500 hours

Arguably the finest fighter aircraft of World War II.

500 hours

Got to 500 hrs on the 51 now.
Does this mean I am ready for the AT6?
Or is it the other way around.

Well you are doing better than I am. I have 45 hours on the 172, around 102 hours on the P-51 and 200 and change on the B-17. I can never decide which one to fly as I enjoy them all the same. Gotta love these A2A aircraft, they are great :D .

Keep smiling
Tug :)

Roger on deciding which aircraft to fly. Each one is interesting in their own way. Be it in a modern or vintage atmosphere.
I mostly fly vintage aircraft in FS9 and now FSX.
I was never much interested in fighters till I got the P40. Then the 51, Spit, and 47.
Same with modern GA. Never thought I would care for these. The 172, now with 200hrs on her. Then the Cherokee, and soon the 182.

Thanks Lewis. This is after several engine swaps. I keep up on the maintenance pretty well. Currently about 75hrs on the engine. A couple of cylinders showing a bit low on compression now.
