Back around 2008 or so, I created an Edwardian Airshow by making an AFCAD for the front lawn of Chris Brown's Hardwick Hall and modifying almost every pre-WW1 plane I could find for the AI. I used the triple-runway trick, so everything took off from A, did a few T&Gs on B, then landed on C to get back to the parking area for a few G&Ts. Always meant to put some marquees and so on into it, but we didn't have the tools in them days that we do now... No scenery object of Sarah Miles either :(
Once they all got going it produced some wonderful sights - like a Bleriot IX taking off in parallel with a Dunne8 on T&G and a Farman-Voisin landing alongside them :lol:

Hello Mike :hello:

Yes.. I thought about PeterM and his multi-Hunter takeoff's while pratting around at Old Warden yesterday but I didn't walk into it expecting a massive job. It was a simple 2 flights a day from a tiddly assembly of aircraft that sort of went wrong :lol: There's only so much you can do with 6 parking slots and I don't want to start adding more at this point ;) I bet your setup looked great though :thumbsup:

Hello Dave - It was heaps of fun, but it really knocked the FPS around...must revisit it.

The pick of a poor bunch - shame they're not movies. I found the traffic file and that was a clue for the date, so it wasn't hard to find the pics.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

That's like 'Those magnificent men in their flying machines' but with a bloke on a horse :lol:

I thought about adding some really old AI to Old Warden but I don't like the idea of the poor souls sitting outside all the time. Silly I know! :lol:
