No, not the fast gray one. This is THE 'Raptor" ! Mr. Napacon's Cessna 150 from back in the day. See his post "Chicken Hawk" http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?99425-Chicken-hawk

:wavey:@ Falcon409 or Napacon - I just looked for Skytop here on SOH. It's not in the library. Found where Michael had made it, but the drop box has been taken down. Michael hasn't been on here for over a year. Do either one of you have the Skytop scenery still zipped ? Took the 'Raptor' there a bit ago and it is lacking as default.
(Ed, I just d/l your Downsville . . . . needed a place to land.)

I soloed in one of these and still prefer to fly them when on my own. They are more brisky than the 172s usually available for hire. Unfortunately all three of them at the club are not flying due to lack of funds to pay for their insurance...

Great repaint! I saw the initial post of the real one and loved it! For which model is it for? I only have the Carenado one (152) and agree that the FDE is not that good.

This Paint is available here Cessna 152 N5569G 'Raptor'.zip Reflecting the GREAT JOB by jimbiiii...I thank Him for this Wonderful gift

[manfredc3]

This topic got me interested to get back to some low leven VFR flying.

I found the Downsville scenery, but regretfully the Skytop one is nowhere to be found :(

[napacon]

Hi Manfredc3,I have it..You may inquire with FALCON409 or jimbiii here. that for SKYTOP ROSCOE...Another Scenery is WHITE BIRCH 4n8 fALCON 408 made both WHITE BIRCH and DOWNSVILLE NY78...Falcon409 also made the HIGH POINT MONUMENT of which I posted...Good Luck Enjoy...Vin

[manfredc3]

Thanks Vin,

I did find the Downsville, will have to search for the White Birch and High Point Monument sceneries.

Hello Falcon409,

Would you be wiling to share the link to the Skytop Roscoe scenery with me as well? It would be highly appreciated.

Glad For You Manfred..Falcon Just Great!.That was my home strip..In reality its on a mountain Top..NY03 sits at Elevation: 2094 ft.Runway 1540 x 110 ft.The turf runway is 18 -36//with all T O and landings restricted to Rny 18....Using a pattern for .landing , never full flaps for quick go around..Deer live here...While ths scenery is excellent..its in error..There are no trees on the end of Rny 18...A chain Saw is needed here..Rather its like a table top or a carrier and lift off puts you at altitude and clear of any obstructions...Twins And Heavy planes have been here.Note pics in other posts...Its a wonderful area..Rural,resorts....Enjoy and HAPPY LANDINGS!!.....................................

[manfredc3]

My pleasure! Here ya go!
Thank you very much. Really appreciate that. DL in progress.

I found the White Birch scenery. but the High Point Monument scenery could not be found. Falcon409, do you still have that one available somewhere



Glad For You Manfred..Falcon Just Great!.
Yes, napacon, I am a happy camper thanks to Falcon409.

I am looking forward to some nice low and slow experience this weekend. Also looking at getting the Special offer from GAS for this to play around with in this scenery. (oh and of course the newly released repaint by Falcon409 for the FrenchVFR C-150L.

And even if the scenery is not a 100% accurate, any improvement from FSX default is very welcome, and highly appreciated,

Boy oh boy, I am in for an awesome Easter weekend.

Falcon409,

You made my weekend.

Thank you very much sir.

[manfredc3]

Been flying out of and in to Falcon409's VERY nice renditions of above mentioned locations, and having a whole lotta fun.

Do have an elevation issue when taxiing to the mantenance hangar in Downsville, but will send a PM to Falcon409 on that, as I don't want to hijack this thread.

I flew this plane and was really fun to fly!

I flew N5980G, also a '69, back in the late 70s. I just looked it up and it is still flying! It's up in Alaska right now. That's a long ways from sunny south Florida where I flew her! Very cool! (pun was actually not intended!!) That GULF set the old gears thinking!

Always nice to find out about planes we used to fly years ago are still well and flying today! I responded (this forum) to this particular thread since it's about Raptor (Cessna 150 N5569G) based at Skytop Airport (NY03), used as a trainer which I flew as a student pilot back in 1974. So, the pics I posted show the 150 during a run-up before takeoff at Skytop, in its original paint scheme. Next to me (right seat), one can barely see my instructor and dearest friend of a lifetime, Joe Pucciarello. Wish I had more pictures of the 150 but unfortunately I do not.

Today by reading some of the threads in this forum, found out that the 150 was afterwards purchased by Vinni...what a pleasant surprise! I was 19 years old and worked with Vinni Nappi when he introduced me to Joe...

Vinni and I flew together in Joe's 1968 CESSNA 182M N706515 for our first introduction flight, out of Sulivan County Airp. KMSV, Monticello New York. This was a turning point in my life and a most beautiful memory, I know the 150 could not have been in better hands.....the RAPTOR.

I immediately felt in love with the idea of becoming a pilot and the rest is history.....immensely grateful to both of them!

Ed,

Do you by chance still have Skytop Roscoe NY link (as shown in post #6 here) ? Can't find here in the library, and your link is no longer active.

I found White Birch, Downsville. Trying to set up some airfields to try out in this area, as I currently have none.

Thank-you, Milan ..
