FSX Amiot 143 Uploaded.

I just uploaded the Amiot 143 to flightsim and simviation, should be there tomorrow. This unusual plane went into service in 1933 and served into WW2 even though it was very obsolete by then. It is a native FSX Acceleration project. The copilot sat below the pilot in the gondola. I added a camera view to the gondola so you can see the underslung animated yoke. The colors are straight from the French swatches at the simmers paint shop web site.

It has some photos of intrest,

Thanks Paul!

Yes, at the time the french aviation industry was pulling out all the stops to achieve the ugliest aircraft ever... :france::medals:

Blush... I was in such a hurry to have a laugh I failed to notice that... ahem...

:mixedsmi:

And so thanks for the cockpit pics. Researching interwar french cockpits isn't easy. I tried to find some to model the cockpit of a 1/72 Morane Saulnier Ms.225 (lovely plane btw), but couldn't find any.
