It is one from the Asobo "Reno Air Races" set. The screenshots were taken on a flight out of Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, out over nearby Lake Minnetonka and Lake Waconia - a common hangout for the warbirds that fly around the western Twin Cities. I hadn't planned on taking any screenshots on that flight last night, but I couldn't resist after all. It was really nice weather, with the wind having died down.

Very nice, but IMHO, if A2A ever made a Mustang for MSFS it would be a dream come true. :adoration:
 
A2A was actually involved with the cockpit model for one of the Mustangs included in the Reno Air Racers addon. I agree that it would be great to have a Mustang in MSFS with a flight model and level of systems depth that Accusim provided, but I would hope for far more accurate external and internal visual models of the P-51 than what the FSX/P3D A2A product provided (granted, the visual model was updated/changed quite a bit over the course of the many updates).

Yes, I totally agree. It just naturally seems that MSFS shows all older FSX models adapted to the new sim in a much more attractive light, appealing to all the senses.

The FSX AccuSim Mustang already has much of the MSFS eye candy, ..... and is already a great starting MSFS model candidate.

It's out. Has a few things that need fixing IMHO. I wasn't able to land it, because, for some reason, flying near Belfast, Ireland, the second time I've tried to fly into it (First time was a different aircraft), it always crashes my FS. No idea why. Anyway, we finally have the Learfan again. This is from Lionheart and is available in the MSFS store. Yaw isn't working right, I think. If i just think of touching the rudder pedals it yaws uncontrollably. But once he fixes that and a few other things, if you like this plane, you aren't going to find another.

Still a work-in-progress, but it's finally getting close to being done with just a few more small details to add/adjust. For the expedition in 1947, the original aircraft was outfitted with skis and photographic equipment, but with this repaint I figure it could be representative of a modern restoration painted as a tribute to the original. Although it still needs a very slight tweaking, the way in which the red paint is applied around the windscreen framing, despite appearing in error, is accurate to the original.
