Just started spending some time in the 205.... had a great fight with PotnPans that ended with me clipping a tree. Look forward to flying another Greebo skinned plane. Man is he getting good at those or what!

This stuff is getting so good HTC can put out a deck of trading cards for the company staff and players who contribute for the new releases.

I want a Greebo No. 1 card in mint condition in the original wrapper.

Great detail on the San Giorgio Gunsight Type C.... :aok

One odd thing I discovered while researching Macchi C.200/202/205 series of fighter aircraft is that the left wing was built 9 inches longer span than the right. This was an attempt to overcome the uneven lift at the stall caused by propeller airflow over the wing roots. A different solution to this problem was the leading edge spoiler used on the RH wing of the Corsair. Might be why it flies a little oddly. IIRC the LW pilots who flew it rated it as having poor departure characteristics.

Awesome!!

Great job Greebo and Superfly!

Several times I've really wanted to fly Macchis but the dated artwork kept me out of it. Hopefully Gatt and Gianlupo see this ASAP, it's been a long wait. :)

This would have been great opportunity to research and add the C.200 as well. Probably won't happen, though.

Would love this flying bathtub for bits! :)

Greebo, do you have any extra skins for Macchis coming as well? Just asking because you usually make more than one for these new models. ;)
