Thanks Hinch - thought for a moment I was downloading a MiG!
I'm sure this will cause much delight in future
Edit:
Had a fly in it, and it's a great alternative for low 'n slow.
It has these full-width flaps which allow 50kts or so before you fall out of the sky.
Also has special additional underwing ones if things get really tight.


I looked at both FS versions, and to be honest, flying FS9 back-to-back with FSX I didn't find too much difference.
I looked especially at the VC gauges, these are beautifully smooth.
The model also has superb pilot animation in both flavours.

It's a such niceplane, I've removed the radio stack and replaced the GPS with a basic COMM radio and transponder. I just have my pop-up palm EFIS for navigation.

What point is a radio stack with no ADF or NAV equipment? Hehe

You can remove the wheel spats and the passenger in the fuel and payload dialog winkyy.gif

Thanks for the link- I downloaded immediatly and took it for a spin around Corsica.

Unfortuantly, it isn't really my cup of tea. Low and slow used to be the only way to go for me, but even the Fokking Triplane is faster!



Any ideas for a flight with this little thing other than where I took it before? I'm sure theres a little stretch of back country somewhere just perfect for the job...
EDIT: After closing down the sim and a little further thought, St Maarten would be a perfect playground for the Foxbat, just like the ultralight in the first FSX demo!
