If you start the eagle creek fly in mission and decide to buzz the cattle and barnstorm, the old man (your passanger) starts making all kinds of comments. He talks about buzzing sheep and neighbors and mentions that he'll have to have his wife make a pecan pie. Also, when you barnstorm through the open barns, he'll mention his own barnstorming pasttime.
If you also buzz the sheep, one will fall over lol! It's a real treat for me because this is the kind of flying I love to do and I'm actually going to purchase my own Cub and some land out in the country.
Anyone else ever mess around on this mission? It's a treat.

Okay actually this is a hidden reward. I haven't successfully passed it yet. But you need to buzz 4 sheep pens and 4 barns, I think.

There may be 3 barns, but at least 3 sheep pens. One of the sheep pens are located closer to the highway on the way to the FLY IN, i think. I'm not 100% sure. But there's a barnstorming reward that you get when you complete it successfully (including finsihing the flour drop).

Thanks for bringing this up. I had already flew this one, but went back for this. There are four barns. There's one south of that highway with vehicles on it, from the field you take off from.
I didn't see any cow or sheep pens. Where would those be?
You don't need to fly over any pens to get the barnstormer award.
While were on the rewards topic, does anyone know how to read the rwd files in the rewards folder. I'd like to know other secret rewards for other missions.

Check out
www.fsxrewards.comAnd no, i'm not kidding. Someone really made a website for the sole purpose of explaining every FSX mission and reward...!

Just like you I flew really few missions above all at the beginning when I was learning but I hates them cause everything is already written in the plot so I don't feel " free "...
I remember the passenger heart attack mission, beeing on a game and on the reality I really missed the option to let him die cause my approach was simply perfect and I really hated to redo it from scratch
