On Sunday I went for a flight with Clipper and Spyro over the Alps... Provencal style!

Two Breguets... almost too good to be true.....!

Spyro and I left Lugarno in the Breguets, Clipper in something more comfy. Shortly into the flight Spyro discovered that his Breguet was almost uncontrollable...so he changed to something else leaving my double decker as the only one cruising the Alpine skies...

A couple of other guys came with us, Tinmanjr and someone else, and did a good job of keeping up with my Breguet... Here we were negotiating the high peaks, very exciting stuff it was too...

Thundering through the skies with the two light aircraft in hot pursuit, in flypast mode, it reminded me of a colossal spacecraft pursued or escorted by fighters, rushing past the screen, first my monster, then first one then the other light plane, whizzing by in a thrilling dynamic manner not dissimilar to this:

"NNNNEeeeeeeaaaaaaaooooooowwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I put my wheels down to lose some speed and allow my escort to stick with me...

We got to our destination, Interlaken, by more luck than judgement and touched down...

After flying in Egypt I did a bit of singleplayer, just me and this fabulous ellipsoid beauty... and shot a couple of screenies in the early morning light....

I'm in love! Krigl 4 Breguet Provence 4 ever!! Cheesy

Thanks for looking in guys!!!

Cheers

Krigl

ps. A lot of pics I know. but I think this thread is within size restrictions... and the 8 pic rule no longer exists by the way Cheesy

8) Any probs and a mod will deal with it I'm sure.... Wink

I'd love to see that bird in formation sometime, with me in one of them of course. Grin

Shouldn't be too hard as it's a piston prop, accelerates and decelerates quickly.

We should give it a go sometime!

Unbelievable shots by the way. They just keep getting better and better. Heck I have one of your shots on my desktop.

Very very thank you Krigl. Superb plane. I downloaded it and tested it. Very pleasant to fly. Press key I and you had a beautiful white contrails (is it the correct word, i´m not shure).

Please e-mail me for a possible MP in this plane.

Regards from Spain.

Thanks very much for the great comments, very nice of you!!! Thanks for the contrail tip, Stratosaurus, they are nice indeed! In a hurry here... Wink

Wow, some people want to do MP in the Breguet...! Wonderful news, I'm excited already!

Provisionally shall we say Wednesday night at 8gmt...?

I'll post in the Multiplayer forum on Monday with more details, and people can give input (or even now in this thread) on what would suit them better...

Right now it's Christmas Day in the Czech Republic, so I have to go now. And tomorrow it's English Christmas, so I'll be back 'in' probably on Monday....

I wish all of you at SimV a very Happy Christmas, or whatever else people are celebrating, or at very least a nice couple of days off!!!

It's been a pleasure being a member of this forum for the last six months and I'd like to thank all of you for being good 'virtual ~~playmates~~ er, companions... Cheesy

Regards
