Well, the Kate is flyable now.
If any talented mission specialists plan on doin' a Pacific thing w/Japanese torpedo bombers, now's yer chance.
The mod is either a BETA or iffy V1 now, but should be improved soon the way things are goin' over t'AAA way.
If anyone would like a skin with custom/historic squadron/tail art let me know. I'll prolly start piddlin' with it soon.

Sure 'nuff, there's a V2 available since last night.
A Fairey Battle?
I saw a fairey battle once ... in the French Quarter. It spilled out of the bar onto Bourbon Street and ended down near Pat O'Brian's.
Man, they can get nasty.

Gaj, foist da Kate, den da hack.

HOLY PING PONG BALLS! That really looks like the infamous Battle, at least at that angle.

Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute!!!
That's not just a Kate with tricky paint to look like a fairey ...
that's two or more planes hacked together?!?!?!?
Oh jeez, so they've got to be messing with FM's now for sure.
GAH!

Well the skin only is pretty convincing too. So for the moment I will use that. If I get a mission done I will give Gen the skin for those interested.
Also Compans RAF/French voicepack from his 1940 campaign, you can replace (after copying the original) for some brilliant atmosphere.

Is that the skin that came with "Hurricane season"?
