• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

OT (sorta): Lockheed DL-1B Vega Restoration

With the recently converted Lockheed Vega for FSX by Full, I had to share this.

Look to see this one flying in the not so distant future, finished in the markings of a USAAC YIC-12 Vega. The amount of progress that has been made on this airframe, in such a short amount of time, is absolutely amazing. This is one of the few Vega variants that had an aluminum constructed and skinned fuselage, where as most of them were of wood construction, coated in fabric. The wings are of the standard wood and fabric coated construction.
