FSX Grumman XF5F-1 Skyrocket
The Skyrocket first flew in 1940 and was very fast and otherwise advanced for it's time. The Navy decided it wasn't interested in twin engine fighters and it was not mass produced. Grumman did use lessons learned from this prototype to later develop the very successful F7F Tigercat series. This is a native FSX Acceleration project. It has .dds textures, specular shine, reflective glass, etc.The VC has working instruments and animated flight controls. There is no 2D panel. It has the necessary entries in the aircraft .cfg file so it can catapult from and trap on an Acceleration style carrier. By Paul Clawson

Textures only. Another R-11A, this time a surplus civil machine.There is ample precedent for a civil tanker,
SiS Q operated tanked F7F's back in the '60's and 70's, and F-6 reporters were tanked,though
I don't know where you would hang a tank on a F-11. Or use it for a super bird-dog, or a
survey and mapping ship, or camera platform. But she sure looks sexy in Aero Union
'warpaint'. N927AU, Aero Union 27. Requires the XF-11 Redux package. Model by Ian Lawrence. Classic Wings version by Craig Richardson. Repaints by 3/7charlie.

A correction for the XF/R-11A repainted textures. The wrong version got in, due to finger trouble.
Notably, inverted glare panels on the 'night versions. This fixes it

This is another freeware lost classic, with a very nice VC,nice model,and blistering performance.
If you want to blast along at 400+ kts/50,000ft behind 56 cylinders, 8720 Cu", and 16 prop blades,
this is your machine. Ian Lawrence produced the original model, and Craig Richardson at
Classic Wings put the cockpit in it and polished the original textures and FDE. This is my contribution,
4 'what if?'textures for the machine,if it had made it into service,as the R-11A/WR-11A, in the '49-54
period.The 'Square I' marking and black anti-searchlight scheme was carried by RB-45C Tornado's operating
out of Japan during the Korean war. The other 2 schemes, I pulled out of my hat, but comform to markings
and color schemes carried by contemporary USAF aeroplanes. The model was a FS 2002/2004 model, but runs
very nicely in FSX SP1, with excellent frame rates, a perfect cockpit, and minor 'clouds in front' prop issues
in some aspects(no wherenear as bad as some others). The screen shots are in FSX SP1.
Don't turn your nose up because its a port-over, its worth it.

Some color for Edward Cook's lovely little DH. Don trainer. 3 'what if' schemes, just for fun, not purporting to be any specific aircraft,
but entirely plausible;had the Don seen series production.A camoflaged RAF hack in 'Sand and Spinach',a Target Tug striped machine, and a post-war RN trainer. A great aeroplane for
buzzing along VFR low and slow over the English countryside on a sunny september afternoon.Requires Edward Cooks DH.93 Don V.02.
For FSX/FS2004

FS2004/FSX Fairey Firefly MkV warbird
The Mk V is the best looking Firefly. The Firefly 5 was produced in three forms, as the NF, FR and AS, all similar externally to the 4. Some models were flown with a fuel tank instead of the radar. The FR.5 carried the radar in the starboard wing nacelle and was equipped with beam approach, IFF and communications radio. You get two variants. Sound file by RB Design.
