Such fine weather here, I took a 30-mile bike ride this afternoon and came home and flew Piglet's Mooney Mite to Roanoke from Danville using Active Sky. As you can see, it was a gorgeous day.

Piglet, this is my favorite aircraft of yours and the best for me since your classic T-28 series.

Ya sho gots me DC?? :isadizzy:

Textures are 565 160-bit, shouldn't present a problem, one step up from Piglet's default DXT5, I like the better sharpness. Would use 32-bit 888-8, but that takes up a lot of room and slows down the sim.

Lemme check that repaint I sent up, might have made a boo-boo and sent an early copy. There should be two here, one with an all-blue fuselage and one with an all underwing yellow.

Hi Cazzie

Great stuff. I enjoyed your pics - remembers me to the lonesome cowboy flying into the sunset.
Seems that the Mite could have been a fevourite equipment for lots of different WWII fighter squads:costumes:

That's from Mr. BB (Banana Bob) and available here and at AVSIM. In combination with Piglet's planes Bob sometimes makes simmer's paradise:jump:

Thanks Mike, just stashed it in the Mite folder. :applause:

BB hasn't done a prop for it yet, but I find that his Jungmann propwash for Oliver Fischer's Bu-131 works like a charm on the Mite and use it.

Cool! Noticed BB's prop is a little different than the default in the main texture, the end painted a brown color. So I still will use his Bu-131 prop for the all-wood prop.
