Funny you should mention it. I'm sure I recalled seeing a Blue Angels C130 model in FS2004 that had JATO rocket effects - someone told me it was a Captain Sim one but I could never find anything freeware for FSX...so I decided just last month to make one myself.
Or rather what I should say is I decided to take Mike Stone's freeware model for FS2004 adapted by Eric Buchmann (which I assume is the model you have?) and completely reworked it for FSX. I've given it brand new, painted from scratch, DDS textures, with a Blue Angels 2008 livery. Also created a new ENVMAP file to stop the horrible "rotating reflections" you get with FS2004 imports into FSX when the fuselage is a reflective style. Then married all this up with a freeware panel by Luca De Battista and some nice sound files by Farhaad Saboori. Fixed a few of the Panel bugs in the fuel and engine gauges, and finally added some new startup smoke and inflight engine smoke.
The only bits I haven't completed yet are the XML to control the engine smoke, and a special effect for the JATO rockets. So, even if there's an effect already out there for FSX, I think I'll give it a shot anyway and offer it up here if I can get it working. In fact, no point keeping it to myself when I'm finished, so I'll also offer up the new Blue Angels livery and airfiles too, along with the layered paintkit I created. And I might as well chuck in a set of RAF textures I made when I was creating the paintkit (the paintkit is PSP files, although if I've time I'll try and also convert it to PSD format as well).
Since it's only loosely connected with the Blue Angels hornet, and I certainly don't want to annoy our excellent Dreamteam hosts, I might try and get a webpage up that all this stuff can be downloaded from, and just put the link here. Now I am just realising how much I'm biting off and how long it's likely to take...sorry if this all takes a while to get ready.
