I love the Biplane Rides touch at KORS...lol makes you wonder how many days of the year KORS has biplane touring weather :)

AWOS reports 6C and 32kt winds....better bundle up and strap in tight LOL

So would you go with a Stearman, Waco, TravelAir, or a Tiger Moth in those conditions lol:jump:

Can't wait to add Maam's N3N to that discussion. :D
I hope after Golden Age Sims releases their Dolphin that they consider giving Bill Lyons old Travelair the FSX touch. Loved that bird in FS9

Bill Lyons' Travelair for FS9 was based at KORS.

You're right. The last couple of weeks have definitely not been biplane weather. "Most" summers, though, we're pretty good for it. We anchor our sailboat often during the summer at the island just to the north of Orcas, Sucia. Pretty common to hear that round engine overhead doing loops and rolls. Nice free airshow.

cheers,

That was a beautiful vid there Tyler :)

Lol yeah there are biplane rides offered here around wine coutry but it has been too cold and cloudy :) When Orbx gets to wine country will have to do some biplane rides out of Schellville or Sonoma. With the release of this Orcas scenery maybe it will give Golden Age Sim some incentive to do the Magic One. :mixedsmi:
