No work tonight so I'll be there. Now let's find a plane slow enough to fly this hop. J3 Cub perhaps?

Hello Crash...!

...just make sure your Cub is fitted with fat Tundra Tyres to allow you to bounce your way through the vegetation, etc, at the tops of all those mountains when your carburettor is gasping for air.... ;D...!

As I need my Bendix-King radio stack, it looks like the default Cessna 172 Skyhawk for me...(fuel injected engine).

Cheers Crash... ;)...!

Tested the J3 a moment ago and its climbing speed is way to poor to get over the hills >:(
Than spotted the Auster Mk 5 in the hanger and its perfect :D easy climbing and crusing at 90 knots, and a joy to fly :)

Tee-Hee...!
Yep...I have the lovely little Auster MK V....but it doesn't have a full set of radios which I need for navigation... ;)...!
So it's the default Cessna 172 Skyhawk, which I guarantee will show up in the flight...;D...!

All my FS Global SRTM Mesh, Special Edition, (12Gb), safely installed...

..the aircraft is Default, you just may not be able to see my new paintwork unless you borrowed my tin of paint and my paint brush.... ;)...!
LOL...!

It really is the Default Cessna 172 Skyhawk, so it will show up as a Cessna 172 Skyhawk.....trust me... ;D...!

Whereas anyone flying a Marchetti SF 260 with be relegated to a Cessna 172 Skyhawk....as usual...;)...!
