• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Another "Poor man's Mustang"?


I, and many others, liked Bill Lyon's rendition in FS8/9, so I bet you'll already have quite a fanbase for this bird. :D
 
I've been fleshing out the gear well stuff. I have the hydraulic lines in, the emergency retraction cable, and some texturing of the structural bits. I'm looking at fixing the shading on the external wing skin soon...

If you need pictures of a real Swift, I may be able to help you out. I sometimes volunteer at a local aviation museum and I just learned that they recently acquired a Swift. PM me if you're interested!

Thanks for the offer, Scott. I just might put you to work!
I've been working on the wing. The control surfaces are in, the mapping is done, and I'm working on the textures...





 
I did, and thanks for doing that! Progress has slowed on the Swift as I have picked up some modeling work on the side that is taking up a lot of my time.
 
I'm not a GA fan Robert, but I love to see real quality modeling: picking my jaw off the desk right now at the lovely lines of your model. :cool:
