These shots are out of this world  :o

Did you increase the saturation on these shots? I cannot get my Hamilton ground textures in FSX to have such bright display.

I couldn't help it... ;)

Ya know, it just dawned on me that he was referring to the aircraft livery...lmao... ;D

But I'm not sure which flag that is on the tail. It's not the Iraqi flag, that's for sure. I'll never forget what that flag looks like... ::)

[color=#0033cc]Here is the poop on the aircraft.

FS2004/FSX Persian Fury Biplane Warbird
========================================
Perhaps the more interesting Furies were the export versions. Standard production Furies were exported to Yugoslavia, Norway, Persia, Spain and Portugal. In addition, some ex-RAF aircraft went to South Africa, where they were used against the Italians during World War II. Yugoslavia produced about 40 modified Furies with cantilever landing gear and more powerful engine, and some of these wound up with the Spanish Republicans, and when the war was over, with the Franco government. Some ex-Yugoslav Furies were used by the Italians as fighter trainers with mixed markings. The Persian Furies had Pratt & Whitney Hornet radials, but these were later replaced by Bristol Mercury engines for added performance. So favored were the Persian Mercuries by their pilots,that they were flown as late as 1943. The only Norwegian Fury, No. 401, used an Armstrong Siddeley Panther IIIA radial engine, however the results proved disappointing as the engine installation moved the c.g. forward resulting in a tendency of the airplane to nose over during taxiing. The Persian Hornet variants, installed with a metal Hamilton 3-blade propeller, also exhibited the same c.g. problems.

Bristol Mercury

I did fly there. VOZ is nice, but no comparison to this. Fantastic shots Bob. :)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
