A quick flight in the Mighty Hawker Tempest MkVI
Image
On the runway.
Image
A sharp pull up.
Image
Full power over the top.
Image
Fast and low.
Image
Wheels and flaps come down as I pull her round.
Image
Slightly off centre, but for me at least a nice landing.
Image
Now that was fun ;D.

The Tempest VI was the last of the three Tempest variants to see RAF service. Powered by the mighty 2340 hp Napier Sabre VA engine it saw service with nine RAF squadrons before being withdrawn in 1949.
The most noticeable difference between the MkV and the MkVI is the Tempest MkII type wing leading edge air intake and oil cooler.

This superb aircraft for FS2K2/4 is by David Hanvey and Paul Barry.

A Truly Beautiful Aeroplane and I heard it was very maneuverable and carried a wicked punch when fully loaded :)

Nice shots...Thanks

I got this from the Outhouse but I'll bet it's at Flight Sim too. Paul usually uploads his stuff here also so I would imagine it will pop up in a day or so.
It's a fantastic aircraft, flys really well.
Thanks for the comments chaps ;D
