  1. Love this mod, used the F104 cockpit to make an exact scale replica of an F104G using RO+RSS+AJE+FAR (and any other realism mod I could get ahold of). I had to make some RO configs to make the cockpit exactly true to life (scaled up diameter to 1.45m, changed the mass). I spent way too much time on it. I used 3-views (blueprints) and the little selection box size on MSpaint to get exact dimensions and proportions for every part, including the control surfaces and wings (I had to take the cosine of the length from the top-down view b/c of the slight angle droop of the wings), and I even found an old US military document pdf that told me exactly how much each control surface deflects and I used that. And luckily, AJE has the F104's engine, although I tweaked the config and made a new engine part that was the specific variant of the engine used on the F-104G (slightly different thrust and mass). These pictures are of a rendezvous I did with a Concorde replica I made (also spent too much time getting dimensions and proportions exactly right) using an SXT cockpit with RO config, and engines I had to config in myself using engine stats I found online. I eventually shot down the Concorde with the vulcan cannon onboard the F104, which made the already terrible framerate even worse.
