Well I haven't been doing too much flying, just testing lately. So this morning I rectified that by taking out my high-altitude Mk VII.
Building up a little speed.....

And over she goes to show those rather unusual wings...

Enjoying a barrel roll, those weird wings again

Just cruisin'

Back below 13,000ft, open canopy to let out that fart!!!

Final I spot that airfield over my right shoulder ::)

And a 3 pointer complete with burning rubber ;D

If you were at RAF Mildenhall then yes, and I do apologise for the fart, just going up to altitude without pressurising the cabin does cause uncontrollable flatulence. ;D

Let's see, you had eggs and sausage for breakfast, with toast and marmlade.  Orange juice, I think.  For kunch it was a Rueben sandwich, with...  Beer?  Last night's dinner was Steak and Potatoes with more beer...

Mark, you really need to lower your cholestorol...  ;D

They may be ugly, but the high altitude stability is phenominal! :o

Beautiful Spit (drool, an foam) Do you know if it is FS2K4 compatible, and if so, could you supply link.

Fido I don't know if she'll be 2k4 compatible or not. The original is an CFS2 model, available from http://www.sim-outhouse.com/index.php?l ... 2-aircraft
Some updated 2k4 versions of his Spits have been appearing at flightsim.com over the last few weeks, I think one of them was this Mk VII.

Nice one Ozzy. :D


Guys. I spent literally hours explaining in great detail how to install Paul Rebuffat's GMax CFS2 Spitfires into FS2004 only a day or so ago. I believe this is one of them. ::) ;)

Not owning CFS2 or FS2k4, and the fact I downloaded this a long time before Pauls site vanished I don't think I did too badly :P ;D ;D ;D
