Title: My new ride
Post by: CyranoAH on November 06, 2006, 03:26:31 PM

Some of you may remember me asking advice on an used bimmer as my new car, but I ultimately decided to go with something faster and meaner...

My old Peugeot will have to last a couple of years more, but I think it's worth it. :)

I now own a 6th of this beauty:

Sukhoi 29M. Vendeneyev M14PF radial engine, 9 cylinders, 400 HP. Titanium and carbon fiber body. G tolerance theoretically +10 -10 (they have yet to break one...)

And yes, I'm ecstatic :D

excellent choice Wolfala.  I have a Legacy model for FS9 which is smokin' fast and a lot of fun to fly.  I was thinking the same thing as you.

Cyrano, she doesn't look so mean, to me. Or all that fast, either. I bet I could out-run her.

BTW, nice airplane she's squatin' on.
