Great to see but I have a strange event in that it loads with all damage, bent prop blades and bullet holes. Anyone else got this?

Many THX to all involved ...!  8)

No DL problem for me, I even scanned the folder with Avira, so for those who have problems, here is a Mediafire link :

Thanks for this. I'll do a single some time. Next box to tick is looking it up on Wikipedia. I am vaguely familiar with it though.

cheers

Thank you, 101tfs!

Such a coincidence too – yesterday I was looking for non-trainer aircraft that was operational from the mid-30s to '45 and not already in the sim, and the P-66 (as well as V-11/ V-12, also from Vultee) came up.

Also saw this video a little over a year ago on the type:


Cheers,

Heres its wiki:

Sweden would have had them as well if not for an embargo from the US

Pretty outstanding.  I downloaded.  Will fly it soon... as soon as Prosser puts out a mission!  Hurry David!  (Just messing with you man!  :) )

Heres its wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-66
Sweden would have had them as well if not for an embargo from the US

After reading about it, I think it was a missed opportunity with a little more tweaking and development, especially because at least 100 were produced.  That could have made some form of show in the right hands.  I keep on thinking of Pokryshkin making the MiG-3 work for him instead of whining about it.

According to the documents, the Mig-3 is a very good aircraft - almost equal to the Friedrich and better than the Yak-1.
