I was at the FBO in Midland, TX when two pilots walked in wearing flightsuits. One was a Marine the other Navy. They had flown in from Fallon and had two F-5s parked on the ramp. One was painted in these colors.Originally Posted by noddy

Great shot Noddy,
What a shame. My first solo was in a Robin HR-200 (G-BCCO) at Sywell on November 23rd, 1975..... Wait a minute... What a co-incidence, that was 48 years ago TODAY!!!!!!! - Kenneth (See MSFS recreation below!!)I read today a French court ordered the liquidation of Robin aircraft. General aviation loses another iconic manufacturer.

Some late fall flying in the Messerschmitt over Danville, Illinois (where the real aircraft was restored and has been based/flown). Getting very near the 25-hr inspection point now.

You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.

Looks like you are flying around the Fallon ranges if I am not mistaken. Great shot.
That's awesome! What do you remember about how it flew? I've heard great things about their flying qualities??
Recently joined ranks of MSFS fans. My machine is not that great, but even at the levels I can use, its excellent. It must be absolutely stunning on machines that can use all it has to offer... as some of your screenshots prove. I'm still at the stage of experimenting, learning and tweaking

Welcome Matt! I have a insider secret for you...you...will NEVER go beyond the stage of experimenting, learning and tweaking. Such is MSFS live.

is that dragonfly in MS2020? if so could someone point me to it? that plane and the bronco are going to get me back into flight sim..
It's great to see you here, Matt!
Dave, the Dragonfly is a superb freeware addon available here: https://flightsim.to/file/63018/cessna-a-37b-dragonfly
I was surprised to find both of SimWorks Studio's Vans RV's on sale for only $2 a piece on the MSFS Marketplace, so I had to snatch them up.
Welcome back, Dave. Here are the links:

Beautiful screenshots, JanKees! One of these days I'm going to have to finally purchase the Gina - it always looks brilliant in all of the screenshots I've seen.
I was just thinking this morning, my PC is four years old now, having purchased it in a "Black Friday" sale back in 2019 (Lenovo Legion - RTX 2800, i9-9900K, 32 GB Ram). It still runs MSFS butter-smooth with FPS locked at 35, at ultra settings and 70% 4K resolution. I'm hoping I can still get some life out of it yet with MSFS 2024.
Yeah I about fell off my chair! 90% off!! Of course I bought them at full price when they first came out....
