I do like a bit of VFR flying after all those big jets I spend so much time on. After all the voting for the best looking prop plane in the freeware section I decided to get the much reccomended RealAir Spitfire. I'm not disapointed! I've been looking for a decent Spit' for ages and this proves the old saying 'you get what you pay for'!!

Ready for a nice little flight in the Spitfire's natural home, Kent, SE England. Starting up with a puff of smoke at Headcorn,
...

Gear up, feel the power!
...

Couple of manouvers over the airfield first, love that detail,
...

Could be on patrol in 1940. Heading for Lydd airport near the coast,
...

Over TOO soon, that marshaler is brave to be so close to such a prop!
...

Comes with several liveries and a choice of clipped or oval wings. Overall, GREAT value for money. As you can see, the model is good, the VC is great and the sounds are terrific!

BUT this package has an extra treat instore as well, see part two here> http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=paywareshots;action=displa...

Good pictures and nice little review, I would have to disagree with the sounds though. I think they sound good at low RPM but in the higher revs it doesn't sound like any griffon I heard.

Lovely pics all the same

Happiness is a Spit! That marshall is a bit thick though as he is standing in a massive blind spot and the pilot probably will feed him to the prop Grin

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