we get to trap the Spad in FSX on Xavier Fernandez' outstanding carrier
 
I'm new to FSX and have only just started exploring the add-ons, but I recognise a splendid piece of animation when I see it - the main gear retraction is outstanding. Oh, and the rest of the aircraft is pretty good too. Thanks Tim! :applause::applause::applause:
 
Ya know, for a old "pistons & props" kinda guy I would have to say that this skyraider is the best freeware I have ever had..I would have paid $20-30 for this, and to think of some of the trash I paid for when I frist started this hobby. Who is this man named "piglet" and where do they come from? :salute:

Sweet - Having fun with the Navy Version on the Carrier, I'm sticking the landings everytime - :jump:
 
I'm afraid that I've had my fill of fun with Piglet's A-1H... at least for now.

I fired up my A-1H at 0910 hrs local time, KFCI is my local airport. No external load, just me and a full internal fuel cell. I warmed it up, taxied out and waited for incoming traffic. 19 minutes after start up I was barreling down the runway. I flew around for 31 minutes, then landed. Taxied back to my parking spot, revved up the engine, then shut it down at 1005 hrs local time. Total time on the engine today was 55 minutes.

Total fuel consumption today was 107 gallons of 100LL. The FBO at KFCI currently charges $5.01 per gallon. That's $536.07 for my 55 minutes of fun, not counting oil and the future cost of an overhaul.

This ain't cheap in the real world! :isadizzy:

Thank goodness sim flying costs so little. :jump:
