I hope all of you are enjoying Piglet's latest masterpiece as much as I am. Like all of Piglet's Peculiar Planes, this one is a charm, great frame rates, flies like a charm, good ground handling, ability to do aerobatics and get you there in minimum time. It was a little tricky landing at first, one has to bleed airspeed like a jet and if you do have to throttle, you'd best fly around. Acceleration is not instant it lurches and often throws the nose up. But when done proper, it's as easy as a kitten to land.

When I first saw this gem, I said "Blue Angels"! And since I have been in a paint muse today, I did a Blue Angels faux paint for it. Busy hands are happy hands.

You can find it in the SOH Warbird's Library/What's new: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links_search.php?action=find&catid=-8

Cazzie, you got me thinking ...

You know what I think would look good on this bird ... primary trainer skins.

I'm thinking

That kind of thing. Think about it ... canard + wing configuration for good stall characteristics, side-by-side seating for ease of instruction, and good visibility. Sounds like trainer material to me ... :)
