"YAS"/yet another Spitfire? Just some stenciling to add to the lower wing and radiator fairings, and then I will have it uploaded. This depicts the current color scheme as seen on the restored Spitfire Mk.XVI RW382, based at Duxford (the real aircraft has the 'e' wing and the Mk.IX small rudder). It's painted in the markings of a Spitfire Mk.IXc named "Porky II", flown by Lt. Robert Connor of the USAAF 309th FS, 31st FG, which saw action in the Mediterranean Theatre.

Which one is the best so far?

Anyway I had departed Hilton Head today in the Longitude but life got in the way heh. My plan was to fly to TEB. I'll have to try another time.

Part of the nearby seaplane base, on Lake Winnebago. There is also a lot of static planes and camping added at the Fond du Lac Airport, just south of Oshkosh, which acts as the overflow field during Airventure.

 
Oh, I'll have to get that Oshkosh scenery. I can almost hear ATC yelling at the pilot, "We said the yellow dot, not the green dot!" :::pilot adds power to land on the right dot:::. Too much going on here for me to make it there this year, but one of my best friends will be there for the whole week. I'll have to settle for all of the YouTube vids. It would be cool if Mike Patey had enough hours on Scrappy to get it there, but I don't see that happening. Everyone who is going, have fun! Ken
 
Flying the "Warbird Arrival" approach into the AirVenture Airshow at Oshkosh. The Warbird Arrival is setup as an alternative to the Fisk Arrival, for all higher performance aircraft that can't maintain the low minimum speed requirement of the Fisk Arrival. The Warbird Arrival requires reporting to ATC when over the city of Fond du Lac, located south of Oshkosh, flying at 2,800 ft. From there you are cleared to fly north up to "Warbird Island" to report again and gain clearance into Oshkosh (or instruction to hold/orbit), maintaining 2,800 ft. Once cleared at Warbird Island, you either start a descent to 1,800 ft (for a normal approach), or 2,300 ft for an overhead approach. Flying something like the Spitfire, an overhead is required, so 2,300 ft it is. The overhead of course entails flying directly over the runway and making the break to downwind, midfield. In my case, flying yesterday, it was for landing on runway 27.

Parked at Fond du Lac, which serves as a reliever/overflow airport during Airventure, when traffic going into KOSH gets too congested or temporarily halted.

John-

Lovely- brought back many memories. We were there a few years ago, but chickened out and drove in. On the other hand, I have flown in to Sun-n-Fun many times- always an exciting arrival! Has someone already done an OSH2021 addon for MSFS. I tell you, that was the only thing X-plane had on us... not anymore! The community surge of altruism is heartening- makes the rest of the current rubbish goings on tolerable.

Thanks for the memories!

Anyone know if there is actually an "Ultra version" available?

I was able to download Basic and Medium but Ultra came up as "This site can’t be reached" (maybe my account isn't high enough)?

Darn!

According the official Discord discussion, the ultra was only available during the event from July 21-25th.

I wonder how different the versions appear in game.

Out of luck I guess.

Sigh...
 
They're probably making some compromises to get that advertised bump in frames. I started this process just over three hours ago and I still haven't started a flight. The first download was almost two and a half hours, then a couple of mystery CTD hiccups, and now I'm downloading probably another hour+ in the Content Manager. I just love these long nights... :banghead:
