Thanks. I and LaGaffe are “Super” excited about what might be next. Wink Wink Nudge Nudge Say No More.

Sorry to mislead you, I meant Aeroplane Heaven NOT Aerosoft. Go to ORBX and you will see all they are hosting for free downloads

couple more - the airstrip is by 'vbcorp' and is the Borrego municipal airport in So Cal. This is someone that lagaffe knows - and he has done some VERY NICE airports for MSFS that are free - available at flightsim.to San Diego Borrego Valley (L08) for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS

the GAS Stearman - coming soon - is going to be a proper Boeing Model75 Still a WiP Thanks to Paul et al at GAS and to lagaffe for the work being done here - and for letting us post a few screenshots

Interesting to see how popular FSX still is. I don't have hardware suitable for MSFS or XP12. Can't afford to upgrade at the moment so still use XP11 occasionally. I use AF4 a lot and it looks and performs superbly for me...even developed some aircraft for it but so much work involved. It's biggest weakness for me is the limited choice of aircraft. In FSX I can fly pretty much any plane I want, anywhere I want... so been using FSX quite a bit myself lately... I'd forgot how great it all is with the add-ons I have. A lot of ORBX stuff helps with making the landscape more believable and so many great planes. Matt

Definitely on my list for October. It looks fantastic. I've always loved the "civvie P-51" vibe of the Navion.

it's a long time ago now (1950's) but my fathers Proctor, during run up he would set the throttle to full, with the Prop set to coarse, watch the Boost gauge, then push the prop lever to Fine watch the RPM go from about 1700 at coarse to 2400 at fine. If one then closed the throttle the RPM would decrease to idle ( noise with it) . In flight running flat out level flight 2400 RPM indicated, Boost - 1/2 psi, about 160/170 mph, if one pulled the prop lever fully back to coarse the RPM would drop back to about 1700 (too low for continuous running as oil pressure insufficient for bearings & possibly prop angle change) noise would drop, but airspeed & rpm should increase until a balance of HP, & drag in theory should equalise. My FS9 Proctor uses a Gypsy Major & fixed pitch set of sounds made...

FWIW - my father's Navion - Biggs AFB 1952

Excited to say the least ! WOW !!

Darn, I did it again I thought the video would be of the curved strip in Idaho. I said "No way!". Then I recognized NC. I have to brush up on my reading comprehension. Falcon 10s and 20s were/are my favorite little jet.

Thank you for your support DennyA. Nick

I dislike saying this, by my freeware version is nothing compared to my Navion B night and Day scenario- The freeware wasn't even my model and I made sure to contact the developers of that model from FS2006 and credit them as needed to use that and its included in my documentation with the download as per request. Yes, the freeware that is available on the internets is mine. It was my 1st aircraft project I started over two years ago. It has the flight dynamics very similar to the model B as I used them as my base and further enhanced them with direct input and testing from real Navion owner's/pilots over the years. Even the Camair 480 Twin I did isn't this detailed. I do have more freeware available on my website as I discontinued the freeware line on Flightsim.to, but they still keep it...

I have actually flown into NC06 years back, it's a tight fit for sure but when there, I saw Super King Air's coming in so I suspect an MU-2 would be okay there if flown by the numbers. Here is a video of a Dassault Falcon 10 Jet landing and departing there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbrInNwvlac

They seem to have gotten their sh . . . um, stuff together now (at least for me). All of my updates today downloaded and installed smoothly. I flew for a few hours this morning (I love Saturdays) without any problems at all.
