    Nice. One of the guys who wrote the first one (that I’m aware of, X-Plane?) was on the MU-2 message board a couple months ago asking for help finishing an updated version. From the amount of help that was offered I would expect a very polished version in the nearish future. (I’m assuming you were talking about the Mits lol)

    Went to a small WW2 airplane show local to me last week. Got to crawl up inside those bombers too.

    If you consider Blackhawks flying at 110kts in formation “high speed maneuvering” then you don’t wanna see how I flew Kiowas, Apaches or currently Chinooks for training events.

    I always thought those were cool planes. People hated them when they came in when I was working line service, I thought that weird buzz screech sound they made when taxiing in was awesome. Pain in the ass to fuel solo though.

    I always feel a little bad when I need a top off and the fueler is single reel/solo. Main, main, outer, outer, 45, tip, top lol. Sorry :oops:

    Fortunately 90% of my flying these days is between the same two airports and those cats have it down to a science.

    I will always remember every mu2 that came in getting the "dont ever touch the tip vent ever" instructions from the pilots lol!!! Pop the cap and let it vent while you got the ladder and never put your face inline with the cap. The falcon 20s were the same way.

    Because Mitsubishi in their infinite wisdom put the “vent tank before fueling” placard right next to the sniffle valves lol :confused:o_O

    Probably the one thing on that plane that’s a true head scratcher haha

    I had a few moments shortly after getting the thing when I saw line guys standing over the cap trying to pry it open “waitwaitwaitwaitwait!!!!!”

    Now I’m always sure to explain first lol

    That is very cool
    I love the noise. The louder the plane the cooler it is in my book.
    Haha, I remember having to be careful with this when I was working the line
