Hi Moggy,Very nice screen shot. Always my favourite time of the EAW day. Question: 1) What skyscape did you install and where can I get it? 2) What campaign is that A/C skin from? Cheers mate  David

The sky is the Dunkirk 1.5 package - actually done by VB. The sun is whatever is standard for 128E/F The MB152 in the first picture is also from the Dunkirk package. The MS406 (GC III/3) is one of DeanH's skins - I'm adding his MS406/D520 skins to the Dunkirk 128E/F upgrade. Moggy DCM

Another sunset shot ...  One of Flyright's D510 skins of French local defence squads, which I'm also including in the Dunkirk upgrade. Moggy DCM

Beautiful atmospheric pics!
I´m lookin forward to your upgrade - which additional planetypes to you want to integrate?
Dornier Do 17, Henschel Hs 123, Bf 109D, Bf 109E-1 (only MGs in wings) e.g - just to mention some LW types?

Have Do17, 109D (night fighter), 109E1 (and E3 and E4) already - together with Hs126 with the usual LW 1940 customers.
Mainly adding to the French roster. Already had MB152, V156, LeO451, Bre 693, Amiot 354, and Potez 6311.
Adding MS406, D520, Hawk75, Potez 631 (nightfighter?), MB200, Amiot 143, DB7, D510, Caudron, and Koolhoven (did consider Arsenal VG33 - the sources say two actually saw combat). Because 128E/F can give me a separate planeset for each of the Ten Days of Dunkirk, I can fit these planes into vacant slots not used by the existing historical mission setup.
The Morane, D520, and Hawk can get a more or less full ten day mission set escorting the various bombers. The Potez 631, D510, Caudron and Koolhoven can have walk-on parts.
What I really wanted was a Farman for the Berlin raid, but unfortunately we don't have the model.
