Heh.



Sorry, but all your planes just got left behind  :D

The Catalina is cool as well though.

However, Concorde, as always, comprehensively kicks the other planes' collective arses.


That tiny white dot at your high 12 o'clock would be this kicking Concorde's arse. :D

The Aircraft is from RealAir

http://www.realairsimulations.com/home.php?page=home

The skin is from AVSIM

File Name: realair_nh649.zip

"This skin depicts the aircraft flown by FO. Burgwall of RAF 322 (Dutch) Sq. Burgwall was credited with 21 V1 flying bomb (doodle bug) kills while 322 squadron was stationed at RAF Malling from June 20, 1944 until July 30, 1944. Requires the RealAir original aircraft! "

If you have TrackIR the cockpits are stunning.

What kind of computer is required to run MSFX?

Not sure mine could handle it!

To run at good detail you need at least:

3.0  GHhz Dual or Quad core CPU
2Gb Ram
And a 8 series graphics card or above with min 512mb ram. FSX currently does not take advantage of dual GPU or SLI

Key components are CPU and RAM. 4.0 Ghz and 4Gb Ram you'll have it maxed out except for aircraft AI 100% at major airports and FPS will be locked at 30.

FSX had a nice performance jump with the last SP, taking advantage of multi core CPUs.

is that a widgeon?

     Sure looks like one, but the only one I've had any contact with was re-engined so it
didn't have the radials.

Storch--


"Shaky's" pic --
 




 it's Looks like a Grumman Goose--- had Pratt & Whitney R985's on it..(450 HP)

 The  early Grumman Widgeon had  Twin Ranger's (six cylinder,200 HP driving twin bladed props)

The "Super Widgeon" had  Lycoming G0-480 (270 HP, driving 3 bladed props) For engines-

I'm not entirely sure why some Goose's had Sponsons & some didn't.

 Both are  classics in my book !

... below is a Super Widgeon
