Nice MkXIV there Daz, and some pretty lovely scenery to fly around.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Great shot, great plane. Is that your own repaint job?

Those are great shots, especially the fourth and fifth ones. And that livery, where did you get it?

And have you thought about using that in the air races?

i just changed the green and brown which i consider to be stupid for the air as it offers no camolfauge whatsoever (i know it does on the ground) to blue and erm blue simply by altering colour levels in photoshop 7. was gonna stick my name on the side of it but dunno yet and i might use it in the races once some are underway its a mean spitfire bit slow on the turning but then again im used to the mighty f14 and its flippin ace roll degree Cheesy

thanks for your comments guys
