Hi there WRAITH. As we are very new to this project area. I doubt we would take on such a project, as I personally do not have any/much interest in such an air-frame and would find the work to be dis-pleasing. We may consider it in the future, but not for now.

Yeah, those large WWII gliders seem awesome, but would not be valid without a tow plane, and I have no idea how that could even work. So I think we'd be looking at a powered sailplane. I'm not sure what we could do with the DCS Engine allowing us a tow plane, or other means of launching. Maybe we could use a Steam Catapult script when ED is ready with that. :thumbup:

After going through each of your thoughtful comments. I think we will in-deed work on a demo aircraft, something like a glider. This means we also have time to talk to ED about getting a licence for the final goal (F-8E Crusader). It would also give us evidence that we can show to ED, to help our case. Thanks a heap guys.

How can I contact you? Send me a PM with your details, I will do the same. :pilotfly:

That'd be awesome. I'm not all to good at modelling either, I could probably model the cockpit, but the exterior would be out of my level. Would be good if some artists wanted to join along.

So I've had this idea of making the Vought F-8E Crusader. With a PFM etc... Now, I don't have the skills to do every part of the mod, and I would not be able to delegate more than 20 Hours a week to the project. I have my research underway, I have a fairly complex understanding of jets, calculus; and physics. So, the point of making this thread? Would anyone be interesting in helping me to make this air-frame, and possibly develop into a small third party developer. Sincerely, Daffles.
