NIJE,s FSX CT4

[Ian Warren]

Introducing Nigel Booth,s ................. RNZAF CT4E AIRTRAINER


I started a multiplay session yesterday morning , leaving it open found another enjoying the model , Welcome Darek

As Flt-Lt Hayden and myself took off ...we slowed to let our new No.3 in the formation




Far better performance than the early CT4 .. this thing is as zippy as a pocket rocket

our No.3 joining , all the way from Poland , residing in the UK



Amazing and brilliant model ! Thanks Nije








with comms working , smoke , the hardest part is keeping formation for the screen shots

Time to break and return to Woodbourne

Nice one Ian i was out last night with Hayden myself trying out what you guys had been doing ,managed to do so good roll overs with the smoke and i think we did the love heart and the upside down one by the end of the night ,wouldnt mind doing the same today if you guys are up for it at some point
could get the fraps running for some of it ...

[Ian Warren]

Good idea Mike , Multi cam CT4 and i'll see who we can get

[creator2003]

Yeah im TS and will be around most of the day ,if i dont answer straight away im just up to something and will brb ,i dont mind starting the host on gamespy ether at NZWB...that back view you have there looking outta the vc is what i was looking at most of time ,makes life alittle harder doing formation looking backwards but this plane just stays put if you need it and flys well ,the roll loop was the best to watch out the back window as you see you both going up into a near stall ...thats the money shot right there

Yep It was great fun- The aircraft is stable enough for good formation work ("good" cough* cough*...It's harder than it looks!) but maneouverable enough for some good fun.

My lack of proper pre-flight planning came to bite me in the bum- I had thought we were only going to be pottering around NZWB but ended up going to Picton and Wellington and back (with a bit of fuel-burning fun in between).....I had only loaded 50% fuel to keep lite for aeros

I ran out of fuel with the coast of the South Island in site, throttle closed, mixture lean, prop feathered ignition off and fuel #### closed.......I managed to glide and land on the beach (I have no idea what best speed for range is? I was using 70-80kts?)

Ill post the pics tonight when I get home (and look at your guys- Photobucket is blocked at work


Good fun though

[h290master]

You were going around 80kts from the looks of it (was stuck to ya wing the whole time) the ct4 is quite sensitive with the ailerons which can prove interesting sometimes
