More FS weirdness...

Postby patchz » Sat Oct 31, 2009 12:42 pm

I just installed the Cricri in my duplicate install of FS9, the one with VOZ, and was trying it out. On maiden flights, I usually just use the default, SeaTac and don't bother with weather. It turned out to be a fun little aircraft so I just did some exploring. I made it all the way to Victoria Intl. and saw some flashing lights on the south side of the field that did not appear to be part of the airport system. The car standing on it's nose was spinning like a top. It's amazing what VOZ does.

This area is not even paved without VOZ running.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

There is just one thing this plane lacks:  A pilot. ::) ;D

Yup, empty cockpits always seem a bit "creepy" in an non-creepy sort of way.

But looking at that plane, I can only think, "Somewhere, two lawn mowers are missing their engines."   :D

I used to work on SIMNET* at Ft. Benning in the early '90's, which was a networked tank and AFV simulation system.  Occasionally we had terrain glitches where the tanks would suddenly pitch nose down and start spinning like that.  They looked like corks trying to go down a drain.
