VH-KDK Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I am out of breath after looking at this set Jack. I can just imagine some guys in the hangar frantically pushing the doors open wider to allow you through unscathed. Did you get through? Wonderful flying in this set and I didn't realise you could fly blue planes like this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog4Zero Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Bet he didn't. That's why the pictures stopped. Just an observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I could fly this blue plane was because I was channeling my inner Martyn! It was like you were in the back seat because it was blue. Your favorite mate!

I did but didn't have the time to take a screenshot. It was so fast, this plane hauls freight. I can do it later if you'd like. Heck, anyone can do it if I can do it.

Sniper31 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Those are some serious Action Jackson shots Jack, way to fly! And, I've been to Edwards a few times, and that scenery nails the desolation feel of it perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadtom65 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Hi Jack. Fantastic pics and is it the birdcage varieties as I have just got this, it was a free from the Cosford flight sim show. You all so had the choice of the old trainer called the Chipmunk you could only download one or the other from the Justflight store. Haven’t flown it yet but it does look good. Derek.

Damn, if only I had known I would have flown over from Australia to pick one up for free. Hope you enjoy flying in your new plane. A very generous offer from the folks at JF too. Oh and it is a very nice plane to fly. How was the show Derek? Quite a way from Hants, where abouts do you live there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a way from Hants, where abouts do you live there? Hi VH-KDK. We did live in Stubbington for years but six years ago decided to downsize so now live only a 1.5 miles from where we lived , a place called Gosport. The show was as ever fantastic plus the seminars were really good. Had a great time. The trip took me and my son just 3-1/2 hours. Can not wait for next years. Derek.

Magnum Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Hi Jack. Your "Corsair" would'nt have exaggerated a little with the rum at the Blue Perroquet's tavern? Just missing the garage exit Good job! Magnum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Derek, I grew up near Guildford before moving to Bournemouth while it was still in Hants, then Southampton (Shirley, don't call me Shirley!) and finally Eastleigh before making my way down under in 1981. Been to Gosport a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olderndirt Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Looking at #10 - if you add lift struts and rotate the cockpit and vertical tail, you almost have a Stinson 'Gullwing'. With the R2800, that would be a real bush plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
