Westland Lysander just became avail at simviation. It has a cool feature, flaps that retract and extend based on the speed of the a/c...all automatic. Takes off and lands on a dime.  This would be the perfect trainer aircraft. Lands about 50 kts, good top speed too, perfect for those clandestine drops into occupied France.

Request: Can anyone with UTX get me some shots of the Waikiki/Diamond Head area on Oahu?
I finally uninstalled Flight and I'm trying to figure out the best combo of addons to get my FSX Oahu looking pretty. Default FSX is missing almost all the beaches. Right now I'm leaning toward UTX with (eventually) FTX Global. I'm not interested in MegaScenery. I like to fly REALLY low!

Nice shots everyone! I love this thread  BTW, Is it a bit sad that a 6 year old civilian flight sim is currently the best platform for Naval ops?

I got so tired of the horrible, bright blue Pearl Harbor and the lack of any beeches or reefs near Waikiki. UTX adds the beaches, but I could never find anything that fixes the water class used. So, I bit the bullet and learned how to use FSX_KML. Before and after images below (with UTX and REX present in both): Before:  After:
