Is anyone working on a version of the Mitsubishi Hayate known in WW2 by the Americans as Frank (or was it George)'
I played a version in Warbirds and I was very impressed?

Yes the Ki-84 was the Nakajima Ki84 "Frank".
I have a book that a japanese friend sent me and it has everything you need to build the plane. I mean everything!

I have a model but it's crappy and i planed to redo it after i get the Ki-61 up to par with the P-39. Then i was going to start on a new Ki-84 model.

There were two franks, I think. I'll have to get the model numbers when I get home. I have pit shots (color) for the Ki-100, Zero-Zen, Ki-46, and Shinden-Kai

Ki-100 was the super version of the Ki-61. Super meaning it was the last variant of the Ki-61. The Ki-46 was a 2 engine bomber nicknamed the "Dinah".

can you send me the pics of the Ki-100,Zero, and the Ki-46?

Would love to see then, i need to see what the Ki-100 is anyway.

Sure, it will give me some motivation to move the wife's scanner and software over to my computer (she doesn't use her computer since she got the company laptop) and rehook the USB up to the printer. I also owe some screen shots to a few people. I am slow, but I am sure slow.
