The L-39 has a tiny footprint... What kind of midget taxiways does Auburn have?? If an L-39 can't fit on the taxiway then King Airs must be prohibited

They come with Team SDB Bunker Hill AFB, plus a B-58 Hustler.

I was just playing around with IS3 and the grass is part of a FTX/Orbx scenery library.

I picked this up (Virtavia model) in a flash sale at PCA.au while waiting unsuccessfully for the AH F3F to appear and am quite impressed given the age of the model..

Enroute Culdrose-Gibraltar..

The wind at FL310 got a bit iffy (63kts from 257) requiring the odd heading change but the Thud hung on well. I notice it porpoises in the cruise (a 4sec cycle) but this adds a reassuring realism.. nothing stays rock steady now does it! Fuel consumption is much better than expected. Reports I've read say pilots need to know where their tankers are but for this flight at least, it wasn't bad at all.

Just prior to parking up at Gib

Flight distance some 850nm as the crow flies. Cruise speed 300kias/M.79 at FL310 and closed down with 39% remaining. Any faster would have taken me above 98% N1 and risked the burner lighting. It's still on sale at PCA.au for $12 AUS and worth it IMHO

Thought this was a photo. I'm either getting old or that simulation thing is getting really good.

Nice to see some coverage of that ole' gal.

Make sure you check out DaveQ's, Frank's, and JensO's (and maybe some others, I can't recall) repaints. They really make it look every bit as hot as it should. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...European-Thuds for example ...

cheers,

Hi Airattack...should be a busy fire season,get lots of AT shots....Auburn is 3700' long and 75' wide...the L-39s landed no problems...i was just surprised..i had no idea they could land there as each time ive seen them they have been at much longer runways...learning thing for me...it was the DC 4 which had problems on the taxiway..

Thanks DL

I picked up Jens paints shortly after my purchase. The 'extra' paints were one of the deciding factors in flexing the old plastic!
