I used to own this plane. Well, not quite this one - the one with this reg. The paint job of this one isn't quite right but I'll fix that when I have time.
Earlier today I DL'd Bill Lyons's Tripacer and I've just tried it out in one of may favourite places - Kai Tak. It's really amazing. The instruments are a bit newer than mine were but the cockpit is so incredibly realistic and so like my old one - almost identical really - I really am amazed. The look with the shine on the gauge glasses and stuff is brilliant.
People, if you want to know what it is like to fly a beautiful vintage aircraft then you just have to get this one. The sound isn't quite right - least not compared to my old 150HP Lycoming but the overall experience is fantastic. I am so looking forward to flying this one some more. I had it based mainly at Sherburn for which I already have some brilliant scenery installed and I've also got Leeds which I used to drop into from time to time. Pity there isn't a scenery for RAF Swanton Morley (Norwich) where I learnt to fly and where the old girl was when I first picked her up.
This is gonna be some BIG nostalgia trip :)
