Having a blast with FSX:SE

Thanks to Alphasim's SAAB Viggen!

 

Indulged in some highly illegal VFR simming in NW England (I live near Preston). Anyhow took off from Manchester, went supersonic as I left the throttle at the firewall & got an overspeed warning at about 5000 feet before reaching BAe Warton. Slowed to subsonic, lost altitude then sent her past Mach 1 again above Warton's runway. :Shame On You:  Broke a few windows in Blackpool too before heading out into the Irish Sea. :spiteful:

 

Ended up landing at Ronaldsway with 20% fuel remaining. The Volvo Flygmotor doesn't have a drink problem; it loves Jet A1 :) 

 

It's good to just take your brain out and treat FSX like an arcade game sometimes  :Tounge:  :Devil:

 

Seriously that Alphasim Viggen has a phenomenal roll rate - surely too much?
