Wonderful set Pierre. Can't choose between the first three, but they are exceptional.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks guys, it is definitely fun to fly a plane like a chopper ahahah. Actually it takes a little getting used to the directional exhaust fans... Stable on the roll, but you have to be careful with the pitch depending on your speed and how fast you're redirecting the exhaust fans to the horizontal direction...

What you didn't tell us is how many times you tried to land without turning into a fireball... Grin

Sky!

I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.

Very nice set!

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
