Hey howdy all

Hey there Frenchy :)

Sorry been working lately and haven't been reading the boards.

I added Wotan's, and Samms skins to Greece

Came up on a problem with checking with task groups... program CTD.. thought it was only happening to me but Sundog said he was getting it too with Midway.  So I been waiting for that to be sorted out. I took out the task groups but plan to add 3 back.  We haven't heard back from HTC.

Anyway here's greece on my server. Here's the skins Wotan and Samm gave me.
109E
109F
110C4
Boston
C47
Hurri1
Hurri2- (Samms winter scheme)

So I need spits ... some 205s.. Wotan said he could send some of those..

So this will be rebuilt before sending it up to Texas.. after what to do about the fleet deal... (battle of Greece they didn't really use many carriers.. if any) send me any skins that might look good in Greece

Some fancy stuff if you have em' :)

Is that a Hellenic Airforce Hurricane you need, or merely RAF Hurricanes stationed in Greece?? :o

Its very nice Frenchy.......(Shane posted it to Bigweek)...........

I'd love it if............

1) Change the green tinted camo to the original TE dark tone grey. (this can also be usd to hide the black rectangle behind the cockpit)

2) Delete tricoluer from rudder.........(post war French marking) (spinner is nicely done)

Re the Cross of Lorraine...........

The cross was added to the unit standard in December 44 after de Gaulle presented them each with the Free French medal........

I am not even sure if every unit of the Normandie Niemen (Cain, C'bourg, L'havre, Rouen) used it during the time with the VVS.

Osprey publish a picture reputed to be taken in July 44 which shows a line up of Yak 3's with the Cross...........but this is contradicted in almost every other photo/print I have seen.

Even so with all 4 groups of the Normandie Niemen honoured in the Niemen scenario project( July to October/November 44) it would be nice to feature the cross on the  skin.

Thx for the link

This one is most appropriate for the Niemen project...



The white arrow denotes the units attachment to 303IAD on the baltic front during the later part of 44 and 45.

Its a yak 3 (which the Normandie Niemen flew from  July 44 onwards). Hence if you want the 303IAD arrow you get a yak 3.

for a picture porported to be taken during 44 look at this back ground screen



Sorry the back ground is slow to load

You should note the Cross off Lorraine on the tails.............it not a winter scene and so is ether the summer of 44 or 45 ...hence ..to honour the Normandie Niemen I would be happy to allow the cross on the project if placed on white 6 as shown in the back ground screen.

Actually I believe this was taken in France in late 45 and the yak3 in the fore ground is that of Rene Challe (until 17th Jan 45) and latterly Leon Ougloff

Wotan, your Martlets are almost done...

Pics in this thread

Standard FAA mid-late war camo is impossible because the skin only has a single wing mirrored.  A MkIII (the order on the way to Greece before it fell) and a MkI.

I have to say the MkIII is a 'best guess'. The aircraft on the way to the greek AF were painted Blue/Grey, they'd only reached Gibralter when Greece fell so the FAA had them instead. They were gradually painted in standard camo, so this one is 'supposedly' and an aircraft just off the boat with FAA Roundels applied over the greek ones.  Not great but the latest semi-realistic markings I can do for the FAA I'm afraid.

Tilt,

 "ramzey AFAIK all Hurr's in 1944 was in air defence of big cityes in Russia, and no hurricane were at central europe theatre"

Your freind is quite correct..............thats why it is a CO hack........

Regiment leaders or VVS party commisars were given older semi or no combat planes (often U2's) to move from field to field.........

Similarly the LW would often fly BF 108's .........in this case they have 110's .............


The white bordered star is more appropriate for 44 so the later on a Hurris IIc will be great.

re Hartman...........his skin would be nice  but not the famed winter white ...........

actually 1/JG 51 is more appropriate as other gruppen were moved back and forth to assist them during this period..................in fact JG54 and 1/JG51 were the only permanent LW  JG in the area for this period.


Thx  Ramzey and Frenchy for the responces
