FS2020 / Captain Sim AC-130J.
Just arrived on the market....I'm not getting caught up in the "wrong cockpit" bs , the exterior is great and that's what I paid for. The old style cockpit works for me , and looks good.

Now, if the Captain would only revive the LC model of old ...

That's a truckload of trouble for the Bad Guys..
Great shots, SP.
The original "Angel Of Death " was an AC-130A called Azrael ( I think that's the correct spelling) and was one of the first 130s built and converted to a Gunship.

Heck of a machine, always wondered about specific applications of it, though.
Does it do more than Special Ops?

Also: What's wrong with the Blackbird version?

Ta, Marty for the message....
I managed to see your screenshots, but only by using the "secret server".... :ph43r: .... to connect to ffnz....!
It involves a lot of faffing about with the alternative... :ph43r: .... server, affecting my log-in details, saved passwords, etc...etc... every time...which thinks that I reside in Greenland...(Charl)... And it would be very nice if I could watch them on my regular Microsoft/Google/Chrome Browser.... :rolleyes: .....!
It only affects Marty's and Dani's screenshots.... :( ...!

Anyhoo...those monster planes are far too big and heavy for my Bush Camping on sandbanks, on the rivers.... B-) .....!
I'll stick to my little Ultralights!.... :) ...!

Paul....somewhere in Greenland...close to the North Pole...where it's very cold... :wink2: ... :wink2: ... :cheers: ...!

Charl, yes, the AC-130J is only Special Ops.
Used for armed reconnaisance, close air support and battlefield air interdiction...although I can't see the difference between the first two.
