    Icon23 We need one of these for FSX



    Just thought I'd start a little discussion. Wish Milviz would take this on like they did the Stuka.

    Every account I ever read says it was a real SOB to handle but granted, one rugged SOB!

    When somebody would make it, I would feel obliged to fly it. So better not, as I already have far too many aircraft to fly in one virtual life.......

    Cheers,

    You got a ton of 'em in the respective flightsim.

    Unless you get a good shot into the oil cooler on the belly, you can waste half of your ammo on one. Even more when you're flying an early F- series Bf-109 with the small 15mm cannon.

    The Stuka did very poorly for us. Less than break even.

    I'm guessing this was sky fair at Paine field this past Saturday? I was there too. Great day! Much better than aviation day in May!

    I recall someone was modeling one of these in Blender and had a thread about it at FSDeveloper.

    Best, Paul

    The MV Stuka is still one of my favorites.

    And yes, this was taken at Skyfair last Saturday. We loved it, despite our hotel bill with the big bar tab.

    With or without P-38 engine and prop? : )

    From the sound of it, there may be as many as two more Il-2's flying soon/in the future, currently being restored by the same company that did FHC's Il-2 pictured (and the well knwon Mig-3's and Polikarpov fighters),

    I respect the risks you are taking and the efforts you make. Hopefully the F-4 will make up for you.
