To LOWI in the XP-56

Finally got some flying time. Came out of Munich, but weather a bit grim so screenshots don't start until we're quite a way towards the mountains. I really rather like this XP-56 - it's fun to fly, has a great cockpit view, and really feels like it's zipping along.

Side on is not its best view, particularly with the wheels down - it really shows its stubbiness. In flight though, and from other angles, I think it's really rather pretty!

Somewhere down the line I hope to teach myself how to repaint, and I will definitely get myself a personalised XP-56!

Very Nice Shots Andy ! I like the plane a lot !

Thanks, Mikee, and I heartily recommend the XP-56. I'd have happily paid commercial money for it, and yet it's freeware.

Thanks John, I do find the weather adds a lot of atmosphere, if you'll pardon the pun.

Loved them all Andy, it looks like a mashup of a Gee-Bee!

Cheers, Jack, and wouldn't this be a buzz if it had all the Gee-Bee type repaints available!

Well done Andy! Good to see you posting! :)

Cheers, Paul. Had a busy spell, and probably got another one coming up, but it is nice to get some sim-time in right now

reminds me of April in England

And that reminds me of the time I was at a car hire desk in LAX one trip, and the guy on the counter heard my accent and said, apparently quite seriously, - "hey, you're English! Do you know Dave, in London?" I forget my actual reply (but remember several of the ones that passed through my mind)
