Civil airports often still have a military appendage. While in Catania the Italian Navy also maintains a base, Brindisi Casale is not only a base of the Italian Air Force but also a NATO base. In addition, the UN maintains a base there, from which mainly relief operations and the transport of food to Africa are carried out. Today's flight could have been similar to the end of the 1st Cold War, a simple ferry flight.

Yes. I am busy :) You know I am writing reviews for the German FS-Magazin". At the moment I fly much the little "Tweety Bird" T-37 for writing a Review. Next are the Antonov An 2 Experimental Prototyp for an agrar aircraft named PZL Lala-1 made in Poland... And there is the Kamov Ka 32 Helicopter with koaxial Rotor. I like it to "fly the Forgotten and the Exotic..."
Longer Projects are "Operation Bodenplatte" and "Flying Circus" from 1C-Games and the Sturmovik-Team.

But right now I'm busy learning to fly the F-104G and S Starfighter. The one for Prepar3d from Simskunkworks is a hard piece of work. Yesterday I was looking for how to close and properly lock the cockpit roof. With the model you need the little things that are unimportant in the model at Aerofly2.


And then it is time for a new PC optimised for the Upcomming Microsoft FS 2020.. I'm glad about our hobby. It gives me the opportunity to remain mentally mobile. Many people who retire and have nothing like this are sometimes mentally derelict and I think that's terrible. I'm already looking forward to flying FS 2020 where it doesn't make much sense with previous simulations, especially in Africa and Indonesia for example, or even in Vietnam, where I was in 1986.

I am still looking for a NF104 Starfighter powered by HTP. That would be exciting.

This one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_NF-104A

To exotic. No Chance.

What You get at the moment to a lower price are the "normal" F/RF-104G

FSX: https://secure.simmarket.com/sim-skunk- ... -fsx.phtml

P3DV4: https://secure.simmarket.com/sim-skunk- ... -4.x.phtml

and the last of the line, the F-104S/F-104S-ASA from Italy

FSX: https://secure.simmarket.com/sim-skunk- ... -fsx.phtml

P3DV4: https://secure.simmarket.com/sim-skunk- ... -4.x.phtml


The F 104S/S-ASA i have "flown" in FSX for a long time. Now I have both packages for P3DV4 but at the moment no time to read the manuals and fly them to. You need to read. Ohm's Law alone won't work with this thing.
