Hi all,

Just saw the newest SciFi plane posted at Simv library, and saw it had a VC, so I gave it a try. The plane is a beauty, and the VC is quite nice too, I have to say. Couldn't resist sharing some shots

Bonus shot to show the VC:

Plane is freeware, still on SimV main page.
Scenery is freeware, Norway Scenery X.
ENB Bloom + FSX Native Bloom activated Cool

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

Great shots Stephane.....I was wonderin' about that plane. Looks like it's worth the time to DL

"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"

I haven't tried to land on the water in fact Tongue

Landing at Vaernes airport was already challenging enough Wink

This is Norway once again, enriched by some freeware sceneries like Norway Scenery X and a mesh.

The plane flies like a normal jet, a bit more powerfull though. The physics in flight are quite pleasant, and the view offered by the VC at dawn or dusk is enjoyable as well.
Thanks for the comments

I think I will add a virtual arrestor hook to it, so that I can land on carriers.

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?

I wonder how long before we see something like this in our skies? It looks so plausible.... time to play Cool

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

Great shots Stephane, very cool bird.

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

I wondered why you hadn't posted some screens for those planes yet Wink

Also, I wasn't aware about this SX-1, it's a fun plane as well, and the VC modellisation is one of the most original I've seen so far, so thanks for the info !

Your right it does look great although this bird tries to kill me while taxing it falls over, Huh

on final it either stalls or make one mistake and you are dead. And i do mead DEAAAD Grin

. Oh yeah and i love the vapor effects. But even if you are doing 700 in ground speed pull back to 9 g's enjoy the vapour for a few seconds and then sacrifice some small furry animals to get you out of that stall. that's why i love it!!! Grin

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

Hi Daube
Tried to find that jet with no luck. What is the name of it? Does the designer have a URL? Tell me more...
Very nice images by the way:)
