Lockheed Ventura... Just another Idea? - RAF_Magpie - 14.03.2008
S! All...
I was wondering if one of you talented people could throw together a Lockheed PV-1 Ventura...? These were used extensively in the pacific and would be a great addition for the new Slot maps (and even New Zealand). She's not the most glorious of aircraft, but one which is more often then not overlooked
If someone could look into this it would be greatly appreciated? Please?

Just noticed Ranwers fantastic Los! Well done Ranwers...
Infact - that would give a bit of a basis - their very close... Perhaps changing the alpha channels on the majority of the the nose glass except the tip, remove the nose gun, make the belly fatter some how? (like you did with the cant?) and throw a dorsal turret up back... from say the A-20G/B25..?

An interesting idea. The Ventura served throughout the war, served quite well in a number of roles, yet it almost completely forgotten. As far as I know, there is only one remaining in airworthy condition.
