| Dear Connie Dear Connie (Simtube) Though its not a real aviation video, this is quite touching, even for being flight simulator. Very well done indeed. Mod's, if this is in the wrong spot, please move to the right area. I couldnt think of where it could go, so I just posted it here.

 | Very nicely done. What amazes me is he said the P-47 pilot crashed but the 109 crashed also not being able to pull out of the dive. I wonder what the altitude was? |

| Dear Connie Beaupower 32, Thanks for posting this simulation. I was taken aback to see a Beaver crop sprayer operated by Robby Aerial Services in the opening sequences. Robby's operated several ag aircraft including a couple of Beavers. However, I must take issue with the authenticity of the depiction of the Beaver - they were never that clean! Usually you could smell the aircraft long before you saw it! Attached is a photo of a Robby Beaver, unfortunately not VH-IDS as depicted in the simulation, but a sister ac whose registration I did not record at the time. The photo was taken at Parafield Airport, South Australia in Dec 1969. Hopes this adds in some small way to the simulation. Wingman |

Agreed, and as for the simulation. I have no control on how the plane looks in the video. I merly posted it as a video that I like and believe that it was very well done and thought out.
