    Thumbs up Hellcat & Zero

    More flying of the airworthy in FS9 CFS2 aircraft, an F6F flown by Alex Vraciu, legendary USN Ace ...

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Vraciu

    as well as an A6M2 model 21 Zero, Kounoike Flying Group, Kounoike, Japan, 1944

    Great weathered repaints that still look good even today in 2009.

    Had some fun throwing these 2 warbirds around the virtual skies today.

    Enjoy! Mike

    Shot number 5 is the best one I think! Wing leveler needs some calibration.
