"Get in close with lots of Firepower"

[9thSimplex]

Ok, time for a 2nd one form my archives.

I love to recreate real stories and events of (military) aviation. I read about this one in the book Mr. Goebel wrote "Mustang Ace: Memoirs of A P-51 Fighter Pilot". There he explains his 1st mission in the P-51D model with the increased arnament of now 6 cal.50s.

You can have a read about this particular event here:

I tried to get this done as authentic as possible and hope you enjoy it.

Great shot, Simplex! I also thought I had seen it before, but I confused it with another, very similar shot. I love everything in your shot man! The lighting, the contrails, the props, the fire, the smoke... All fantastic! Good job!

Amazing what you gusy can do with fs editing! Really brilliant!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the planes are actually from IL-2.

Many many thanks for your kind words!

Yes, the planes are from IL2, well spotted! Although in that kind of edit it wouldn't make any difference at all where they originally came from. It is already a good bit away from a screenshot regarding how much has been done.

Best regards!
