OT: small break just for fun....

I didn't know that walruses had such a vocal range. Woah!

Should anyone ever complain about the soundset for an aircraft in the future, I'll refer him/her to this video.
 
Ah, so THAT'S how the sound sets are done! [I had my suspicions....a fishy smell....]...;)
 
Funny stuff, YoYo! The jet sound is "as real as it gets". :mixed-smiley-010:

BTW, and OT can you tell me what the red airplane in your signature is? See below:

Didn't know a walrus could have facial expressions... The look while he/she wistles... Whahahaha!

That eagle looks like a navy fighter that forgot to lower its gear and takes the deck rim instead of a cable :D

Thanks for sharing!
 
Great videos, but it has to be said: "Top Gun Theme" is only a shadow of itself without the guitar antics of Steve Stevens. :)
 
Back to the RWD-9 for a moment,
I was just doing some research (for a possible FS competition event) and ran across what may have been the RWD-9's finest hour...

Challenge International de Tourisme 1934

From Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge_International_de_Tourisme_1934


"The Challenge 1934 was the fourth and last FAI International Tourist Plane Contest (French: Challenge International de Tourisme), that took place between August 28 and September 16, 1934, in Warsaw, Poland. The four Challenges, from 1929 to 1934, were major aviation events in pre-war Europe. The 1934 Challenge was won by the Polish pilots, who had also won the previous year.
Their success was not only a result of their aviation skills, but also of the technical features of their Polish-designed RWD-9. Due to their victory, Poland had a right to organize the next Challenge in 1936, but it decided not to, because of financial reasons."
