Another new toy at KPSP


Jack Sawyer

Recommended Posts

Steve posted some nice shots with his Cessna 195 so I had to buy it.  Tested it out at KPSP and I love it.  Huge cantilevered wing back then with no struts.  And it's very slippery, it seems like it doesn't want to slow down on landing. I like it.

Nice ride, Jack, and the sort of thing that feels like it really belongs at KPSP.

Thanks Andy, it's a sweet plane.  Well built and sleek for it's age.

Aha!   I see I've been a bad influence ;)

 

Isn't she a beauty?

 

And don't forget you have those "add drag only" flaps to help you slow down, the giant landing lights might help too - I heard an airline pilot say they did help slow you on the MD80/DC-9.

 

A great shot of a gorgeous aircraft...highly recommended.

 

I did cheat and add a GPS to mine though.

 

Enjoy your new toy Jack! :)

Money well spent Jack, this is a beaut of a plane which I know you will enjoy.

I guess there will be some magical shots of this plane chasing down some ships coming up.

Doesn't the engine make a great sound too.:)

Yup, can't wait to go ship hunting Martyn, just did a P3D hotfix today so I'll use it as an excuse to test it out.

I was planning on adding the GTN750, my most used device in the sim, into it via the drop-down.  Yes, she's a beauty Steve, thanks, and not expensive either!  Yeah, I heard the same thing about those lights.  I never liked that system, it's MD and not Boeing. :rolleyes:

Very nice and old school bird!

Thanks Jorge, it's quite a nice old plane.  I like the way they designed it back then.

Shiny shot Jack... you'll need to keep her clean ;)

Thanks Mark!  Like washing and waxing a car!
