Oh OK...That shape is a bit off in my opinion. DaveG's is spot on...In fact all his Hunters are extemely accurate...Well, I don't need to say that here as everybody knows that :lol:

99.99% sure that's my Hunter. :lol:

The tailpipe does look odd in that pic though *-) Could be the angle.It also looks like the pic has a lot of compression as that's some very odd shading around the panel lines on the underside :dunno:

Bit odd that a rival product should be posted here *-) :worried: :dunno:

I don't fly military so I had assumed in ignorance that it was DG's :lol:

I googled "XF414" and that was the page I found first, I looked at the screen cap on the page for XF414 and it had the same shape as well.

If both are like that then it must be so with FGA9s viewed from that angle.

99.9%...Well Dave, I hesitate to question your opinion...However, I don't think that is your Hunter :hide:

Perhaps Austerdriver will let us know :worried:

Aircraft in the picture is DaveG's FSX Native Hawker Hunter.

This will be staying in FSX now that I have flown it. And it makes a change to flying the low and slow aircraft.
