Swedish delight

Postby ozzy72 » Wed Aug 20, 2003 10:10 am

Saab, Volvo, Ikea, and the Valmet L-70 Vinka! I found this little gem by accident and decided to give it a go. The Valmet is the basic trainer for the Swedish airforce.
It was made by Mikko Maliniemi and Kari Virtanen (who has made a load of great Saab fighters for us).
All I can say is anyone complaining about the lack of great freeware should look at this model!!!

Incredible VC, great detail and everything works :o

A quick look in from outside

Gorgeous spin characteristics, if you want to learn to spin properly, this is the plane to do it on
Image
Safely on the ground and a quick look at some more detail, including the pilots badges!
Image
All I can say is this plane is fabulous! The detail and handling incredible, and yes its slow but a lot of fun. There are two models, and each come with one or two pilot options!
Fabulous.

'nother good one Mark ! !....got it earlier and even went and played a bit to see who might get caught flying that trainer (posted in payware)?......its a bit slow, but handles not too bad for beginners.........Dave, you might not like the 23 meg download if you are still on dial-up, but I do recommend it.....its a fun plane........... ;)

Fun, its one of the best since either the Rafale or the Gazelle in the freeware has everything stakes. I've been pootling about all evening doing aerobatics, and I love it. Did some great low-level through the pine forests stuff too. Its a joy.

Ozzy ;D

I have been looking where to get this...and I have only found the one for FS2000.

Is that the one you downloaded?

Dave, you might not like the 23 meg download

The one I found is only 478K? ?

Cherokee, the model isn't here yet. I'm just awaiting Mikko Maliniemi's permission to upload it, I've already got a green light from Kari Virtanen (who advised me to contact Mikko), so just hang on a day or two. Its worth the wait, trust me ;D
