Greetings! I usually fly GA aircraft, but every once in a while I just have to bust out something loud and fast and run some canyons. For this exercise, I loaded up the A2A P-51 Civilian, Orbx CRM, Opus FSX and set a course from Lewiston (KLWS) to Weiser (S87), Idaho. This route follows the Snake River along the border of Idaho and Washington and is popularly known as Hells Canyon. In a small aircraft you can take-off and land at Weiser. However, in something as fast as the P-51 you are pretty much limited to KLWS. My P-51 mechanic scolded me severely for running the Glamorous Gal into the airport fence last time I tried to land at Weiser... Besides that, I needed to make sure I know the new AVSIM picture posting process! Hells Canyon is actually pretty wide (remember Evel Knievel and his infamous not-jump of the Snake River?), so storming along at 100-200 feet above the river is not unreasonable. It is pretty calm inside the cockpit, about 220-250 knots with mild manifold pressure, a relaxed prop speed, and only (!) 4G maximum load. Apparently I was out-racing a rain squall on my trip south, and ran into the weather on the return leg. Added a couple thousand feet for a relaxed return home. I just love Orbx scenery! All clear. KLWS is right over the top of the rise in the middle of view. Hope you enjoyed the flight! Hmmm. I appeared to have done something wrong, since the Dropbox pictures are not showing. If you right-click on the icon it works, but that is just not right... Maybe using the suggested fsfiles site will work...

It's been released, anyone got it? How does it compare to the A2A P-51?

Dear Flight Community, I have recently created a couple of repaints that I feel the online community will really love. I have mastered the ability to make aircraft appear metallic. I have also created a Flight camouflage that will completely hide your plane in the game. So, please check them out and tell me what you think. Thanks and enjoy. http://flight.dpxpc.com/downloads.html Sincerely, DXC
