Another nice feeware aircraft - once again no NZ connection but one was suppose to be imported a few years back but I dont think it ever arrived here.

The Poli seems to have one speed - slow! .. make sure you fly this in some nice scenery as you will have time to admire the view ..and dont idle the motor as it will conk out. Unfortunately the VC wasnt quite finished as the cockpit floor wasn't finished in the VC (there is no 2d panel) - you shouldn't be looking at the cockpit floor when you are flying anyway ...this model has some interesting flying characteristics, nice VC panel, nice sounds (maybe default though) and a very nice exterior and heaps of character..and is nw one of my favourite biplanes in FS9

for all its looks , it was one aircraft that caused a lotta headaches for the German army , the crew , a couple of Russian girls became heros and created the 'bed time charlie' myth , flying one of these dropping grenades and really given them a real hard time .

Pat Donovan had one at Omaka.
He brought it out from the USA when he shifted to Blenheim, it was rebuilt here and only flew a couple of times.
He had problems with the CAA trying to get it registered here so he packed it into a container and shipped it off.
I think it went to England.
