I've never read that before. Did it? It had a fairly long career for an early jet although that's certainly not as long as some later types.

Their is a completed Gloster Meteor at SAS and it should be in 4.12. Just saying.

I don't think Ranwars will submit it to TD.
He just doesn't have a reason to.

[dFrog]

If proper people don't ask him...

AFAIK his models are not done according to specifications so that rules them out automatically.

That may be too much of a generalisation.
Most of his early stuff were Frankenplanes -- so not to spec.
Then he began incorporating new 3D modelled elements within Frankenplanes. -- so also not to spec.
The new Meteor jet however appears to be modelled from scratch, and very nice it is too.

--but its up to him whether or not he submits it I guess. It was actually a joint project with Crazyflak and Loku.

Very true, cant forget crazyflak and loku.
And it is very, very nice. I dont care a bit what the specs are when Im looking at that beautiful plane (usually through a gunsite lol)

Not that I know of. You might be thinking of several other post-war British craft.
The De Havilland Comet was an airliner which suffered several crashes due to metal fatigue, and the De Havilland Mosquito suffered badly when used in tropical environments (notably post-war India and Malaysia) since its wood skin delaminated quickly in the heat and humidity.

Simply, for every project is need have model in max/PSD file ready with correct structure for revision, convert and possible later patch or update.
Are here still same rules as for previous 3rd party where did this work MG.
