Sounds like O'Leary's idea of a cargo company!

Interesting post Colin, love the era posters too. Interestingly with British models there's always a 4 engine and a 2 engine "ensemble" of many, Manchester and Lancaster, Dove and Heron to mention some, and of course the DH86 and the Dragon Rapide.

Excellent shots of the P51, although I am more into bigger, slower aircraft. You seem to have a keen interest in the Mustang.

Great shots of the DC-4 Jan, and love the dogs as well. Colin's dog reminded me of my German shepherd, she was the most intelligent dog I ever had, and sorely missed by all of us.

Beautiful photo essay Adam. The DC-6 is quite a plane.

Unusual colours for a spit. Excellent job of a repaint.

Its far less polluting than the jets for sure, and more eye candy.

Joyeux Noël, cher Gérard!

Awesome Dornier and great set of shots Adam. Best wishes.

What a lovely set of shot of the 172 David. Raining cats and dogs.

Lovely one Adam, just don't copy my water take-off technique.

I learned to love the DC-4 from Jan. I have always been a two-engine prop enthusiast, until -encouraged by many members of this forum, to download and try Jens Kristensen's DC-4 / C-54 model. It is quite amazing. I downloaded the latest NorthEastern repaint by the talented Gary Harper and took the ship for a spin. This little baby is a pleasure to fly, and to add more fun, I have an excellent custom panel installed -designed by my good friend Rick. Its a shame that Flight Replicas isn't going to offer any Christmas sale on their Douglas DC-4 model :mad: Quite a princely price tag.

Nice shots Jan. Love the warm reddish tints of the sky, too. She is yellow, just don't get inspired by the Beatles track and make a submarine of it (in the best tradition of von Peerhoven's flying academy- landplanes into seas and seaplanes into land). Best wishes. Khalid

Great one Rick, I have heard P51s have a nickname "Cadillac of the sky" well the heroes of the old did not have FSX so they had to spend $$$$$$$ to feed them or contend themselves with having a glance at airshows. Short of winning some multi-million dollar lottery you will have to contend yourself with the ones in your FSX hangar.

Nice picture Gérard. Best wishes.

nice pics, beautiful livery too.

lovely later series DC-8 David. Great photo essay of your trip.

Absolutely brilliant, Larry. Thanks for sharing.

great capture of the cosmic body. Well done Colin.

Great shots Rick, the Havoc is a fine looking plane. Best wishes. Khalid

Congratulations David on the completion of your challenging adventure. :cool: :pilot: :cool: :pilot: :cool: :pilot: And you have chose a fine ship (Stratocruiser) for your parting shot! Then the mai tai (rum punch) ! :cool: :pilot: :cool: :pilot: Thank you for sharing, it was very interesting to follow up. Keep up the good work and Godspeed. NB: Why don't we the merry lot on this forum arrange for a collective flying activity of some sort? I was part of the Aerosoft (Around the world in 80 days) challenge and it was a tremendous joy. Just an idea. Best wishes. Khalid

Fantastic pictures Aharon. :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
