Gannet models (static) .......uploaded.

Featured Replies

G'day all,With all the newfound interest in the Nimitz aircraft carrier I have uploaded 2 static models, of the Fairey Gannet which is a carrier bourne anti-submarine aircraft of the 1960's, for you to decorate the carrier with. Allow time for the Library to process the upload as I have only just uploaded.For the technically minded I have used a 1024 x 1024 crammed tif for the textures so repainting will be easier. I also altered my render.ini to allocate 2 1024 textures. That gave me the 50 fps as seen in the attached pic with 3 gannets added to the carrier. Cheers,Roger 6nm. SSW YSSY

Thank you ver much Roger,I will use the Gannet for a German navy airport which was their base at former times (who cares they aren't there nowadays), an aircraft museum (where you can find one) and it's a pretty good idea to decorate the Nimitz with them. I'll use the Nimitz for eye candy and Jan's carrier for landing practising.RegardsGeorg HeliFLYer EDDW

Hi Roger.Thanks.I have always thought the Gannet was an awesome aircraft.Pitty it's not flyable.But static is better than nothing :)So longJanhttp://www.avsim.com/hangar/fly/dfdg/bannerjh.jpg
