I guess I should have gotten clearance before heading the wrong way!

I then decided to do some sightseeing in NY.

And of course flying around my home town!

I had a hard time flying because I was laughing all the while!! Belive it or not this thing flys great at all speeds!!
And if you don't have it you should, just because!! I found it at FSfreeware.
And now I'm going to email the creator to tell him thanks for the laughs and fun!!!
P.S. I also need to do some tweaking on the sim the pics don't look that hot!!

Ha! Ha! Ha! It'll be a sweeping success! I guess we have to, er, brush up on our witching skills.

Eat this Harry Potter! ....

When can we expect the Broomflying Ozzy style thread?

I don't see anything wrong with youre shots, groundtextures are always a bit strange on low level flight.

File name: stn2004
It is in 2004 aircraft section. It is called Nimbus based on the Harry Potter movies so anyone (omag) who knows this movie will understand it!
I personally know nothing about Harry Potter, I saw a download for a broom and said got to have it!!
There is a guy where I work who swears he's a witch!! I think he is a phyco!! But i printed off a few screenshots to post at work just to make fun of the freak!:) And no I won't feel bad about the minor teasing, He also thinks that Harry Potter is based on a true story and that the movie producers want you to belive it is fictional so the "real" Harry  can retain his privacy!
Oh yeah! He also claims that he can levitate, but can't do it in front of anyone it is against his religion!!
I'm levitating right now!! DON'T PEEK!  ;D

I know a civil engineer who still believes David Copperfield ( The magician) can fly for real.

Hi Fretnstuff. This looks like great fun. If you mail the author it might be better if you don't mention where you got it. I've known him for years & he's a tad particular where his files are posted. The broom is one of Shigeru Tanaka's fun files. You can get all his stuff direct from his own site. http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/shigeru/

Funny you say that, some little voice in the back of my mind told me the same thing! i didn't tell him where I got it from just thanked him for the hard work and effort.
Seeing things like that are getting me more and more interested in trying to design something myself.
We'll see!

P.S. Please tell me your not that "little voice" in the back of my mind!!  ;D

Good! It is a blast you get a great 360* unobstructed view!!
But I recomend getting it from his site:
http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/shigeru/

He has allot of talent!! And also a flying "Cutty Sark"!! It was made for FS 2002 but I'm going to try it out in FS9.
But I highly recommend checking out his site!!
AWESOME WORK!!
I wonder if he can make a flying broom how about a bird?
A Eagle would be cool, or maybe a Canadien Goose!! Not that would be neat!!
And instead of a normal flight plan you could follow migration routes!!!

LOL, that would be awsome, but it would take a LONG time (like 2-3 weeks strait)
