BLAST from the PAST pt.3

[cloud9]

This one was just a limited time download from Aeroplane Heaven. I'm very suprised it hasn't been showcased laetly because there was even a countdown by the members for it to be up for download. I'm sorry to say it can't be downloaded now but it's still a lovely plane. The Spitfire Prototype!!

Next is a plane designed by one of our members. As with the others it was in great domand and then just disappeared??!!

Yep. It's the Spitfire prototype. I've got the full package. about 25 different variants and liveries.  Only had 2 blades on the prop, but could still manage  349 mph (562 kph) back in 1936, barely a few years after we'd stopped using bi-planes.

Great series cloud9, thanks for posting them.

As soon as I saw the idea you had in the first set I thought of Milton's Spartan - & you didn't dissapoint me I remember all the anxiety caused waiting for this baby to come out, I think on it's first day of release, nearly every thread on the first page of 'Freeware' had a Spartan in it. A great plane with a stunning VC, one of the few I still have installed in FS9, I really should fly it more often

The Spit was the same aswell, I still have that tucked away somewhere - due for dusting off again me-thinks.

Thanks for posting all three aircraft,

TSC.

THanks all and TSC, that's exactly why I started this series. TO get people to dust off some of these classics. Glad to see I won't be disappointed
