peer01 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) After a bumpy flight in stormy and cold weather, "Hawkair Aviation" British built Bristol Freighter approaches Vancouver carrying a heavy load of mining tools. Mike Stone made this model almost 16 years ago and I'm still pleased with it. I'm so happy I have all his models in my hanger. He created lots of FS planes for us, all small basic files and easy to use in every PC. You can add panels and soundsets like I did and there are numerous repaints available. Many of his models are updated by several designers.

NMLW Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 An exciting flight in the Bristol freighter Jan. Great shots of it too. I have some in my collection, but have not flown them for a long time. Looks like you have a nice hanger of 170 paints. :cool: :cool: :cool: :) Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalizzi Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Lovely set of shots of a magnificent bird. I remember as a teen there was one derelict not far from the air club in Baghdad and I once decided to explore it, I went inside through the side door and I was surprised to fine the access to the cockpit was through a ladder that takes you to a trap door at he floor of the cockpit. You were quite elevated as a pilot when sitting there, like looking down from the first floor of a building. I include a screenshot of the repaint I have in my hangar: Asus P8Z77-V Premium Mobo w\32GB MSATA Caching SSD On-Board | i7-3770K CPU | 16GB DDR3 1600 | FSX Gold on 1TB boot SSD | P3Dv4 on 512MB SSD | 1TB+2TB WD HDDs | 2 Asus GTX660 2GB Ti Cu cards w\SLI | Win7 Pro 64 | REX Full Catalogue | ORBX FTX Full Catalogue | Saitek Flight Control Pro w\Dual Throttle Quadrants+Pedals | 24"+2x19" HP Monitors | 1000W PSU [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peer01 Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 Good looking Bristol Freighter you have Khalid! :cool::cool::cool: Thanks for your comment. I also have a "Middle East Airlines" one,:) Wasn't an easy stair to the cockpit, having all your bags with you and when the nose was filled with cargo or a car..
