Great shots fido, Is that golf coarse in the default scenery? Looks a little square......

PS. To change it, upload the Image (once you've decreased its size) in the same name as you did before (in this instance PATTERNPLAY.jpg) and it will overwrite it.

Resized the image for you. It's now down to 84 KB

It must not be a GMAX model due to the propeller not showing

Nice shots Wink

Yes the golf course is default, and it is alittle square, I know because that is a rep. of the airport less than 1mile south of my house. Thanks for the information.
Andrew:
Thanks for the resize, you're right, it is not a G max plane, it is an old FSDS1 1%er from AvHistory. I can't find any in Gmax. First RAF MustangIIIB I've ever seen in FS9, except for Hagars, but his is a U.S. P51B, though a Yank, I prefer Fighter Command.

Well Fido. Seeing I only tried it for your sake in the first place I suppose I might as well post a shot of mine. Tongue

PS. Glad you finally fixed it. It might take a while sometimes but we usually get there in the end. Wink

Just between you, me, and the walls: I think we have two of the best looking 'stangs ever made, bar none. I know I will catch flak over this but, IMHO, the Mustang MkIIIs and Mk IIIBs were far better looking than any of the other versions of Mustang ever built. Yes, including the P51Ds through P-51Ks.

Wow, good lookin Stang's Fido & Hagar, I also think the B models of the P-51's are the best lookin. I wish I could find the first one the RAF recieved which was the A-36 Apache. You know,the one with the dive brakes.

I found the RAF muatang at AvHistory http://www.avhistory.org/ look under CFS2 1%, it's listed under,what else, British fighters. Glad you liked her.
SabreHawk:
I'll keep a eye out for a A-36. I didn't see one at AvHistory.

Can't help out with the A-36, but you can find a Mustang MkI here http://www.duxford.legends.btinternet.co.uk/

It's an older CFS2 model but it's the only early Mustang (Allison engine) that I know of.

I agree with you both totally here. The Malcolm hood version is by far the best looking Mustang and the B/C was faster than the D.
I have this AvHistory MkIII and it's just fine, but the RAF tail flash is missing! When you do your Storch crew repaint Fido pal, you may want to add the flash to your Mustang Wink

I'm not sure how to do the repaint, but I am trying to find the right location for the tail flash, even then it might prove difficult, I know the tail texture is not exact. Oh well, neither will my tail flash. I'll post it if I ever figure it out.
