Correct. You can use them with the VSN F-104G Mod. The pictures from the last few days are of paint schemes that have not been released yet. Waiting for some changes to the model to be completed before I release any new stuff for the F-104A/F-104C.

Just felt my BP spike…

Bring it! Can’t wait!

Well I for one wouldn’t be salty with you, and I would think the Danes, Turks and Norwegians would give you a pass too

IFR probe cover work...

W.I.P. Placeholder serial number until I pick a specific aircraft.

Couple more National Guard A models (W.I.P.)

Yeah, I’ve got a soft spot for it, that’s for sure. Luckily it’s relatively easy to make the A and C since they are very close to the G, other than the tail.

F-104A progress... a few panel line differences between the A and C models, note the different heat exchanger vents near the FG-930 marking on the aft fuselage.

434th TFS, 479th TFW, George AFB, California, circa 1959.

Hi Mate! So far it’s been a pretty easy conversion from the G, with only a couple of mapping issues at the rear edge of the new rudder. There are some other differences on the fuselage to work on, and some other details I could add but depends on how much time I have. Tip tank inboard fins need to be shortened to same length as outboard fins, and some other things that hopefully Kobra can adjust on the model.

W.I.P.

Turkish camo skin added, please see first post for download link.

UPDATE: Sabre OTU skins should now work, plus some new stuff coming. Will post links when new stuff approved.

Hi guys! @[MVP] Mugga F-86 quadrant project has been replaced (for now) by my own F-100 quadrant, as it will be a better all-round match for DCS/MSFS early jets both with and without AB (Sabre, Starfighter, DCS F-100D <Woot!>, etc). I've recently been upgrading my home pit from an Obutto R3V to an aluminum Monstertech style set up which is infinitely more adjustable for peripherals. Once I get the pit set up I'll return to the quadrant as a winter project. Did I mention how jealous I am of your collection of F-86 bits? @Hiromachi Great job on both the quadrant and the mounting solution! This is exactly what I'm going to do with mine, some sort of 80/20 aluminum frame I can bolt on/take off in a couple of minutes. Wiring the switches is easy but I'll definitely be getting your advice when it comes time to set up the throttle axis electronics. Cheers!

Lovely!

Yes, I’ll see if I can put ‘703 and ‘833 up this weekend. Started a training course for work in Jan which will run for the next few weeks so no time for skinning Mon-Fri… Beautiful!

I think I used Amarillo USAF, so I'm not sure why the difference in appearance would happen, unless it's a case of using Gimp and choosing BOLD as a text style. Yes, it's FUN to match up the text in that area, isn't it All thanks go to the guys at VSN for putting up with my whining

Nice pic! You can use arguments in the description files to mimic both an early and late version of the CF-104 as well as the stock F-104G model now, thanks to the guys from VSN who have been very accommodating. I believe there may be RF versions in the pipeline as well. They’re nice models, aren’t they? Late variegated camo is next, as well as ‘703 from the Manitoba museum. The CEPE “Royal Flush” five airplanes are in progress, as well as ‘781 for you.

#6 is the ejection seat. You can change textures, as I have done to mimic a C-2 seat for instance, but you can’t change the model. The only template I have for it (as such) are the C-2 changes I made, and you can just use the textures from my Shared folder if you want that seat.
