the search for a B17

Postby slimcooper » Mon Jun 23, 2003 1:38 pm

 First off I wantr to say simviation is one of the best sites out there for flight simmers, it is the largewst single place to get freeware addons.
 Now, I'm looking for a B-17 for fs2k2, I dont want one for cfs2 or fs2000, I know I can install them and they would probably work, but I'm an eye candy type of simmer and enjoy the animations that fs2k2 can provide. I clicked on "search" and put in  B-17, fs2002,  and gotr back results that said (99%) but were no where close to a b17, not 1 hit, what exactly does that search engine do?, randomly pull up links that are in no way connected? I got 3 links to fs2002 military, a link to fs2002 panels, 2 links to fs2002 scenery, and not 1 link had a b17 anywhere on the page. Sooooo, does anyone know where I might find a B-17 for fs2002? gmax would be a plus. Thank you

As far as I know there isn't a B-17 available for FS2002. If Microsoft new anything they'd know that the B-17 is a major historical aircraft and the should include it with FS-COF but then again it is a civil flight simulator not military. It would be great to see a B-17 with the Aluminum Overcast livery though. It's a beautiful aircraft.

FYI, this will problibly be moved to the "Aircraft Wanted" section. But, In the "Aircraft wanted" section, there's a Fortress, but you have to give the guy your e-mail adress (If you have one.) 8)
