There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
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 politician 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 among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

As regards the Gulfhawk, I'm afraid not, that is a Just Flight exclusive product.
No worries, all tongue in cheek - it’s just a pity that every time an offer like this is made I somehow seem to already own the bonus. Lol. For those on the fence get down and make the buy - that Grumman is carrier qualified and a beauty all by itself, getting it and the Bulldog for that price is a great deal.

Has anyone succeeded with the download from FSPilotShop? Mine has a texture fault and won't install. Raised a ticket both with them and AH and am waiting... Still, I got my free F3F.

Oh well, when you are deep in the mire, it's good to know there are others there too!
Got the same problem here with the installation in FSX, due to the vickers.dds error all the textures are missing.
Found a work around to this issue by installing the P3d.32 bit version in an other temp folder and copying the missing textures files into the fsx folder and also copied the effects folder to the proper location and of she goes.

Well done Wim! With your guidance I have installed the Bulldog in to FsX.

Works like a dream!!!!
That's odd, the FSPilotshop installer is the same one we use. Tested and working fine.
No problems with the JF installer for P3Dv4!!

Contacted the stores. If the store is using a linux server ( probably) then a file named blah_blah_v1.0.exe will have issues. because a "0.exe" is not a real file-type. Further to this some browsers - chrome is one - then dont download this file correctly.
One person helpfully emailed the help desk at ah ( help@aeroplaneheaven.com btw ) and told me the file sizes he had on his computer which were all around 20-30 mb too small once unzipped and the zip itself was 100 mb too small this pointed out to me a file naming issue and download issue. I'm asking the stores to name the zips as just something like blah_blah_v1_0.zip which is all we did.

Managed to get to try it thanks to the work around suggested so at least I've had a chance to use it... and its absolutely magnificent.
The only thing I find...and it may just be a matter of taste... is that the metalwork is a bit bright and shiny and looks a bit odd when viewed on the unlit side. Could we perhaps have a less shiny alternative?
There is a paint scheme I was hoping to do but the paint kit wont work with my ancient version of photoshop (6)… I was wondering if you would consider doing it and adding it to the package? It's 3 Squadron RAF... there are some that had a thinner green stripe that ran all the way along the fuselage including on the metal parts... not a roundel flash which are thicker and end at the metal... made it look like a humbug. Looked really good I thought.
Anyway thanks for such a great rendition. I hope it proves a good seller and prompts you to do more of those lovely silver biplanes from the 20s and 30s.

Is anyone still able to locate the Bulldog at the JustFlight site? I found it yesterday after doing a query, but today it doesn't pop-up anymore.
Perhaps it has something to do with problem described by Pilto von Pilto in an earlier post, which in that case means JF is most proably trying to solve the problem.

I purchased mine direct from AH and had no problems with downloading and installing. I downloaded both versions: FSX and P3D V4 as well as the paint kit.
My only complaint is the difference between the $AU and the $US. But if I want something bad enough it is something I have to live with.
