TB863 , 1994 , Sir Tim Wallis,s adorned the clipped wing format until pre 1996 WOW , I prefer the clipped look on a Mk9/16 , it would'nt suit a BOB Mk1/11A , maybe the longer nose of the enhanced powerplant complements but then .. heck SPITFIRE they all look and sound Great !
They are awesome!

I'll do it myself if I had the time a/c & FSX - actually just thought not sure whether all the above fly in the same sim?Naki wrote:QUOTE (Naki @ Apr 12 2008, 09:07 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>TB863! - they have AFCs Spitfire!! - pity the wings are clipped (can you add the wing tips back on?).
Now you can have a great NZ WW2 warbird formation Ian! The AH Corsair (with its latest scheme), the Iris P40 (Currawong), Mustang x 2 (TAF & Miss Torque or Dove of Peace) & the Realair Spitfire. Thats your mission Ian if you decide to accept itI'll do it myself if I had the time a/c & FSX - actually just thought not sure whether all the above fly in the same sim?
This the Mk9 FSX Cilpped is whoops not with the REALAIR pack ... its me again .. indeed has the upcliped Mk9 , only external difference , basically the gun arrangement , for Tims Mk16 ... the early paint/aircraft also had the letter codes mixed up on the starboard side . able to do a full eliptical paint with stripes ... and yes make this a first post and complete , harvards in the hanger .. many others .. latest call on that Corsair .. works in FSX .. but issue with the panel and texture s .
