Hello, Robert,
Ha. And they said it would never fly.... They didn't know about MSFS.
All in good fun.

This is a very nice "plane" (?), or flying machine. The sounds are unique, like an steam locomotive.

In the vein of this post - I am suprised no one has ever done a model of Sir George Cayley's glider for MSFS, has his design was used for the first recorded flight of an adult in an aircraft. More about it and several replica's here:- www.glidingmagazine.com/FeatureArticle.asp?id=357 |

Hello, All,
Yes, the Cayley glider would be interesting. That website only hinted at it, but note that Cayley didn't fly it himself. He had one of his servants, his coachman, try it out. No dolt, Sir George.
All in good historical fun.

Other than the default Wright Flyer, I'd say the Curtiss Reims Racer, Demoiselle, Blerior XI, and the Antoinette. Caz Double-posting this link again, had it in a thread in The Grille. Here's all my real oldies in GW3.  |
