Tri-motor that is, from the co-pilots seat :) some in flight and some from on the ground...

I've always liked how the Tri-Motor looks like a flying silo with its corrugated tin-looking skin. ;)

I was hoping for some interior shots... well done. ;D

So I'm dying to know: did you manage to hold your altitude while turning? I've found that the lag alone makes turning the FS9 Ford quite an interesting experience, and the rudder is like an afterthought- hard to tell when to push on it, or how much.
I really ought to spring for some right-seat time in that Ford when I go to Oshkosh this year...I'll be sure to bring my logbook.  ;D
