The best Civilian Cat in SL
Great Mesh construction. easy to fly around, and still not *too* easy, turning takes a time, as it has to !!
And hey, it's a cat!, what more does one want :)
Clearly the best civilian Cat in SL!
An absolute joy to fly.
I was torn if I should buy this or not for a long time, but I am glad I did.
I love my old lady. Some might call her ugly, but what she lacks in looks, she more than makes up in character and charm. To me, she is the most beautiful plane in the world.
This plane is perfect for sight-seeing and low altitude, low speed cruising in the skies (watch out for banlines though). The sounds are good and not grating to the ears, and are looped well.
The flight physics are fairly simple, but that makes it quite attractive for beginning pilots who don't want to learn 70 different shortcuts and pre-flight procedures. Just turn on power, turn on engines, taxi to the runway (or river), turn up the throttle and off you go!
This plane has a low stall speed which makes it easy to manoeuver. The turn radius is a little big in banking, but you can compensate for it by pulling back on the stick. Achieving a level flight is easy as the plane is very responsive to controls and does need trimming once you get the elevation just right. It crosses regions like a dream too.
This plane, classidied as "medium seaplane" in GTFO! might not be the nimblest plane out there, but when I fly mine, I feel like the queen of the skies.
Years later I still love this plane!!
This was the first plane I ever bought, and years later it still flys just as good as the day I got it!
I love this Plane!!!
So i was so confused as to which one to buy. but i settled on this one. I love it , it flys well and looks great . put a paint job on it and fly it all over. the only improvments i can see that would make it more enjoyable is if there were a way to open the rear blister glass and fish from it or lay on the two beds that have no poses , or cuddle your partner , this plane is prime for camping at sea.
Tig, great creation.
I have always wanted this plane, got it now. I know Tig from the past, when i was in the Flying Tigers. Have bought several of her creations, always happy with, great creature. :0)
Very good plane !
I have a lot of planes and this one is one of my best
Cross sim very good
