Classic British Flight Sim

Just needs a contact point adjustment Nick

Certainly looks that way

Great pics Toby! And that wingwalker is a real looker. I wonder if one could take a wingwalking class ...it looks like a lot of fun.

Catching up on the points:

Re the C-3605, yes they said something to that effect about the long nose in the commentary, but it was in Berndüütsch, so I didn't quite understand all of it!

Yes, exactly why I posted this pic of the 146, definitely looked like fresh air between the main wheels and the tarmac. Not surprising in a way, since the approach is always performed with the nose a degree or two [img]below[/img] the horizontal, with the beaver tail spoilers already deployed and with the huge Fowler flaps, I imagine there's a lot of excess lift to kill!

There's actually two wing walking girls, the one sitting on the upper wing in the last pic is not the same one in the other pics. Both stunners though

That's what I miss in FS. A wing-walking add-on... replacing the follow-me car...

Hmmm, now there's a challenge. Is there a good Boeing Stearman model for FS? If not, then the challenge for a developer here would be to create one, with a lovely model on the upper wing of course. Perhaps her movements could be somehow coordinated to the aileron and elevator inputs? Ok, I'll stop here before I dig myself too deep a hole

That would be the Classic British Boeing Stearman then Toby??

Well, if it has a corker of a Classic British model on the wing, does that count?

Tempting.

Could always be released WIP without the aeroplane

Being that I' seem to slip right into them...

Might I suggest that a pair of parts jiggle up and down with the elevators...all in the interest of realism of course.


Now which modeler do I know that's good with Bristols ... hmmmmm...

Can you imagine the constant trim changes that would be needed to deal with the likes of Katie Price on the top wing?
