ACE-9

The prodigal returns, I am home amongst Spitfire fans, loving it. They are fantastic machines, I am luck to live a few miles (perhaps 2) from Woolston where the Supermarine factory was also Eastleigh where it first flew. I have seen ian ps dark corner, it's got some interesting stuff there and has been an inspiration for me to try and make the above. We shall see, you will be the first to know, but it s gonna take a while I think. Tally Ho old bean.

Brett and John for the welcome. For some reason although the link is shared it asks me to verify people. I fly a A2A acusim Spitfire and thinking of making the New Forest airfields for FSX, but its a steep learning curve, I have no clue about scenery / texture design I am just beginning to learn. I think it would be fantastic to fly over the New Forest as it was back in the day and land at RAF Ibsley, now gravel pits. Sad because it was the location for the film The First of The Few, a great movie about the Spit made in 1942 when RAF Ibsley was fully operational.

The nearest airstrip to Hurn would have been Winkton ALG 3.5 miles to the east. check out my WWII airfield map.

Hi just seen this and I am loving it, you are a man after my own heart Alan, fantastic shots of my favorite place, and where I grew up. Dad took me mushrooming on Beaulieu disused back in the late 60's I remember feeling the haunting atmosphere.
