With only 125 hp, this little Enstrom didn't have any power to spare.

Your scenery screenshoots well - even better with 100% of the image and no black bar across the top. The weather is Orbx theme 5 using REX textures direct.

Nice pics!

I was just recently trying to put my A2A J3 down in Glenorchy with a 17mph crosswind. Let's just say that after more than a dozen approaches with the J3 hanging in the air despite my best sideslip approaches (tough using a twist-stick rudder) it didn't end too well when I pushed my luck. Bent prop and into the shop for an overhaul.

I knew it was marginal but it was great practice.
