SPITFIRE!

[Ian Warren]

TEKAPO ...somewhere near WANAKA , the Mk9 so very simular to a Mk16 , the airframe , engine and gun arrangement , ... ever so slightly different but still SPITFIRE


















TB863 on its test flight

[Ace]

...Wow.

Looks damn awesome man.

Excellent pics Ian! I love to do this sort of flight as well, with the REAL NZ Tekapo scenery and RealAir Spitty in FS9

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 !

WOW! They are awesome!
I think i like the last one the best however they are all great.
Such a shame that they clipped the wings on this

Cheers

Good choice of scenery Ian, timeless beautiful aircraft.
Have to agree, though, you'll never get past the fact that those wings used to be elegant ellipses, before somebody took a cutter to 'em...
AND, Rob Barendregt has given you a cannon! (rcbsc-20.zip)
HOW long before we see that run over Wanaka then?

Mate those second set are shots are just fantastic- Real Air have done themselves proud with the FSX model, the gleam on the aircraft looks so realistic, and they have got the fuselage shape spot on. I love spitfires!

*applauds and weeps simultaneously*

Superb shots of what looks to be an AMAZING model, Sir Ian! Bravo!!!

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 it 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?

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 .

WOW ... that was close

arrrrr Dugga Dugga Dugga ... I got em !
