Well after mucking around in the Cub for a bit I decided to take the Swift out for a spin.
So I headed to my secret base in my 1934 Ford
Image
Decided to take the Swift 2 model up
Image
Image
The weather seems to be closing in, and I'm in the mountains :P
Image
The view from inside a ping-pong ball
Image
Finally get on top and can now work out where I am (about 30 miles south of where I want to be and heading the wrong way :o :-[)
Image
I decided to switch to the classic model for my final run-in
Image
Down safely, time to change my undies :P :P :P

Mark, I see you left the Ford sitting with the parking brakes on....good move, as I wouldn't want to see a classic old antique run down and immerse itself in that river......... ;)    ;D

The Waco and Tiger Moth are also available as freeware. I love the Moth, the animation of the pilots scarf and everything. Gorgeous!!!
Oh and the cars (and there are also some boats) come with the downloads!!! I haven't really got on to well with the boats :P ;D
