Nice shots Ben. Is that airport default scenery in FS9? If so, I'm going flying...

I have taken a ride in one of those! They have one at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. This little private strip south of me that puts on small air shows and mock dogfights with replics. I hope to get a job there this summer. But it was great flying in it! And nice shots. ;D

Wow!! A D25!! They have two 1929 D25s at Old Rhinebeck; it's a fun ride. This bird was built with that large front cockpit for hauling mail or up to 4 passengers... I'll have to get that one.

Neat! Hey Ben, there's a cool plane at AVsim called the Fleet 2 you ought to check out. You'll need to alias the sound to a different plane as it's a FS2002 plane and is aliased to the Sopwith Camel (which FS2004 doesn't have).
I also added a radio and GPS to mine as it is a non-ILS plane.
I can help you with that if you like.

The D25 has a bench seat in the front of the pax cockpit (one seatbelt- they cram you together!) and two small buckets behind that. It's a bit tight, but a lot of fun, esp. if you're strapped in that front seat with someone attractive who tends to grab you when she's scared!!
