My first C47 flight with a lady co-pilot

Featured Replies

As this is a test flight for the newly manufactured C47 V2 for FSX by Manfred Jahn, I hired a lady co-pilot to help me with the radio comms, while I focus on learning how to fly this beauty of the sky in FSE.....

Turns out that the fuel tanks has not been certified by the FSE.
When I landed at Calgary international, the FSE aircraft certification officer approached me and informed me that I have to depart immediately to my departure airport and hire a C47 fuel tank specialist to revamp the fuel tanks to FSE standard. Failing so would means the plane is grounded and remain grounded until the fuel tanks are revamped.

Good thing is that I need not fly it back, FSE will help transport it back on my behalf....and the fuel consumed previously will be reimbursed to me.

Here's the short video of the test flight.

In fact, there were 2 beauties in the video, one is the C47 and the other is my lady co-pilot. Unfortunately, due to utube copyright issue I could not edit her into the video. Therefore you can only hear her voice in the radio comms... :P
