A Bear and a Cat...

...in the one aircraft, Grumman F8F Bearcat. This is a great download that I found while searching the libaries. I am really into this aircraft at the moment. It's was one of the fastest piston-engined aircraft ever and it has great manoeuvrability. I certainly recommend this aircraft. Pics taken in FSX around Oshkosh. Enjoy...

MAN ! That is one ugly bird.
Compared to the sleek lines of a Spitfire, a P-51, a ME-109 or even a P-40,  and clearly this is the ugly duckling in the family.  ;D

( although I'll wager the guys who flew in her loved her. )
