Old black/blue bird sr71 custom aircraft?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, asked for your help a while back and got myself the 2.00 747. Great aircraft. Started playing the game again after finding FSX is absolute rubbish, I'm after the old bluebird aircraft. I remember using it years ago, I think before this sites hack. Does anyone have it? It was uncontrollable to say the least but it was a lot of fun.

 

Thanks for any help!

Gosh, I thought this forum had mummified...

 

 

 It was uncontrollable to say the least...

 

lol. I did have it (not much help any help at all) but after about 20 minutes binned it for that very reason. Do you have any idea who made it? We might be able to find an email address.

 

Still, it's nice to know someone else is still using FU.

Hello Andre,

 

nice to hear from you again here. Your archive is also of good switzerland quality, he... ^_^

 

It seems you still enjoy it and can't fly high and fast enough over the alp's with the good old bucking Blackbird SR71?

I also have some of this old stuff on my archive-HDD.... also the "Reno Racing application" brought me a lot of fun. Sometimes if I feel something itchy in my fingers ... I do it again:

Fly fast + deep + turn left !!!

 

Very nice greetings to all who still like to enjoy the good old FU3 from time to time.

Hello.

I still have a lot of addons stored on DVD and diskettes.

Aircrafts and scenery.

FU3 is still one of the best "feeling of flight simulator".

 

Nice to see this forum is not dead.

Never got hold of the Reno download but have had a lot of fun over the years flying up and down the Grand Canyon keeping within a few feet of the ground and seeing the canyon walls become floor and ceiling.

 

Mostly in the P51, though even after all this time I still can't land it...

 

Taking a wrong turning doing it in FU3 is interesting, especially if I try to keep it below the altitude of the surrounding ground. My memory is slipping as I get older and I've had to place some very unlikely dock-cranes along the canyon to point the way.

 

It's just not the same in FS9, though this is only 30 minutes from my home: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjqcCf9ktJE Less if I do it myself on the desktop (and I can get lower!)

 

Cheers,

D

Hi Dave,

"Never got hold of the Reno download" ....

If you never did it pls. give it a try to get it run if you like racing. 

It is a good macro programming of FU3 with AI-planes flying the course direct behind you. 

You will really "feel the racing" athmosphere with great Reno engine sounds surrounding you. The other engines flying the course intelligent together with you! I didn't know if there is any sim who can do like this.

Will mean the other planes learn trying to fly similar as fast as you did. If you get better they are also did it faster+nearer.

 

Sure it is a bit tricky to find the course pylons around - but don't give up to early - if your'e a race guy you will be satisfied later on - for NO MONEY.

May be some crashes occour and an voice in the background is crying: "You idiot... :Shame On You: " - but don't give up than - and learn. :wink:

 

Best is to run with a tuned Mustang P51-D - my "Dago Red" upload gives a good and well fitting model for this.

The course goes left around several red/white pylons in nearly an oval around the area. Start flying high and simply train a bit around until you got it. You have to fly right behind the pylons! Later on try to fly much deeper and sharp around the pylons. I hold the plane nearly all the time in 80-90° vertical turned position.

In this modus the other planes are very near behind you, try to overtake you etc.

 

After some hours of training - you will be nearly in a race fever.

In MSFS or Xplane I never heard of anything comparable - but may be I'm wrong inbetween.

If you struggle to get it installed+work and if you would like to do pls. give me a private mail - and we will got it.

 

Nice greetings Ansgar
