Heres another great feature of x-plane. You can drop any aircraft you like off the wing of a B-52. I thought I would try this rather nice looking Mig-23.

Here we go.

Image
See those contrails?

Image
Away we go. Its not night time we are just very high up.

Image
Dive.

Image
Get a load of that A/B

Image
We are approaching some pretty scary speeds now.

Image
Attempting to lose some speed.

Image
Full dirty config over the airbase.

Image
On finals (what a beautiful sunset.)

Image
It seems I broke one of the undercarraige.

Image
But I'm allright.

Nice flying and shots Crumbso, pity about that landing. Bit of a lethal crosswind? Or were you just flying it a bit hard?

Ozzy ;D

Since them sneaky Libyians knicked a b-52 ???

The damn thing would not lose speed fast enough and I was determined to get it landed first time.
