"Those Maginficent Men In Their Flying Machines" take to the skies again!! :applause:

This style of aircraft is my favourite in FSX, just can't get enough of them. Forget the computer controlled juggernauts rocketing around the world now, or even the highly sophisicated GA aircraft that abound today.

Give me canvass and string any day! Oh how I wish I was around at the dawn of flight. :kilroy:

So I guess you won't be swapping in the default 747 VC,then?..........:icon_lol::icon_lol:


Thanks for the HU,Henry....and thanks for the addon Craig!
 
What's amazing or sad, depending upon your point of view, is that this airplane had a max useful load of only 162 pounds. I would have overgrossed this aircraft when I was a very skinny high school student! I was about six feet tall at the time. I seriously wonder how tall the pilots were back then?

Well I couldn't fly it now, lol, but up to 30 years old I was under 11 stone (154 Lbs) and 6' tall so I guess I would have passed inspection:jump:
 
She is a dream to fly, slow, yet she will climb like a rocket, a very slow rocket. :icon_lol:

I just had a wonderful one hour flight in her from Strom to Moss Field in FSX with FTX PNW, late afternoon PST time. Just total immersion and Craig's new addition was the perfect choice for my evening flight tonight. Kudos Craig and kudos Roger for the HU. Made my day.

Caz, looks like kinda chilly flying in that first pic. Or did you have a little something in a flask to keep your innards warm? :d
