The default Schweizer is an ideal plane for spectators, it can't make any noise and they've got it installed already.Gryshnak


How about this?

FS2004 Paper airplane 25 foot long gmax paper airplane with the Schweizr 2-32 files. Will do 400+ knots in a steep dive, but starts to become unstable around 275-280. No animations, no panel, very simple visual model, only 50 polys. Fun to fly especially in tower view. By Bill Wogan. 525K

Say if there is 20 of us in the spectators... even then you'll only have 1000 polys! I'm pretty sure that's less that a single Schweizer!

I was considering displaying the little BD-5J, but a 17ft wingspan at 300KIAS can be difficult to see from the runway.

So, if I can make it, I'll be flying the Storch instead and doing some v-e-r-y  s-l-o-w flying.

I'm surprised it wasn't available here at SimV...

Saturday after Easter could be a problem as I am at work untill 2pm but so long as it's later than that I'd love to join in. If I can come I'll be flying either the Hawker Sea Fury (same one I flew last time, find it here at SimV in the FS2K2 vitage section) or the FS9 version of Paul Rebuffat's superb Spitfire XII that you can get from Flight sim. com http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kdl/main/73/sptmxii.zip?HVHza04l
I may fly both if you have a couple of slots available. Smiley

Oh, it will be definitely later than that! More like 5pm. That seemed like the ideal time, last time.

Hmm, I'm probably out that evening.  Ah well, never mind.

YES! spotter guy is great, and no FPS problems.  I was with him at KSEA and getting 50-60 fps

That's fine. We can just put you later on in the programme.

The problem is, we have many different people stretching over different time zones. I think the extremes go from Jakemaster - Theis/Ecko (Texas - Denmark). 5pm (GMT) seemed about the ideal time, as in the US, they were just getting up, and we still had enough time in Denmark to see the show through.
