These are recent pics mostly taken while flying my favorite new aircraft -- The Christen Eagle. Im

probably the only person ever to use a stunt biplane as a sightseeing vehicle but thats what I do.

I also picked up the RealAir scout,Decathalon,Citabria package.  Its quite nice.

shortly after taking off out of KMMV

Thanks.

The Eagle is the most enjoyable plane Ive ever bought.  I dont know what it is about it.  Its an excellent looking model.  The cockpit is great.  The glass reflections are not overdone.

I just wish somebody had thought to make the GPS able to be seen at night.  I flythe trike at night and I dont have any problems.  I was landing at Salem after the sunset the other night in the Eagle and the GPS kept getting darker and darker...geeesh!  Oh well. I landed right as the cockpit was getting too dark to see.

The only other option I think it  is lacking is the ability to bring the GPS up in one of the panel windows.  I am pretty sure its not available as standard but there would be a way to include this.

Surely someone out there has modified the panel.cfg to allow the GPS to be displayed as a panel.
