once again I applaude the efforts you are making. :D

Regards,
Steve
