This one is a hand full in the Arctic, but fun and challenging.

I'm still wondering how Fairey got away with such an ugly aircraft...


Nice shots 'though!

Yep, very nice shots CG. Was it Razbam that came out with that? I know I bought it when it was first released, flew it a few times and then uninstalled it. I just couldn't get past the exterior, lol.

From a modeling standpoint, it was very well done, for it's time it had an excellent VC, everything about it in that sense was quality. It was just so danged ugly I couldn't keep it, lol.

No, it was freeware from an english designer.

Ok, I checked my invoices and back in 2005 I purchased the Breguet Alize from Razbam, the ugly French version of the ugly British version. So I was wrong in assuming what CG had was what I remembered buying, but I was still correct in it's ugliness, lol.

Great shots, it's very nice to see this ugly bird which I think is quite special! The freeware model is pretty darned good, and the fact that Australia used to fly the type of HMAS Melbourne is a nice trip down memory lane!
