flightsimg Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 The recent post with a Mitchell B-25 gave me that idea of illustrating the moment when Doolittle Raid's bombers were to leave their carrier 430 NM from Japan, Apr. 18th, 1942. One more for my WW2 collection! -- that view with: .boxed FSX Gold Edition with the Acceleration Pack .a freeware North American B-25 Mitchell .weather with the FSXWX freeware .the freeware shader adjuster rdart78 and textures set -- Gérard Guichard, Dijon, Burgundy, France. i5 Intel processor, 4 Go of Ram, Nvidia GeForce 920MX, DirectX 12.0, and FSX Gold Edition with SP1, SP2.

Macroburst Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Exceptional piece of history represented. Doolittle taking those B-25s from Shangri-La was crazy but psychologically effective. Love your photo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Ever watch the movie Midway? It was pretty decent. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

flightsimg Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Sorry for being late to answer. I had to wake up early that Saturday and to sleep early :) Thanks a lot all for your kind comments! Think I was lucky to snap that pic (not so easy to put a formation flight on the deck of a AIcarrier ship :cool: ) And I swear I didn't see that movie Midway :) Even didn't know it existed (think it wasn't released in France indeed) Gérard Guichard, Dijon, Burgundy, France. i5 Intel processor, 4 Go of Ram, Nvidia GeForce 920MX, DirectX 12.0, and FSX Gold Edition with SP1, SP2.
