Well here are LOTS of photo, the most memorable part for me would have to be the DC3 the sound and smell of those 14 Cylinder Pratt & Whittneys thundering down the runway - that sound will never leave me!

Very good. I wish I had access to those photos of ZK-AMY when I was painting my version of it.

Have you done a Repaint for FSX? - Would love one if there was - also I forgot to mention that ZK-AMY will be in permanent storage in February in the Ashburton Aviation Museum so it was the last chance anyone had to travel in AMY - very sad! sad.gif sad.gif

Well I've done an FSX paint for the Just Flight DC3 but it's a little rough around the edges and I'm not sure that many people have the FJ model. It was mainly an exercise in frustration!
