I really liked Dave's Stearman , nothing could beat it and nothing will for FS9 , ... YONKS .. yeah seems that long since had the oppitunity to fly a real PT-75 .

Nick , it is as basic as a Tiger Moth type but being built in USA , seems to be a little more sturdy

.. still yet to play around with it but since i went up in one few years back and first for aerobatics sorta has the personal connection .

Yeh true, hard to get stuff wrong when theres nothing to get wrong huh? Theres one here, Ill have to go hit them up for a flight.

by **Ian Warren** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:52 am

Just a thought , there is a patch for the Panther , dose not change the system that much but gives a for more options .

by **chopper_nut** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:55 am

It was things like switches going the wrong way and stuff like that. A2A has spoiled me!!

Yes indeedo STM comes with the package , then if your hanging around Tauranga airport and no the one your going to jump in that could be done as well plus the others .. course i'll have to play around with my Coke Cola ride ... least the owner of Barnstormers was hoping

Have to admit.
Ive been looking at those A2A products as well especially the Wings of Power III.
Not Jets but superb looking planes.

Only one thing to say , thats Hey A2A is the way , really are quite different , tried a MP yesterday comparing the P-51 and the P-40 ... you did not need to shoot , we Greg and myself were have so much fun just trying to chew each others tails off ! gotta edit 66 screens , wicked watching Greg go into a spin 'flat spin' .. got out of it .. really freaking amazing models ..

Far out Ian...I am trying to work whether thats a real photo or not.

The Stearman pilot here is a simmer hence the connection

by **Ian Warren** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:34 pm

This is an actual photo dated back to 1989 , the rest is edited - the Barnstormers team looking for a sponsor to cover engine cost , the aircraft is ZK-STM , me in the front cockpit .... camera shoot em guy
