BTW thats JUST died not dust died...
This means that my plane shop is held captive until I can get a new one. Looks like I go through them about 1 a year. (I use it a lot...).

Fortunately I had just emailed the latest P38J .sm file to Raider so he can work on it when he gets done with his tests. That also means I have a copy in my sent basket .

There are lods and models (like the gun pod for the P38L-1-10, AND the PBY
) out there though that I cant access at the moment. Lets hope it didnt take anything with it when it went....

Bumber, I have a spare internal IDE and about 5 zip disks I'd be happy to part with, for a nominal fee . I think even 2 of those zip disks have some awesome CFS planes on them

Our parallel port ZIP at work just died too.
Looks like it also managed to ruin a few disks as it went down.

Yes, by all means he can send it to you, IF you email me the latest copy of your torp .

There is the copy of the PBY I emailed you in my sent mail also. But there was *so* much more (all of the history of what had been done/tried, all the individual parts etc etc). If it did take out the cartridge or files, I wont give up on a PBY, but I will start over again and do things differently.

With the PBY you will want to start in the air. Right now the floats cause the LG to break making takeoff impossible....
