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

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




Thanks for all the info lowdown on the above, Model Fan! What Graphics Accelerator card(s) do you use on your PC - NVIDIA or ATI? Thanks!
