Fun in a Spit!

Postby Omag 2.0 » Sat Apr 17, 2004 9:18 am

Hi all,

Not a big deal, but i've managed to land a spit for the first time! Hooray! ;D

I was fooling around in the Italian alps when i suddenly noticed this funny little airstrip - Ambri (LSPM) - smack in the middle of those huge mountains! I just had to try ...

Just enjoying this magnificent plane.

Hey! our designated landingspot!
Image

Man those mountains are huge, and to close for comfort!
Image

Last turn!
Image


On the tarmac - was a hobbely landing, but i got away with it.
Image

Time to relax.

Pour les conaisseurs: Its a MK IV RAAF - supermarine.

Nope, Italian terrain mesh + Frensh mesh + German/Switzerland mesh.

All to be found on www.fs2000.org - search mesh.

Enjoy!

I still use Paul Rebuffats FS2k2 and CFS2 Spits in FS9 and they look great.
Omag she is a Mk XIV with bubble canopy, not a IV ;)
Nice to see you got her down in one piece though ;)

If you want a challenging approach,head over to avsim and search for "bc2.zip". Then pick up Holger Sandmann's British Columbia meshes as well and voil
