Would you please, please, please consider doing a KC-135A. Old steam gauges and water injected takeoffs. I'm a former USAF SAC KC-135A crew chief. If you need any details I'd be glad to help. Historic Jetliners Group has done one but there is no VC and the textures are not DX10 compatible. I'd buy it in a heart beat.

This would be an awesome idea one which is long waiting for, you should do both KC-135 or a KC-10. Which ever your team chooses?
And if you do please design the drouge and boom to actually animate the real world actual drouge and boom contact points.
I don't like the fuel probe flying right thru the drouge It is so unrealistic? Because of this I gave up refueling on FSX LOL!
I was flying DCS and the A-10 has a realistic probe connect to the tanker which is awesome to have It looked kind of arcade but it worked. Good luck looking forward to actually and realistically connect to the refuel drouge or boom!...Our Military virtual community would greatly appreciate your efforts on this endevour. Thanks.

How about a Lockheed T2v-1 Seastar. I don't think it's ever been done for FSX.

The bottom A/C, "N447TV" is owned and flown by Mark Sherman at the former Williams AFB, (KIWA.)
That means up-to-date, real world experience and modeling is available for MilViz.
Just a thought.

I still like the T-37 Tweet idea. Shared cockpit, FAIPs, barf bags. How cool would that be?

I would like to see a C-47/DC-3. There are some out there but the quality is lacking.

Did CS do a 135? A nice one?
No....just a 707.

Yes, a KC-135, FSX native? I'm in......

Admit the pictures of the very much anticipated F-100 hooking up to what looks to be a KC-135R, always makes me take a 2nd look... Would be great to get the KC-135A model, as it would be more contemporary with the "Hun".

I'd like to see an A6E Intruder. Long serving plane for the fleet. Most fsx models of it are wanting.

Am I too late, has the project already started?

Anyway, my choice would be the KC-135 definitely. I've always loved the 135, and finally got to see a few of them at last years Avalon Airshow. Beautiful aircraft. I also have an in cockpit DVD of an ANG KC-135 out of Phoenix which includes footage from the "Boom flyer's" position as well. It would be amazing if the model included the ability to fly the boom. Is that asking too much? I'm not even sure if it would be possible. That's definitely not a prerequisite, I would love the KC-135 either way.

Cheers,

Nice choice. Will there be a Marine Corps livery version as well.
