It's summer, blue skies, beautiful scenery.
What better way to enjoy this than from an open cockpit?



More bigger ones here:


Think the Stearman is Dave Eckert's (?) and scenery of course the revised Godzone Coromandel.

My joint favourite bi-plane along with the Tiger Moth, very well presented in your slideshow. What are you using for the camera angles, FS Recorder module?

I really do enjoy flying Dave Ecket's model too, reminds me of the many times I saw the 'Utterly Butterly' Wingwalker team displaying the real life version at airshows in the UK:

I've sat in the cockpit of this one on the ground too ;)

Oho...should've known that would lure the mad Stearman crowd...
Wow what great pictures guys, that machine just asks, doesn't it?

Trolly, camera is just done with F1View, mousing around, and then cropping.
I have 1900x1200 pixels or so, so can lose a lot without sacrificing quality.

Good stuff- I use F1 in conjunction with the recorder module custom views to get simular results, but I only have a 1024x768 canvas to work with ;)
