Cool vid RG. But, how come it's always dark when I fly legs...

Thanks, RG! Good stuff!

That's very nice.

I think I recognise all the different military aircraft, but what's the AA jet?

Good question

My first thought was it is the Convair 880 but I can't find any repaints in that style of AA.

The other thought is it is the Douglas DC8 an early model but I can't find any repaints of the DC 8 in AA for that time period either. Actually no repaints for the DC8 for AA at all.

I have been looking at HJG they have the early jets with the most accurate repaints.

So its only a guess but I think its a Convair 880 with a more modern paint.

Boeing 720B I believe.

Looks right on the money to me.

For the same reason it's always a head-wind John. If you find out what you did to annoy the FS gods, let us know so we don't incur the same wrath

OK then, so the line up is:

F7F Tigercat
F4U Corsair
P-38 Lightning
Spitfire
DC7
Boeing 720B
RB-50 Superfortress
P-51 Mustang

Apart from perhaps a military jet and a heli, everything one could need for a RTW race...
