Hi all,

Flyingtoaster, the author of the original f-14b did model a nice Hornet. 
I know that he would be very happy to see it used in flightgear and he 
agreed to release it under GPL. It's a blender model (though I took the 
screen hot from an ac3d window).

See: http://www.maison-capestang.com/fg/fa-18step5.ac.png


In http://www.maison-capestang.com/fg/ there are also some other free 
models, all by flyingtoaster, and all released under GPL. (Any way, I 
think a little mail asking confirmation about the license and also 
asking permission wouldn't hurt that much). He is joinable on the forum, 
nick: Flying toaster

So if this model can help and solve the current license problems, maybe 
everyone will be happy.
BTW, the hornet lowpoly model used for the Vinson is based on this 
original model.

Alexis
