I love the pilot animation too:

That's a great looking Aardvark!

I've been using justflight's F-111 which is also very nice, especially combined with the freeware Pease AFB scenery installed..




I've also been exploring more vertical flight




Chinook in the antarctic..




And more 70's USAF with the Razbam A7D..

At Simouthouse you can find some very impressive pictures showing the wing flex of the GKS F-111E

Steve, I will have to get me this scenery. I must have overlooked it yesterday, or I would have departed from Pease AFB instead of Plattsburgh.
I love the other pictures as well.

Just a quick update on what else I've been flying :)





I've loaded the Vietnam war project freeware scenery into FSX and been exploring some of that too...









Finally a quick test hop in the Area51 UH1Y...

Since I'm headed to Nellis next week I thought I'd take the aerosoft F-16 for a spin around the area and routeing to the East of Area51 I picked up a radar contact headed towards the Forbidden area. I made a fast climb to intercept and found a 737 way off course. I think they must have been shocked to see me and realise where they were!

Putting my new Sukhoi SAC J-11B Flanker through it's paces over Nellis AFB.

   

   

Some more testflying out of Nellis, this time using the J11B SEAD version

   

   

   

Love the way the aircraft drops shadows on itself flying under a nice warm and sunny sky

   

   

   

End of a nice test session, but the beginning of more to come...

That's a nice flight Stefaan - to be completely realistic, you could fly it out of Tonopah.....

A privately owned Flanker

BTW, nice pictures Stefaan

Wow, that would be exciting to have Christian... but I wouldn't wanna pay the fuel bill :-)

Below a picture of a Su27P jet taken on one of the last airshows at Ostend EBOS near where I live (the shows were canceled a few years later after an accident happened), about halfway the nineties.
I was standing just behind the fence from where this picture was taken in the old not-yet-digital way.
Pilot at the event was Anatoliy Kvochur, giving us some wonderfull passes very low over the runway including an impressive Cobra that made the hairs at the back of your neck stand upright :-)
Ever since, that aircraft has grasped my attention.

   

When standing so close, the sound of starting the engines without ear protection is nearly killing you... an incredible high pitch&whine tone

Here's a video of the same jet/pilot on another event:
