I was poking around the Marketplace and found an "enhanced" version of the TBM that enables different information to be displayed on each PFD. The description says it can be hard on some systems, but from the frames I'm seeing, it's no problem here.
Just left TNCM on an air taxi run with a load of tourists, leveled off at 17,000 to maintain VFR, nice comfy cruise set with 85% NG to save fuel.
Fantastic day to be flying!
Coming into Guadeloupe, about to catch the ILS beam for Le Raizet airport - TFFR
Now that we're here, kindly get your stuff and get off my plane!

I've finally got this one finished and uploaded today - it ended up being way more work than I thought it was going to be when I started. https://flightsim.to/file/52289/p-51...4-73877-g-cmdk

Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.
That is a great article! I had been planning on doing the repaint since this past fall, and when I read the recent issue of Aeroplane, it got me energized to finally get it made.
Back in the early 2000s, the History Channel had a brilliant series called "Battle Stations", which I recorded the episode on the P-51 and would replay it often (to get my Mustang fix, back before sites like Youtube sprang up). In that episode, there are great segments of interviews with original WWII Mustang pilots, one of them being Don Blakeslee. You can get sort of a sense of the character he had by his great responses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVCe2dZMc0w
John,have you ever gotten to sit and talk with Bud Anderson? hes kinda shy,but he will talk once comfortable.i lost his number after i moved to utah (lost all my contacts,sighs).. but Buds a really nice guy,shoot him your interest and knowledge of P-51s and i know he will speak to you,hes 101? this year i think. but i called him on his 100th and he was still very sharp.
Oh. that looks like the uh, uh???
aircraft by Rob uh, uh, whose development partner got sick a couple of years ago.
I'm drawing a blank .... work brain, work! somebody help me out.
She was a sexy aircraft that I had in FSX and then in P3D

Flameout, that actually happens to be a very stylish Beech Baron, which is the stock MSFS model that has been overhauled by Black Square, available here: https://www.justflight.com/product/s...l-analog-baron
Seeing the gorgeous repaints by Tim and Ryan, I know I'm going to eventually have to purchase both it and the remade Bonanza as well. (Thank you Tim, for the compliment on the P-51 repaint!)
Hey Dave - I've never talked to Bud Anderson, though I've read his book (which is excellent) and I got to see him fly Jim Hagedorn's P-51D "Old Crow" back in the early 2000s (then still owned by Jack Roush). I have been fortunate that, through my work for Warbirdsim over a decade ago, I had the honor of being contacted by a few WWII Mustang vets as well as some family members of others that flew Mustangs during the war.
