• 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.

P-40 by A.F. Scrub

I read one of Krzysztof's readmes, (from his Ki-100) in it he says that anyone is free to do any freeware work with his files, also he goes on to say that you dont need to ask for permission or special authorization. Scrub has made his own aircraft too so it's not all other people's models.Some he has credited the original authors.

This is from the ReadMe from Krzysztof's P-40F:

- You are free to do any freeware work with these files.
- You MUST keep a copy of this file "Original.txt" with any redistribution of these files.
- You don't need to ask permission or special authorization or any of that as long as "Original.txt" file is in your package.
- These files are NOT to be used on any payware sites, payware projects, or freeware sites requiring paid access.


It would seem that Scrubby's only offense may have been not including the original ReadMe file. IF in fact it is the same model, and IF the verbiage in Krzysztof's early Hawk is the same. I don't have Krzysztof's early P-40 so I can't compare the models or check that ReadMe file. I hope someone will do that and tell us what they find out.

When Scrubby converted one of Thicko's Brewster Buffalos to FS9 he gave proper credit, as with others of his conversions.

It's all very foggy and uncertain!
 
If he's converting A2A aircraft and then uploading them as freeware as said above, he can get his tailfeathers caught in a crack.
