I updated the JS-Design Do-335 A2 and Kazunori Ito's Dornier Do-335 A12/Night Fighter by adding Jacques Alluchon's Panel for the Do-335, Aaron R. Swindle's Improved P-51 sound set, and texture thumbnails. I also included the Tom Wood/Simtech Do-335 V13 with Aaron R. Swindle's Improved P-51 sound set, and texture thumbnail. The A2 has no VC, the A12 has a non-working VC, and the V13 has a working VC.

FS2004 FsSkylight Cirrus Clouds v1 This addon is a highres replacement of the default cirrus cloud textures and visibility layer. All images were replaced with more discreet cloud pictures. Compared to the default textures the colors are a bit darker, and the transperency is a little higher. This produces a more realistic blending against the background skycolor. Especially on Sunset or Dawn Flights. 3.7MB

Mike Kelly's reduced clouds. The link for this zip file and the webpage is down, so uploaded here. From the text file included: "Here is an attempt at improving FSX framerates by reducing the size of the cloud textures. All texture dimensions have been reduced by 50%. Alpha channels have also been reduced and preserved. I have seen no ill effects on my system although the reduced clouds do seem slightly more "fuzzy". IMHO this is not bad, just different. Simply unzip into your Texture folder and overwrite the existing files (you may want to back them up first to preserve the originals)."

CFS1 Bristol Bulldog twin pack. Finnish Air Force & Spanish Republican Air Force. The Bristol Bulldog Mk II was used by Spanish Republicans forces to fighting the Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil War (1936-39), remaining in use until the Battle of Santander, flown mainly by foreign volunteer pilots enlisted in the International Brigades. Bristol Bulldogs MK IV were the first aircraft of the Finnish Air Force to make contact with Soviet bomber and escorting fighter in the opening days of the Winter War (1939-40). The Bulldogs fought well against their Soviet opponent, gaining six kills by five pilots for the loss of one of their own, the types shot down being two Polikarpov I-16s and four Tupolev SB-2s, both of which were quite superior in terms of technology compared to the Bulldog. In fact, the very first aerial victory of Finnish Air Force was achieved by a Bulldog piloted by SSgt Toivo Uuttu on 1 December 1939, over an I-16. The Bulldog continued in service during the subsequent Continuation War (1941-44), however they were later relegated to training duties in the 'Continuation War' as more modern aircraft became available.
