Mace,

Did I send you the Operation 'Torch' Sea Hurricane scheme? If not do you want it. It's a nice two tone grey scheme with yellow tail flash and spinner.

Yardstick, I'd love to have this skin too. In fact the "Torch 'Cane" was my next painting project

mace,
i read in ronans key commands list,that the X key (inclusive Shift-x and Ctrl-x)is already used to activate dive brakes.So you should change this.If anyone can tell me witch SDOE plane use dive brakes?

Rendsburger, you can choose any key that is not in use. For example, if you use X for dive brakes, and you want another key for activating the RATO, just open up your keyboard.inp and write cmdRATO = Y or whatever key you want.

Hip63, it's OK to include the Seafire and Sea Hurricane on your web site, just make sure the Readme.txt, CarrierOps.rtf and CAMOps.rtf files are included.

Yardstick, thanks for the new instrument panel and Seafire skin, I'll include your excellent Sea Hurricane skin in the next update.

Rendsburger,'X' can be used for RATO as long as a aircraft doesn't have BOTH dive brakes and RATO's. For example if you have a mission with the Sea Hurricane (with RATO) and F86f Sabre (with dive brakes) each would work perfectly well. A problem would arise if the Sea Hurricane had dive brakes, etc.
