I've just ended an amazing flight in a oldtimer bird. The Fairey Flycatcher. A fighter/bomber plane from the twenties with a 400 HP radial engine.
No fancy stuff like gps, ILS or autopilot ... Just lots and lots of flying fun! Add some nice surroundings and your up for pure enjoyment.
Found on www.fs2000.org ( it's getting boring, i know
)Zurich airport, a beautifull plane is waiting for me...
Airborn, hopefully the weather will clear up.
Gently turning this old one, she responds ever so vividely
Just look at the detail. Amazing, ain't it?
Time to go down, another nice little airport, close to the Alps
Approaching the runway, floating this bird...
On the runway, letting her roll, don't wanna flip her.
Engine cut, time to sip on cup of coffee - enjoying the rush of the flight
Well, i've got to admitt, flying the old fashion way can be very rewarding.
a-ma-z-i-n-g!
...!
