Gotta be an Emily... I think it's been beat to death by American guns... those are American boys in the foreground...

That plane was converted to CFS2 by Buddha13, then I did an update to it a short while back. New panel set, new skins. 4 individual uploads of the Emily in different colors. Also uploaded a sound pack for the Mavis that works great with the Emily.

The Emily was by far the better plane, but I've always liked the Mavis better ans use it whenever possible. With its long shark-like body and parasol wing it looks more evil and is more evocative of the period.
