#1 was my main "also ran" pic - but Mt Cook looks like an over-sized ice cream cone, so I dumped it. #2 was OK but not wintery enough ... #3 was better, but somehow lacks drama.

There's something about that Wilga that reminds me of the bloke that went up Everest with those artificial legs ... but it's a great little plane to "fly" in FSX. You have to nurse that engine at that height/temperature, using the vents, carb heat etc. I love it!

Now thats really a plane that seems to be missing something ... can't quiet put my finger on it .

I wanna see some water skiing

Marty , had it been a 747 you may need my legs as well

Designed by committee and not everyone was at the meetings. Good old dependable mountains though - a split second before the Wilga struck one would have increased the drama.

Nice shots of a ugly little b...er..will add mine to this thread when Im at the right PC

You know how some aircraft, spitfire, C-130 Hercules, Catalina, DC3 to name a few, look good from any angle.


The question I have is, does the Wilga look good from ANY angle?

Only from the inside when you are really flying , then its the views that count ..........."Wilga rejects"
