Again going have to watch that again , i want to go back to the first vid to compare Corsair , sure the AF model is missing more the deeper sounds more similar to the the FS's FW190 /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

Its a love affair looking at the workings within the wheel wells and the plumbing involved ... wonder if the oysters had some to do with it /unsure.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :unsure: border= 0 alt= unsure.gif />

Id buy the lot , but i'm not an entray .. endtary .. en .. arr forget it .. a rich bugger with a bitta spare cash /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> , few hours on the sim sure I could fly one of theses pups .

It is looking good , all this hype , let hope our UK NZFF visitor Adrian gets a look in or someone could arrange a looksie . /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

I could say , and many would say smart ass ... a cracking good shot /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif />

Thanks very much for this guys, much appreciated. Decision day is fast approaching, so I'll see what happens from here I guess!! Hugely appreciate your help, Joe.

Unless you're planning on doing the full PPL, CPL, MEIR, Instructor Rating sequence I would tend to avoid the flying schools purely because...

Better get Jon Murchison to put his hand in creating bits and pieces ... and who says flight simulation is a 'flight of fancy' .. oh that's right .. my Brain doctor /blink.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :blink: border= 0 alt= blink.gif />

That was great, thanks! Interesting to see how slow they taxi, or is it how fast I taxi.....?

Great plane , great paint ... now i do wonder how long it take before we see a PMDG J41 in this scheme /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> .. course had to upgrade winter is so cruel , the little 31 is for the kiddies /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif />

Congratulations, that's a big achievement and a flight you'll remember for the rest of your life, not that many people have flown an aeroplane by themselves so to be part of that group is something special.

Finally got to watch it in its entire , WWI the duels .. both engineers and aircrew , the stories - course the rebuilds .. /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> pity these are not showing on regular TV .. people may learn something .

I am SUPER Excited about the prospect of an airworthy Mossie (please tell me shes gona fly /unsure.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :unsure: border= 0 alt= unsure.gif /> ),..and that Centaurus destined to the Tempest ..WOW...freakin huge,...what part is that gigantic clockwork mechanism ?...amazing !

Yip it was a good day, will be nice to see the Yak 3 and Fw-190 together at some point. The 190 is having its annual done and should be flying again soon.
