[Ian Warren]

Bugs , I put my fingers in my ears and started yelling Lalalalalalalalalal when you mentioned default !

[Splitpin]

Well done Dani , great lighting ... looks great.

[Fozzer]

Excellent shots.....Well done... ...!

The only sort of aircraft that really floats my boat.....(including default... )....similar to my every-day use...my trusty little Cessna 150 Aerobat... ....!

I must admit that going fast/speeding has never appealed to me on my various Motorbikes (Licence in 1950).....
...and the same goes for my Aeroplanes....Cessna 150/152....(and Default Cessna 172 like Dani's)...

I have always had/have a great fear of pain and injury...and death.... ....

...so I tend to travel about.... (above and below)...very carefully indeed.... ...!

Remember you don't get to age 80, with taking unnecessary chances...trust me!... ...!

50 MPH...air and ground.... is very nice... ...!

And I am always acutely aware of the California Highway Patrol....in my imaginary Cessna 150..and my imaginary Harley Davidson...

Paul.....'Frisco and the SFPD.... ..... ...!

[Ian Warren]

Funny.... all this for a default Cessna , wonder what Dani has created

[Naki]

Nice one bug but I thnk you could make any default aircraft look good!

It always fills my heart with glee when I discover someone else who also enjoys flying the sort of simple (Flight Sim) aircraft that most Pilots obtained their Pilot's Licence on...
..like the darling little Cessna 150/152... ...!

I fondly remember my recent practice flights time in the air with the local Clubs Cessna 150.....and a very big grin!

(..a long time since my Piloting an Auster Aiglet spotter plane in the British Army in 1956!).... ...!

Paul....C150 Rules.... ...!

Jeez , was a lot off drama , a neighbour years ago, spoke to chap chap about his years eleven years after the war, he was with a RAF unit but in security, on two occasions they were caught sniper fire, they caught one and he was in his mid twenty's and was a real Nazi fanatic.
