I-16 and Brewster: good news for Fin/Rus and AvA
« on: July 30, 2009, 05:56:29 PM »
Hello all!

Just to say I did a test run to the I-16 and the Brewster in MW MA and they are very nice aircraft and they will add much interest to Fin/Rus setup.

The I-16 has a low mileage but that may not be critical with AvA's lower fuel burn rates. The Brewster has good range. Both turn very well, better with flaps in. The Brewster is more stable and thougher. The I-16 has a very heavy nose. The rudder is, to say the least, authoritative.

This will be great fun!

Wow, the Global warming has hit Finland hard I see! :) Palm trees in Karelia! :D

I hope I don't offend anyone with this suggestion but seeing the Palm trees and the less than optimal coast lines, I think for the time being,  Baltic might be a better map for the Brewster vs I-16 melees...

Maker, I laughed when I saw the palm trees too.


I agree Baltic would probably be better.
