It may this year. The boys are coming back to Mississippi in April I believe. The FAA paperwork was submitted last November and a few more taxi tests and possible first flight were supposed to happen but a few niggles were found. A failed microswitch on the port airbrake and a failed flap gauge in the cockpit. Worse was a fuel leak from the no.1 engine requiring its removal. XS422 never had the upgrade to the new fuel fitting which allows it to be changed with the engine in place. This has now been done. The air turbine gearbox was also replaced while #1 was out. If you want to catch one of the first shows there are four planned around the gulf area for the first season whenever that may be. A trip to Oshkosh has also been mentioned the last time I talked with Nic, but staying close to home initially. (Incidentally, it takes two stops to get from KHSA to KOSH with XS422 in the sim!) Come on over to Lightning422 on Facebook to stay updated as it has taken priority over the website. So glad Aerosoft put the group's name on the nose plug! Nice touch.I hope they get this one flying again at Stennis.
Did somebody say "Migs"?
Sorry to interrupt, but which MiG-21 are you using Zsoltquack? I've been trying to download one for ages, which is the only FSX native one I've heard of, but the only things I can find are modifications and repaints for it, not the original aircraft files.
I'm quite happy to translate Russian to English badly or just watch YouTube videos to learn how to start and fly it.
Cheers,
