Well? What do you think?

One more thing. Can any of you help me on making very realistic flight dynamics for this aircraft? I tried using the *.air and Aircraft.cfg files used by the NightHawk version (found in simviation), but they have 2 drawbacks. 1)They are for FS98 or 2000 and 2) their text layout is unrecognizable or not understood by me (which means I can't properly set the contacts for the model and I can't set its eyepoint).

Please help.

Anyways, what improvements do you want to see on this Gmax model? Yes, the model is ONLY made with GMAX v1.2.

bottom shape, and the second image shows a flat part before the intake mesh, and a more pronounced intake.

An can you post it in such a way that you can only see the bottom silouette (with the sun as background), to check if the wing angle is correct (it has a smaller wing angle compared to the F-117, which caused both prototypes to be very unstable)

The last time I set up a release date, the date pass and the model was still not finished. This was due to the lack of need flight dynamics. Nobody stepped forward to help on that part.

I posted a link to the F-117/A Have Blue's website. There are tons of information on its history, but not much info on the external dimensions and performance. But still, nobody wanted to help.

Here are the pics:

Don't mind the textures on the last pic. The blue appearance has been removed and replaced with the camo textures (like you see on the earlier pics I posted).

I think the wing sweep for the Have Blue is around 72* probably more. In real life, it had no flaps. Just a 2 pairs of spoilers on the top and bottom.

So, its actual landing speed was around 163 knots. The pilots had a hell of a time trying to get that thing to land on the ground without overshooting the runway or stalling too soon.
