Great flying Mark and a fantastic aeroplane :)

Always like to see posts of bi-planes, tri-planes, float planes and flying boats.  I think they are Great.

Thanks for posting that one.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

The Stampe really is a great aircraft. Are there other ones like her out there?
(I've already got the Waco Classic)

I'm not sure if there are a lot of bipes out there. There was an outstanding Stearman Kaydet that came out for FS2002. Works in FS2004. You can get it here.

There are a few early biplanes over at Avsim including the Curtiss Kruse, Reimes Racer, and Vin Fiz (here as well). There are a few WW1 aircraft including the excellent Sopwith Coukoo.

If you want to spice things up and add an extra wing. There are three excellent WW1 tripes at Sim-Outhouse. The Sopwith Triphound, the Fokker DR1, and the Pfalz DR1.

Bill Lyons has recently let a number of his aircraft become freeware (packages 1-5 I believe)


He released them as freeware last August ;)

i know a guy (who sometimes is my instructor) who owns one. in the neighbourhood there are a few others too and when the occasion is there, they often perform a formation with three of them...pretty cool sight!  ;)  :P

by the way, at Deurne is a Stampe meet i think this month...if you would be interested  :)

Nice work!
