.. isn't that how they wrote off prototypes 1 & 2 ??

Is the FS2004 or FSX? Did you get a prop fix for it? Not that I really care ... honest!!!

Really like #2 of the Herc

Looks something like a plane in an old 'Mad Max' movie.

and with that , thank the jezz no one decided to put snow shoe,s on to it , due the size of them they would have a spare ... guess mount one on top (on the roof) in case Marty lands one downunder

its like the designer got a bunch of plastic model kits ,tipped em into a bowl gave it a stir with the big old ugly stick , threw in a tub of no more nails then emptied it out and waited for it to set,..then busted it with a large hammer..then glued it back together !!. Sorry Marty
