Noddy's screenshots reminded me about a small update I wanted to do for my repaint of TB252. The updated version has now been uploaded: https://flightsim.to/file/16363/spitfire-mk-xvi-tb252-n752tb

There are just a few minor changes - the most noticeable is the removal of the Free French flag insignia from the starboard-side fuselage, as I have seen some more recent photos now showing that it was only applied on the port-side.

TB252 won the Grand Champion and People's Choice awards at the National Aviation Heritage Invitational held during the Reno Air Races last month.

Hello John,
Beautiful work as always!!!
Did I already ask you about a repaint of Spitfire MK959 (N959RT)?
Cheers,

Stéph.

Finally had one flight that pushed me pretty much to the limits. Norway, Stavanger to Alta, exploring the polar circle. Weather was immediately moderate at best, taking off in rain, climbing to FL200 trying to clear the clouds. After a while I found a clear layer between the clouds, even managed to spot some ships along the coast. Than some more clouds, deicing turned all the way up but I forgot the prop de-icers. I was loosing speed while the engines where pushing pretty hard. Got that sorted out, but it went dark a lot faster than I expected. VOR ranges were actually a lot lower than stated in LittleNavMaps so Navigation included more dead reckoning than I felt comfortable with. Also some turbulences were rough enough to deactivate the altitude hold function, I guess it also gave some purpose to the barf bags

. Than to make things interesting finally, my COM1 / NAV1 unit went dark. Flying into darkness with no/low visibility and missing an important piece of ILS equipment is not exactly the situation you want to be in, I guess.
Managed to sort things out, found the breaker for the Bendix unit (not on the main circuit breaker "wall" but on the lower right side), got navigation back on track and managed a good approach to a dark snowy runway.
