...and you'll end up with an underpowered maintenance hog. When loaded, you need all 2400HP of the ADI-augmented Pratt Horsepower. Heck, with a full load a CV-240 will barely keep 300 FPS climb due mainly to the reduced power settings required by 100LL operations. Keeps the engines running for close to 900 hours TBOH though. :)

Looks nice but it'll only embarrass you in the air. Try the Napier Sabre H-24 (Typhoon/Tempest engine to the rookies in the crowd)
...Oh Yeah, dump the excess airframe and hook'em up to NAR Bronco!! :shock:

PS
Thinking of ya Hairy!!! :D I think we found "the guy".. 8)

Looks like you grew the Merlin into a Griffon, only the prop is turning the wrong way!

Good job. Try adjusting the Levels on the turbine layer to more closely match the mustang skin. The Mustang photo is a bit light too, so you can also bring the black up in the Levels to help out as well. Also your transistion at the leading edge is a dead giveaway as it is a straight line. Work that area so it is a more believeable transition.
