It’s an FM-2, not a F4F-4, but, close enough… Grumman FM-2 Wildcat - The American Heritage Museum 1,350 horsepower, bigger vertical tail surfaces and more fuel capacity, earning the name the “Wilder Wildcat.” As Hellcat production was to begin in mid 1942, continued Wildcat production,…

Oh, that’s great to know. I bought it last weekend - really enjoying it but have only had time for a couple of flights (in Kermit’s livery - I’m a sucker for Atlantic camo). I’m a modern/restored warbird flyer, so glad to see all these current options. Will be trying them out.

I still didn’t get the plane as I plan to buy it from the marketplace. SInce you also fly modern/restored warbirds as I do can you confirm which liveries are available for current airworthy Wildcats? I got confused because one post said there was only one and only available at GF’s website but then…

The liveries I outlined above will be what is available to the marketplace excluding the Atlantic camo as that is exclusive to the Got Friends website.

Yes, apologies, I was the one who confused you by posting incomplete information. The package contains all those modern/restored liveries as well as several period ones.

Absolutely lovely plane, and I enjoy flying it! However I’m just not getting the range its supposed to get, with the droptanks used. I had to stop and refuel around 500nmish for a 730nm flight. I flew at 15,000 ft (27knt headwind) and used the power settings from the manual someone posted in this th…

How fast were you flying? At 270 knots, you’d lose, what?, off the top of my head, 10% distance right off the bat. Add in whether or not you were properly leaned and what speed you were flying, etc., etc.. Do the math… (you didn’t give enough information for us to do it for you).

If i remember correctly i think about 180knts 30.5 manifold, 2150rpm and i use automixture
