Yeah, my friend: this is a mission for CC-super-heroes!

not sure that there is a "stock" Tiger Moth included with fsX

I can highly recommend Ant's beautifull freeware Tiger Moth for fsX SP2 available => here <=

Thanks Marco...

Thanks Fled for the link! See you all on Sunday!...

I might be a little late but I would hate to miss this one...

Don't worry Gunter but you may want to check your plane for missing parts prior to take off...

Sorry but I am going to miss this one too. We will be on the road. This is the kind of flight I have been looking for and really hate to miss this one. Should be there the week after that though. Keep up the good flights.

Don't worry Lazyeight, we'll watch out for 'ya! (Anyone know how to sign his name on the bar tab? )...

Thanks Bush. Enjoy the drinks. I flew the flight this morning and it is great. You really enjoy all that scenery we have been buying. Those airports can sneak up on you so be careful. Have fun tomorrow. The flight will be much better flying with the group.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad News

Tonight my Flight rig decided to go tits up, I'm writing this from my old crate PII.

Hopefully next month I have the dosh to replace the MoBo and the CPU and salvage the rest of the stuff to re-use it again.


fled

Oh no, Fled, that really is bad news...

OUCH!!! Good luck Fled and we have our fingers crossed for 'ya...

Thanks Marco for preparing this wonderful flight. You choose a very scenic route and showed us quite impressively how different the stock FSX is from the ORBX scenery (since the destination lies outside the ORBX world) and all this in that excellent Tiger Moth, all in all a perfect flight!

Yes, thanx for that flight,!! I had a lot of fun and I think, I will take the Tiger a bit more now for such trips! And the route was great, especially climbing to 7200 was quite exciting!! Idea: Perhaps - if all have it - we could make a trip with the A2A PiperCub once...

See you!
