Brilliant screenshots John!

Bomber_12th

Thank you Roger, Paul, and Bill!

There's actuallytwo different Bleriot's in the screenshots. One is powered by an Anzani, where-as the other is one of those that were powered by a Le Rhone rotary engine (various examples of both of these fly today).

There are three different Bleriot variants for FSX (the two above included), available here, as you will notice through the tabs: http://bleriot-11-en.blogspot.com/

When installing all of them, you have to re-name the main folder names for the individual aircraft, as well as re-title the individual title lines in the different aircraft.cfg files, otherwise those are written all the same. I also didn't quite like the textures for the pilots, so I made some changes.

Is that a Bleriot with the rotary engine in the later shots? Seen a replice flying twice at Hahnweide, looked like awesome fun!

I believe that would be one of the examples owned and flown by Mikael Carlson, which is an example that was manufactured by Thulin, in Sweden, under license from Bleriot. If it wasn't for Mikael Carlson's Bleriot performances, I wouldn't have nearly the amount of interest in the aircraft as I do.

This is my idea of good weekend flying. This is one of the new-build reproductions, built all to original plans, with a modern Rotec engine on the front (you can actually order one of these Bleriots to be built for you, to your own specifications). One of the options for these reproductions, is whether to have the original wing-warping or to have ailerons fitted - with this example, owned by Eric Preston, it was decided to keep the original wing warping. According to Eric, just about all that the wing warping is good for, is just to balance the aircraft enough through turns, which are guided/done primarily with the rudder, otherwise the wing warping really doesn't do much.

That is a lovely paint job on the Jenny. Where did you get that?

Bomber_12th
April 25th, 2012, 16:23
It's one of the three default FS9 schemes (though the model is one of the FSX-converted types). I did black-out the alpha channel for the decal texture file, so that the markings on the side of the rear fuselage weren't present - I like the over-all look of it a lot better, and it changed it from being a scheme I didn't like and didn't use, to being the one I use the most.

Here's a very nice, real-life, red-painted Jenny (with many other videos of this aircraft found under the uploader's account):

I found yet another nice Jenny out there made for FSX:

64217

It's nice but the wings are a little transparent


64218

Can you guess who made this one? here is a hint:

64219

Bomber_12th
April 27th, 2012, 17:50
That is a great model of the Jenny, too! I know the designer kept the wings semi-transparent so as to show-off/display the internal wing structure that he went through the pain to produce. Thank you for posting the screenshots, too! I think Dirk made a very nice Model T for FSX that came with one of his Jenny's, that I had installed at one time - I'll need to track that down again.

I'd actually like to see this thread continue to be expanded, with screenshots from many others! None of that 1, 2, or 3 picture business, but 10+ images, and perhaps even a story behind the images or the flight - and keep it all to the 1900's, 1910's, 1920's, and 1930's, military and civilian aviation.

You are an artist, John. You should definitely try oil painting. You have a great eye and feeling for putting a subject in the best dramatic position possible. Use your fantastic screenshots as an example. You'll have to learn the technique but i have a good feeling you'll get away with that easily. You'll LOVE the smell of oilpaint !

Don't spend your great talent on digital stuff only, but please DO continue with that too ! :cool:


Cheers,
Jan

Okay, John's suggestion that we show off our vintage aircraft is a great idea. No stickie (we're tring to reduce the stickie pile) but members can keep this one floating on page one if there's sufficient input.

OK John,
I'm Keeping up with the traditions....


64294

At the end of Sept , in 1911, Anthony Fokker left a field near Haarlem in his Spin (Spider) and flew over the city. After a 360 around the Great- or St.Bavochurch he landed save in another field. That performance made his name as an aircraftbuilder.
Haarlem is celebrating of course, with the Fokker Spin Centential. (It's in Dutch, but maybe Google can give some sort of translation ;D)
Some Dutch simmers planned to make the flight in FSX, but there was no aircraft! (The last Spin was made for FS98!)

aahhh the days when you had to fly the plane rather than just sit there and let the plane fly you! The 1910-1943 era is deffenitly my favorite, after 1943 they'd pretty much figured out what made a plane fly and how to keep it flying, great if your flying in the real world etc etc, but all the planes start getting "samey" and loose their character, at least in my eyes :engel016:

BTW, I don't know how hard/easy this question would be to answer amongst the folks here, but...

Thanks Rich! I try to mimic realism as much as I can with the videos. Climbing into the cockpit of the A2A P-40, zigzagging taildraggers and leaning out the sides... thanks to FTNOIR, and watching aircraft fly as a spectator. The vidoes may not be fancy with music, but I want them to be as if you were there with a camcorder. I even go as far as to repaint some of the aircraft to fit the scenes, even thou I not a repainter. Also, I tend to like to do some aerobatics, and I love the sounds of the Merlins and Pratt & Whitney engines! -TF

Surprised nobody's posted any pics of Ant's Tiger Moth...one of my favourite models - freeware or payware.

From a Kiwi perspective the Tiger Moth has a long history in NZ as a pilot trainer with civilian Aero Clubs during the 30s and 50s, the RNZAF (especially during WW2), a topdresser during the 50s and 60s (they use to fly off our farm) and more recently as a popluar vintage collectable. Tiger Moths were also built in NZ during the war. There is an active Tiger Moth Club in NZ. I was lucky enough to have a flight in one about 30 years ago at a Tiger Moth meet.

Surprised nobody's posted any pics of Ant's Tiger Moth...one of my favourite models - freeware or payware.

From a Kiwi perspective the Tiger Moth has a long history in NZ as a pilot trainer with civilian Aero Clubs during the 30s and 50s, the RNZAF (especially during WW2), a topdresser during the 50s and 60s (they use to fly off our farm) and more recently as a popluar vintage collectable. Tiger Moths were also built in NZ during the war. There is an active Tiger Moth Club in NZ. I was lucky enough to have a flight in one about 30 years ago at a Tiger Moth meet.

Here's some shots of Dave's DH89 (this one lives at my local airport - saw it just last weekend)...I always think of Milford Sound when I think of DH-89s (they use fly out of there in the 50s and 60s). Flight to Martins Bay...unfortunately nosed over on landing (sticky brakes) ;)
