Nice ones! I wish I could have more time to fly in this period (actually I can't even find some reasonable time for myself). Hoping to spend Xmas holidays in cockpits with my new Thrustmater FCS Pack. ;)
Cheers, Mav

Really nice! I'll bet those who first flew it thought they were state of the art.

Thanks JMav! Enjoy the new joystick :)

Lester, Stuart, nice screenshots. I particularly love those trees / the river, Lester
And wow, that gun... is it trying to shoot at the sun?! :P

Did you ever consider these:

One version of the Farman 40 was fitted with them.

For a 1916 replacement for the V12 powered Shorthorn it was an incremental improvement.

I just flew from Ochey to Frieburg with a full simulated bomb load of 4, 25 kg bombs, two good sized crew members and 3/4's tank of fuel ( about 220 pounds..) and it will actually make over 11000' climb with out dogging like the V12 Shorthorn does. It's still out of breath this high and only makes about 74 knots @ WOT and any Eindekker that gives chase would be dangerous company.

Le Prieur Rockets would be fun, but the sub-models I have enough trouble with. Just coding for the flexible guns on these is a pain. The gun skyward position is so the observer doesn't bang his head/body parts on the butt of the Lewis, it sort intrudes on what little room the Observer has. even though it's roomier than the Shorthorn, it's still a tight fit.

Just discovered this gem on the FGAddon hangar. Looks like someone put wings on a submarine!

Sick on a Friday night which is a great excuse to nerd out.
Took the A320 for a spin across the Californian desert on a test flight. Not flown these big birds in a long time but slowly starting to find my way around the cockpit again. There are still some question marks left (not sure if it's me being dumb or the plane a WIP) but at least I have a rough idea of what I'm doing ;)

Yes I might be a little slow there. in my defense I was playing around with the knobs on the FCU panel at the time :)

I'll do some more flying later today, if anything crops up I'll post in the other thread.
