Post by: Solar10 on April 22, 2008, 07:01:18 PM

I thought I would share this find with you all.  It's a great site on the beloved Mossie.

Yup.  Contacted a real Mossie driver on there when I had some questions a long time ago.

I flew a plywood & canvas aircraft last saturday. So now I am definately in love with the concept. What an incredible little hopper..... I had the ride of my life.

Mossie.... :aok

Thanks for posting that.  I'll add it to the rest of my aircraft links.   :aok

Now... I have to admit, I'd wish the AH admins would get the Mossi right and let it be the force it should be.   ;)  Fix the current model and get another variant or two in there.  :D

Well HTC got the mossie right more or less (some ineffective elevator issues still remain). The problem is the choice of modeling the flame dumpers that knock off 10-15 mph from its speed. Most mark 6's did not use them for day operations.
