Wink Re: Armour / The Franklin Mint vs. Flight Simulator X

Wow, love those comparison shots -- actually makes me want to load up the sim and try it out! Are those custom skins or are they included with the game?

Hi PappyB,
yeah it's cool to extend the die-cast collection with a "virtual" one,
since it's getting harder and harder to find models for my Armour Hornet and Jolly Rogers collections!!

... actually it's all custom or add-ons:

Tomcat Jolly Rogers is from IRIS ... superb details !!
simMarket: IRIS - F-14A TOMCAT

The desert scheme Aggressor Hornet is included in the Acceleration Pack
YouTube - FSX Acceleration pack, F/A18A Hornet - f. video by Tomgun

The marauders hornet is free custom texture for the acceleration hornet

The CAF Tigermeet is included in the Xload Add-on,
but I had to change into a single-seat version ... like the real one
Captain Sim – Overview

The swiss twin-seater is a free custom texture for the Xload hornet.

... my virtual collection is huge now .... it would be cool to have all these planes in die-cast too !!
cheers
M.F
