Rjel Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Steve Hinton has got to be ranked as one of the greatest pilots of all time. Few could claim to have flown so many WWII types. If and hopefully when, the Great Battles series heads to the Pacific, I hope we get the Bearcat as a premium plane at least. I don’t care that it didn’t see combat in WWII. It’s just such a sleek design as a radial engined airplane. It would be pure joy to fly in this sim.
Gambit21 Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 Very nice. Saw one at Reno last year...couldn’t believe how hard and fast it climbed after take off.
LLv34_Flanker Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) S! Read pilots commented on Bearcat that it shot off the carrier like a rocket with very good acceleration and climbed like an homesick angel. Must have been quite a beast. Edited July 15, 2020 by LLv34_Flanker

=J18=FritzGerald Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) Well the shape of the engine, the wings a little, and the landing gear Mostly the landing gear though Edited July 15, 2020 by FlyingFalcon 1
BraveSirRobin Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Great airshow! It's not often that you see 2 Fw-190s in formation with a Me-110. 2
