Lol, My comment is coloured by experience of working at RAF St Athan in the early eighties, they used to air test Harriers after maintenance which included a period Hover taxying close to the Hangar I worked in...One pegasus in close proximity was painful, 2 would would probably be injurious P.S. In the 70s the RAF was considering a four engined vertical take off and landing transport (4 'thrust vectoring turbofans) it never got made but aspects of its design fed into the HS 146 , (Bae 146) Google: Hawker siddeley HS-681 Edited April 16, 20242 yr by Lonesome Cowboy Burt

What an experience! I managed to get a night visit to RAF Wittering in the late eighties with a few other young lads to watch them being serviced. They gave me a minute or tow in the seat, and I will never forget it, as the Harrier was my favourite military aircraft at the time - great days! I hope your hearing is still intact!

April 16, 20242 yr First time I saw DO-31 was fictional version of it in the Amazon ‘Man in the High Castle’ adaptation
April 17, 20242 yr I am a bit disappointed with the hand crafted version of EDNY Friedrichshafen. Quite a few of the Gaya Simulations hand crafted airports in previous updates have 3D terminal interiors, but unfortunately the main terminal and other buildings at this airport have those parallax interiors that I really do not like. I know that many of you think that parallax interiors are fine, but they destroy a lot of the immersion for me. They just look fake.

April 17, 20242 yr Premium Edition owners get the Dornier for $9.99 instead of $14.99. These bargain prices stay around I think forever, apparently no time limit. No doubt there will be a Premium Edition for 2024 too which may or may not include these kinds of bonuses. April 24 Q&A twitch.
