Some of Taigh Ramey's insights into the production of the series can be read here, in four separate articles:...
Some more photos by Taigh Ramey from the production, showing the incredible attention to detail that went into the sets and equipment.

For the production, no real B-17s were used, but two full-size replica B-17Fs were built by BGI Supplies Ltd. using a steel frame structure and aluminum skins - incredibly accurate externally (except...
Thank you for the compliments, Manschy and John. The screenshots were taken on just an initial look at a small area of the recently-released freeware Port Neville addon. I really love the detail...

Thank you Noddy and Paul. Zsolt, you're going to make me buy the MiG sooner or later - fantastic repaints!
I've been enjoying a week off work and took the Beech V-tail on a nice cross-country this...

If you bought a livery pack through Marketplace, the files will be found installed in the MSFS Official/OneStore folder, not the Community folder.
And something a bit slower, with Ant's Tiger Moth - one of the greatest treasures in my virtual hangar.

I'm so glad we're able to fly the Milviz F-86 in MSFS, thanks to the noted freeware conversion. It seems every pilot that has flown the real thing just adores the F-86. Screenshots taken near Chino,...
The regular Bing Maps aerial imagery is updated regularly (especially in the US). Any time MS gains access to new aerial imagery they inject it into the sim. It's the photogrammetry cities which are...
Thank you, Rob, for this wonderful gift!
I love the markings Western Airlines used on their DC-3s. Here are some screenshots taken in Florida, where a friend/boss of mine now owns and operates a DC-3 painted in Western Airlines colors.

The CAF's Liberator, as pictured above, is an extremely early version. It was the 18th B-24A and only the 25th Liberator built in all (of over 18,000) - it is actually one of the oldest American...
It's very well done, and I've been really enjoying flying it. My only criticism so-far is that on both of the PT-13 paint schemes the insignias on the wings are on the opposite sides to where they...
Hey Zsolt, I just purchased/installed the Miltech "Supercarrier Pro" product, and those labels suddenly appeared too. I found that if you click go into the settings (gear symbol) from within the...

I finally took the Tomcat to sea, and successfully capturing a wire on that carrier deck is way harder than the Youtubers make it look! Though the challenge sure makes it addicting. The Heatblur/IFE...
