availabe at the downloads page if anyone's looking for one of these.
i've uploaded a normal half-life version here that might be useful for a DoD map or something. i looked at adding it to the hl1 models section, but there's no upload option there.
[addsig]The Lightening my second favorite WW2 plane.
Any chance for a Mustang?
Forking nice model BTW 
i'd like to make a german counterpart before i do any more allied aircraft. but as making the skin is the hardest part for me, and the mustang must be 80% the same as the lightning, then there wouldn't be too much do do in that respect.
i dunno if i have a favourite ww2 aircraft. there are lots of special ones, but all for different reasons. the mosquito for it's balsa wood construction, the spitfire for the graceful lines. and its merlin engine too, that eventually made the the mustang the plane it was designed to be, which was a goodun, but a bit of a late starter. even some of the crazy russian designs that make you wonder if you were paying attention in science class.
i think the fondness i have for the p38 comes from seeing one flying when i was a nipper, and wondering why it didn't have the cargo pod in the middle, just like my thunderbirds model. 
talk about "late starters" 
i am not sure, but didn't that plane come out in mid '44?
it looks fast too.
[edit] yes, i was right 
it was bad enough in my family history, that they supposedly changed our last name spelling to look less German.
they Americanized Rickenbacker, from Richenbacher or some such. /me is not certain. thats just what i heard as a child.

/me just noticed, you virtually own the models download section 
/me still feels that there should be more fanfare associated with decent modeling.
i have made a few to many suggestions around here, perhaps if someone else posted the request in the "site suggestion" thread.
*shrugs*
/me is off to nite/nite now.
be good all.
