• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military skins - World War II

Description: This is a repaint for the ex-payware IRIS Curtiss P40E, which is part of the IRIS Classic P-40 package, which can be found on all major flightsim site, including our own library at the SOH (file IRIS Classics P-40.zip, uploaded by Matt Wynn in June 2010).

This repaint shows the The Kittyhawk Mk.III EV421, from No.2 Sq. SAAF, flown Maj D.B. Hauptfleisch, spring 1942. It is unclear whether it was actually a Mk.IA with a modified tail, or a genuine Mk.III. As there is a picture from the EV421 with the earliy Mk.IA tail, without fillet.

I recommend to use the "de-shined" model file by Wild Bill Kelso, which is avialble in the library here as well. This repaint is based on the better than excellent paintkit by Steve "Duckie"Bryant.

Thanks to IRIS for their nice model, to Wild Bill Kelso for the deshined model files, Duckie for his excellent paintkit and of course Martin Wright for his excellent graphic tools.

To use this repaint you should have the now freeware IRIS Curtiss P-40E installed.

That should be all,

Enjoy,
