The SimV Internainal Airshow - location revealed!

[F3Hadlow]

Yes. When I post the programme, with all the aircraft, and what order they'll be flown in, people can clearly re-post the links to them. Then, I'll add it to the main post.

Thanks

I'll be there with the Antonov AN-225, always a crowd pleaser! Mictheslik has offered to fly in formation with me in a Mike Stone C17, maybe the C130 would like to lead so we could have transports increasing in size?

[elite marksman]

Sure. I should be able to keep the old girl straight and level for a few miles. Hardest part is the turns, I'm impatient and and don't set up the turns properly. Should have it polished by saturday though. I'm just going to use the C-130 and do a  high-speed, dirty low-speed, and LAPE (low alt. parachute extraction, minus the parachutes and cargo though). Unless somebody else can come up with some ideas. Not much you can do with a Herky-bird.

At airshows I was always impressed by a C130 demonstrating STOL capabilities - landing as short as possible, coming to a full stop, then taking off again using as little runway as possible.

The RAF Hercules display has a tactical demonstration, STOL, dirty pass and a lot of tight turning. Certainly well worth watching.

[Mynameisnemo]

[cspyro21]

By the way, to get the Avro Lancaster (the display Tweek and I will fly) you need the FS2002 version here, the normal B.III not the "Dambusters" edition and the FS2004 update here

Enjoy!

I'm just wondering whether Dave Eckert's Stearman would be better to use. I've heard that Robert Sanderson's Stearman is quite heavy on frames, and it's 30mb in size.

Dave Eckert's at a slightly more modest 17mb:

I'll put you down for a display, but if you displayed the Dave Eckert version, it would be much appreciated
