"Chug-a-Boom" is the name affectionately given to the Boeing 307 Stratoliner by a good friend of mine who shall remain nameless. Well, actually it was Tony Hoskin !
I'd already completed two round the world trips using MS's Flight Simulator, initially in a Boeing 767-300 and then in a Falcon 50. The last was completed about fifteen months ago and I felt that it was time to move off again - but at a much more leisurely pace. Using MS's Flight Simulator 2002 I quite fancied a low and slow trek around the globe. But which aircraft to use ?
There is such a wealth of talented designers about and the choice truly is vast. But recently, Al Kaiser released a wonderful model of the B307 Stratoliner (B307.zip available from www.avsim.com) . As soon as I saw this aircraft, I knew it was the one to use.
So without further ado, please select from the links below to see how things went, people to thank and any other bit and pieces.
Thankyou for stopping by and I hope you'll enjoy the story.
