Thank you, this is indeed fantastic. That's so great and so important. It feels a huge void of an important plane. It seems now much more correct that before. I think it was so much needed.

The P-40 is a plane I learned to respect here in IL-2. Before IL-2, I had too the erroneous impression that it was more or less equivalent with the hurricane. Until I started doing some missions.
I managed continously to get back mission after mission and my respect got higher. I started looking at reviews about P-40 flying characteristics and after reading Ray Hanna's opinion about the P-40 I was impressed by its positive impressions, that matched the IL-2 "flying experience".
That is the P-40, a trouble-free plane with no vices and only one handicap (but an important one...) compared to comtemporary fighters: Being slower.

Now, about the mod, I checked Bee's hier and it seems better to me, definetely but looking at it, it seems very close to perfection, this maybe true that the cockpit position is now wrong, I don't know, but definetely better than the original hier.

I want to make two requests too (I hope you don't mind...)

The one is about the P-40N cockpit, is any chance to have a proper one?

The second, I suppose you are aware of this mod

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,5334.0.html

why don't you add in the loadouts the soviet FAB bombs as in the VVS mod?

Then I look at the Bee's profile comparison, it looks like that the cockpit is just a bit too back in game. I see in both comparisons that the position of wing root is off about as much as the fixed nose and tail error. I'd like to see how well the profile matches the 3D model before Bee's fix when the wing root is used as reference point instead of cockpit. For me it looks like we now have to choose between faulty cockpit position (before Bee's fix) and faulty wing position (with Bee's fix).

Quite right Birdman, well spotted.  I found that I couldn't change the relationship between the cockpit and wing leading edge, so I had to opt for the nose/tail option instead.  Not ideal, but it helps in overall impression.

Hi Bee, your hier.him gave me a perfect purple P-40  ;)  like we sometimes had in the 'old AAA days', seems I have to wait for Anto's update on this one. No punishment for sure.
