File Description: First and foremost, this aircraft package is dedicated to the memory of the late Paul Mantz, a veteran stunt pilot who gave his life in the making of the 1965, 20th Century Fox movie, “Flight of the Phoenix” starring James Stewart and a strong cast of other well known actors.
This package contains not only the C-82 Packet, but, as a special feature, “The Phoenix” as well. For those of you who have not seen this classic, you are missing a real jewel. It can still be obtained in VHS or DVD at www.amazon.com I highly recommend it.
The C-82 comes in three paint schemes, U.S.A.F., Bush Flying Unlimited, and of course, Arabco Oil. The Phoenix is painted as it was in the movie. Both aircraft have excellent panels built by K. Mitchell and the C-82 possesses a very nice virtual cockpit on par with that found in the C-119; previously released. These are DXT-3 textures with no mip-maps to preserve image clarity. I chose this format in the attempt to maintain a minimal upload/download package size. I will be following up with individual texture replacement packages in 32-bit for those who wish them.
I hope you enjoy this flightsim model as much as I did putting this package together. I could not have done so without the excellent help and work of Daisuke Yamamoto, Herb Morse, K. Mitchell, Mike Hambly, and Brent Hricziscse.
Enjoy! Heather

File Description: With the kind permission of Daisuke Yamamoto, this package is a rework of his wonderful model of the Fairchild C-119 "Flying Boxcar." Included is his original paint scheme and I have included two more, one for "Bush Flying Unlimited" and the other for my friend Bob Arthur, "Reddog's Air Service;" both sets rendered in 32-bit hi-res format with no mip-maps.
The configuration files have been reworked by the talented Mr. Herb Morse and Brian Gladden to provide flight characteristics as close as possible to the real thing.
Thank you Mr. Yamamoto for providing the flight community with such a wonderful model of a classic workhorse.
