Old is gold

Post by tango234 »

I've been fiddling with flightplans to get this flying between East Kirkby and Duxford. I'd say it worked rather well!

And a bonus showing the view from the East Kirkby picnic benches.

Thanks John. There is never a bad time for increasing the number of warbirds flying around in the sim.

Looking very good, John.

Too bad there aren't any AI Halifax, Blenheim, Wellington, etc. :wink:

Yes, some more of those would be very nice. I still have hope that Dean will come up with a P/RF-61 AI.
Cheers,
Martin

Continuing on a theme, here is the interesting corner of Coningsby:

Yes, there are two lancasters.

All but one of the BBMF (the remaining one never had a repaint done as far as I am aware-maybe because the spitfire variant wasn't modelled?) are actually in shot, but three of them are behind the hangar! :roll:

I spent a few months working in that building on the left, rearranging the microfiche spares database and preparing it for acceptance by computer systems in 1979 - I was an ex-fighter pilot, and a shortly-to-be Hercules pilot. Sadly, all the aeroplanes were grounded while I was there, but me and the legendary Jacko Jackson, and a few engineers, kept the spirit alive.
