Over the Alps, love the Mustang flying out of Annecy in the French Alps with the HD European Mesh...

Hope somebody comes up with alternative  and improved vc textures for the Mustang. 

Yep, the textures are just not quite as sharp as some of my other aircraft add-ons, but I do not mind, the aircraft flies well, and has speed control which I like in cruise climb, using pitch vs. thrust, I do not care for auto-throttles because they go against the way I was taught to fly in real life.  I was taught that you trim for speed, and use thrust for altitude, in order to get up to and ride "the sweet spot: as efficiently as you can.  

The Xplane11 Carenado Premier 1 is good for that too, and a fast flyer.  When I flew my little LSA Allegro in flight training, I was taught to fly by trim, not to be heavy handed on the yoke.  When you get an aircraft trimmed just right, it wants to fly fast, fly high, and fly right all by itself.

Our LSA's had no autopilots and being so light they would get thrown around, but we were taught to trust our senses, vs. the instruments, we were taught to take our eyes off of the instruments and just scan them from time to time.  Look outside, is what my CFI drilled into me, because he said simmers who learn to fly are too instrument focused and have to unlearn those habits, so they can literally fly using their "seat of the pants" and all other senses. Wow, how did I say all this because of the textures?
