Well I found this nice little CFS2 Fw-190 package for FS9, and all these winter shots were getting to me, so I thought I'd go somewhere sunny. So as there are lots or riots and looting going on in Haiti at the moment I thought I'd try and calm things down by giving them a serious display of flying...
So breaking free of that sticky tarmac Tongue
...
I couldn't find a bridge, but there was this nice boat... Grin
...
Just hooning around in the glorious sunshine...
...
...
Time to see what people are up to (through their windows Grin)
...
Achtung! A hedge that needs trimming Grin
...
Tragically back to the tarmac (lack of fuel)
...
Well I hope you enjoyed that hop in the sun. Now get flying!!!

And if that doesnt work you have a few cannons on the wings that'll certainly do the trick:)
amazing shots

although it looks very good,that plane doesn't work quite right.

the problem:
-no gauges and no folder containing them (or am i blind?).


funny problem:
-the rotating engine.

The Fw 190 had a fan behind the prop that was used to help cool the engine.  That's probably what you saw.

Keep up the good work!

Excellent shots Ozzy. That's a very nice looking '190.

The problem with that bird is it's range is only around 300 nm. Runs out of fuel too quick Undecided

Alas she is a v.thirsty bird. But she handles a lot better than the 109. But ultimately for me its Spitfires or Spitfires.
But the true measure of a pilot is what he can fly, and how. And I've been giving the 190 a whipping, and she has responded beautifully. Even I have to admit she is a nice kite.
