news just in... the USAF has decided to have constant surveilance round the shuttle launch pads after witnesses described several ugly old men stunt flying underneath the pad. this comes only weeks after some nutter flew a 747 under the golden gate bridge inverted sources believe its the simviation lot again...more on this later.

Nice shots Ozzy!

One question though....and this may be a horribly dumb question.....


But...you have to disable crashes in order to do this correct? And if you disable it....how do you know if you made it or not?!
Yes I know you can have smoke on but is that the only indicator as to whether or not you made it ok?

Nicely done though....

Its a nice big space, if you can't get a Tiger Moth through then its time to tie the labrador onto the wings for guidance ;D ;D ;D
If you want to check your own performance (I had Ken chasing me on this one) then replay the trick and watch from Spot View and you should be able to analyse it ;)

THanks Ozz....I am able to do it too... but just wanted to confirm that you DO have to turn off collisions... right?

Unless you like concrete sandwiches... yes collision off!
The same for the An-124 under the Eiffel Tower trick, or the Sky Baby across Tower Bridge stunt...
Happy crashing ;)
