This should really be in the Fs2004 forum.
But seeing how it's not, I'll just have to make it legit.

Keep in mind that shot was taken in Strike Fighters.
As for everything related to SF/WoV, CombatAce should suffice.

Hey Scorp, you're hard to please! What about the Vistaliners 727 in the AA or AA retro colours? It's fantastic! Or the FFX 737-300? Classic. Not to mention David Maltby's VC-10 and Trident ...

;)

3. Grumman Goose by Bill Lyons
4. Christian Eagle II by LIC

8. Lockheed Martin F-16 by Kirk Olson
9. JR Experimental 01 by JR Lucariny
10. B-29 Superfortress by Tom Kohler

My current number 1 is bill lyons s-43.  I put the autopilot from the avro anson in it, which makes the plane like 5 times better.
