Thank you both. Bear encounters that result in injury or death or rare. Usually, it is the human encroaching on the bear's territory. Never block a bear, always give them a way out. And, never, never, never both yourself between a mother bear and her cub(s).

Sorry, can't fix it...maybe Tom could? Well, I'll admit to the Typhoon, Harrier and 737-600...which I just couldn't say no to... And the C160 looks to be in the same class, impressive video!

Question for Cees: do you do MSFS? Have you succombed to the Dark Side? :biggrin-new: Priller

Beautiful! :applause: Cees

Time to explore Czechoslovakia. The next skin is out. Bf-108 Taifun / K-70 “Czech Air Force” D-55.

It is again very quiet here. I'll take advantage of the lull to request some help. This contraption is supposed to be roadable, flyable, and floatable. And designed in 1928. Does anyone know who is the designer, and what is the designation? (Source: rarehistoricalphotos.com)

Great job Jan, I must have been one of the first to download this beauty. I saw it appear this morning early. Love the Tweet.

Great scenery! I fly FSX and it is perfect, Thank you. Lee

Thanks ian. Exactly what I was looking for!:wavey:

I put a little time into correcting the colors of the defector An-2 and am ready to fly it around Cuba. For some reason, MSFS is in one of those moods tonight where it doesn't like the plane/airport combination I want, and crashes whenever I try to start a flight with it. But it is okay with me flying the plane around an airport that I don't want. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to fly it out of MUSS. August

Since you have the Milviz downloaded uninstall them with the uninstallers NOT just delete them from FSX. Then go fly something else and see what happens without any Milviz/Blackbird aircraft in your sim. I hope that this solves the issue for you. Then if it DOES work again properly, reinstall the Milviz aircraft one at a time and check it each time. It may be just one of them that is the culprit and you just have to live without that one. That advice from a non-expert.

Cessna C-37 Airmaster. The Cessna Airmaster is the plane that rescued the Cessna Aircraft Company from oblivion in the 1930’s. Clyde Cessna was a self-taught and well known early barnstormer, racer, and designer of aircraft, and he had gone into business during the 20’s building aircraft professionally. Some early examples of his work include the Cessna AW. Clyde Cessna was also involved in the Travel Air company, which is where a number of early aviation pioneers got their start (including Walter Beech and Lloyd Stearman). A special thanks to: Milton Shupe for permission to use his engine start effect and allow me to modify it for the Airmaster,By David Wooster This was created for FS9 and Golden Wings but it probably will work in FSX though as a port-over I am not sure about Prepar3D...

Thanks, Ryan. I appreciate your feedback. Yes, I also am beginning to think 1300W is overkill. The techs stress test all systems at the shop for a week or so, before releasing them and have their opinions re what has worked/not worked in the past. Maybe they were just being cautious and quoted the 1300W supply - reason being that apparently system components perform at their peak when power supply adequately meets all their peak operating needs, as well as, of course temps in the case are on the lower end of the scale at same time. I picked a larger case and more fans for improved air flow/cooling, but certainly do not want a space heater if 1000W will be enough. Apparently some power supplies will not ramp up their performance unless called upon by the components to deliver more...

Thanks but the first story is fictional. The night witch’s were not fighter pilots but made bombing runs often near suicidal type missions but often they made it as they were good at surprise attacks after dark. Pilots were in high demand and only a few women became fighter pilots. Most other women worked as Night Witches or lesser roles such as transport or delivery of aircraft from one location to the next.
