  1. Yet again, a prime example of beaurocrats meddling in something they know nothing about! F***ing idiots!
  2. December 1949, A lone Mustang out looking for communist incursions. Dropped the almost empty tanks onto something that looked a bit suspicious but had to keep low when the contrail of a Mig appeared at one point! The model is the superb WBS creation. Thanks for viewing.
  3. Superb Pics, One of my favourite Helos, I always preferred the Hughes/MD series to the Jet Ranger. Nicely shown off and great scenery.

    Tubby!

    Having recently purchased the excellent Gulfhawk, it therefore followed that I had to have the F3F fighter from which it was derived. This is a new release and the detail is, like the Gulfhawk, superb! There are several different colour schemes to play with and the look of this classic fighter has been perfectly captured. Also like the Gulfhawk she handles superbly and is great fun to throw around. Available from JF now. Thanks for viewing.
  5. I don't know about Tom Cruise but I call my Sat Nav "Bitching Betty!" and my little icon is a big black hearse!
  6. That looks great fun, pretty sure the FAA think it's illegal to go scaring motorist like that, and If i'd been that bus driver at 7.30 i'd be filing a report about a nutcase pilot scaring the hell out my passengers! Can you get maintainence to scrape the grass, ants, and tarmac off the bottom whilst you're there because it looks like you bought the farm in a few places! LOL
  7. Great bit of flying, check your undercarriage for damage after leaving it dangling like that. The Gulfhawk is a superb aircraft for this sort of thing as she's so manoevrable. Also I love a bit of Floyd! That particular track is something I want played at my funeral! (and I shall be checking! ) One thing you may want to remember, most taildraggers with sliding canopys, (and indeed other warbirds such as the T28 etc) are usually taken off and landed with the canopy slid back in case of accidents. It also gives better vis in the most critical aspects of a flight. Even our Spits and Mustang at
  8. Looks good, make sure you don't fly over Windsor Castle, don't want to wake the royals up!
  9. Great pics, certainly not the place you'd want an engine failure.
  10. Very nicely done, looks great.
  11. St Kilda lies to the West of Benbecula in the Scottish Western Isles. It's a bleak remote spot inhabited mainly by seabirds and scientists. It is missing from the default FSX scenery however this great little file puts it back and it comes complete with a jetty, a workboat and seabirds. Up on the top are some radio masts. There is no airfield on this remote place and the only way in is by boat, seaplane or helo. You need to fly west from Benbecula to find it and it won't appear on your GPS. Good old eyeball mk 1 is your only reference. I took the Goose out on a supply run to check out the plac
  12. JFs stunning new Grumman Gulfhawk. Not exactly the prettiest of aircraft but still beautiful in its own pugnacious way. She flies beautifully and the detailing is superb. Visually delightful, the Gulfhawk is a must for those who love classic biplanes. Personally, I love it! Thanks for viewing.
  13. May I wish you all a very blesséd and peaceful Solstice. May the Lady Hertha and the Lord of the Greenwood keep you safe always, May the lights that we shine now guide our way forward out of the dark times and into the brightness of the summer. So mote it be, Bright Blessings, Alan and Marie.
  14. Just bought this one, I had a freeware version for some time and she's a real beast of an aircraft. This new one looks terrific, will have to take her for a spin over the next few days.
  15. គ្រាន់តែក្នុងករណីដែលអ្នកត្រូវបានគេច្រឡំនៅតែយន្តហោះនេះគឺជាការដឹកជញ្ជូនធំមួយ។
  16. LOL! Yes it can be fun, Whatever language we choose, Have a great Christmas. Now will someone please identify this aircraft, you've had more clues than Sherlock Holmes.
  17. Похоже, у вас есть, вы бы хотели, чтобы назвать его и взять мяч?
  18. Going home for the festive season, Flying from Goodwood (EGHR) via Enstone( Had to stop for a quick "comfort break", that'll teach me to eat a Vindaloo the night before a long flight!), then we went up through the midlands overflying Birmingham and Wolverhampton, we then diverted for another stop, this time to top up the tanks and pick up a few last minute presents in Liverpool (EGGP). (one hell of a crosswind coming up the Mersey as we came in!) Departing Liverpool we headed north again overflying Woodvale and skirting Blackpooland Morecombe Bay. Then we passed through Walney Island(Barrow in
  19. Looks great Joe, not been all round the site yet, but certainly looks better than the last update.
  20. Very Nicely Done, Pilatus has a service base at Goodwood and we often see PC-12s in there. They are quite large aircraft but still manage our grass runways with ease.
