A one off...

Seen over the East Anglian countryside yesterday..

While 'in between' FD's on the Mossie yesterday afternoon, I thought I'd go up and follow one of the AI Victors out of Marham :)

Scenery is FSX GenXv2 with Treescapes.. AI Victor courtesy of ACG for use with their Marham package.. Vulcan by Iris ;)

It's a shame that the poor old Valiant seems to get missed by all'n'sundry :(

Cheers mate :) ACG's Marham is set early 90's so the white B2 with hemp K2 is a bit out of kilter but I fancied taking an anti dazzle B2 up for a spin ;) Will have to try it again sometime with a hemp Nimrod :thumbsup:

Hello Mate :hello:

No.. not had time to follow one of these girls up to FL180 yet :) I have tanked in FS9 with the Lago Tonka.. not as easy as it looks with the catchment area of the VC10's drogues at default. Easy to run out of fuel before you've got any on :lol: I'm testing the Mossie out of Marham so spend as much time goofing as I do flying :lol:

Yes. Very nice picture. But bloody well get on with testing that Mossie before DG loses interest again :-O

There are prospective, er, 'customers' out here who'd like to have a crack at one before we pass away 8)

Ian :lol:

He won't lose interest this time Ian. The project is rolling fast enough for it's own momentum to take it to it's end which in this case.. seems to be on your pc :lol: Plenty of testing done today.. had her up to over 28000ft ;) DG's list of things to do doesn't seem to get any shorter but if Ben and I don't say anything now.. you lot will later and we don't want that now do we :lol:

Ian, must say I highly approve of the new Avatar, much more "British" :thumbsup:

There is an Alphasim Valiant update at the Pond if that helps :|

Yes mate.. I already have the old Alpha Valiant. Sadly, it didn't handle very well straight out of the box.. I brought it when it came out :worried: Depending on how it was built.. it may work in FSX and if it does, could be a suitable candidate for AI ;)

Ben.. yes, Ian's new Avatar is more in keeping with his persona isn't it ;)
