The aircraft is the A2A Accusim-version, with repaint from here: http://www.bladerunner900.co.uk/bin/FSX/a2a-b17.htm

Jankees also did a wonderful repaint of "Fuddy Duddy" for the A2A model too, with less polishing, available from OzX, which I fly quite often as well, depending on which circumstance I'm flying the aircraft - back when "Fuddy Duddy" was still based in New York, with the National Warplane Museum, the metal was bare but it wasn't highly polished, which is like how Jankees' repaint looks - today, now based in Santa Ana with the Lyon Air Museum, the aircraft is highly polished and looks like the repaint by BladeRunner900.

Thanks John. Will have to see if my A2A B-17 will work in P3D V4. Will be nice if it does.
 
Fantastic shots John. I have this scenery too, and it is a gem. I was just watching an Air Daily X preview (movie!) for MBS the other night and D'Andre made mention of and previewed the abandoned strip too. I had never noticed it before, but had only flown tubeliners in so far.

I have also been on the fence re the A2A B-17 while the sale is on, and now I'm even more tempted, and am now eyeing off the Cub aswell. Amazing what a few good pics can do.
 
That knackered old runway has inspired to finally get my head around ground textures and .mdl's and all that jazz. I want that sort of look for my home strip.

Beautiful bit of design by Turbulent - that's for sure.:encouragement:
 
I love A2A's Cub but that scenery is really outstanding Bomber! WOW!!!! If I could afford all of A2A's aircraft I'd have 'em all!
