British pilot, German plane, poor Haiti

Postby ozzy72 » Sun Feb 08, 2004 6:13 pm

Well I found this nice little CFS2 Fw-190 package for FS9, and all these winter shots were getting to me, so I thought I'd go somewhere sunny. So as there are lots or riots and looting going on in Haiti at the moment I thought I'd try and calm things down by giving them a serious display of flying...
So breaking free of that sticky tarmac :P
Image
I couldn't find a bridge, but there was this nice boat... ;D
Image
Just hooning around in the glorious sunshine...
Image
Image
Time to see what people are up to (through their windows ;D)
Image
Achtung! A hedge that needs trimming ;D
Image
Tragically back to the tarmac (lack of fuel)
Image
Well I hope you enjoyed that hop in the sun. Now get flying!!!

Ozzy ;D

And if that doesnt work you have a few cannons on the wings that'll certainly do the trick:)
amazing shots

That'd calm me down any day! I'd be dead scared if I saw Ozzy flying upside down 6 feet above my head ;D ;D ;D

Awesome pics, well done ;)

although it looks very good,that plane doesn't work quite right.

the problem:
-no gauges and no folder containing them (or am i blind?).


funny problem:
-the rotating engine.

I've had no problem with the gauges Silent, but I noticed the spinning engine ;D

The Fw 190 had a fan behind the prop that was used to help cool the engine.  That's probably what you saw.

Keep up the good work!

Excellent shots Ozzy. That's a very nice looking '190.

The problem with that bird is it's range is only around 300 nm. Runs out of fuel too quick :-/

Alas she is a v.thirsty bird. But she handles a lot better than the 109. But ultimately for me its Spitfires or Spitfires.
But the true measure of a pilot is what he can fly, and how. And I've been giving the 190 a whipping, and she has responded beautifully. Even I have to admit she is a nice kite.

Ozzy ;D
