Hey guys. These pics were done using FS recorder. What I did was record a take off and steady flight up 1500 ft then fly straight out for about a hour. I did this about 8 times over 3 days replaying as traffic and recording all over again for each flight. Its a pain but if you want to practice your formation flying this is the best way to do it. The take off I used was that of which bomber pilots used during WWII for formation take offs. If you like to know more hit me up with a messege
Enjoy the pics:

Lol yea I know I tried but FS recorder seems to only allow 8 planes playing as traffic. There was another 17 where you only see the 2 and another B-24

Heres some new textures I did up for the B-17 and 24. I did the collings foundations NINE O NINE and the B-24 witchcraft. Also theres no memphis belle textures for this release, so I went ahead and did one. Its not the proper model of course. This is a G model and the belle was the F but I wanted the practice in paint shop for it.

I'm guessing from alphasim and A2A Simulations (formally known as shockwave productions)

The B-17 is payware from the Wings of power 2. Its well worth the money. I love it. The 24 is from alphasim, its from right off their site. Just go to avsim and download it from there. If anybody has these 2 and likes my textures hit me up I can send it to you. If you have a bomber you like and want the textures let me know and i'll do it for you.

Hi. I have been looking for a B24 repaint of the 467th-BG plane Witchcraft! I see that you have done this repaint, but wonder have you done for FSX? If you have I would very grateful if I could download from a link, maybe provided by you please?! cheers... 😀

What great pictures! Congratulations on the effort to achieve the number of aircraft flying so close together.
I have attempted in-flight refueling using FS Recorder and it was so hard with just two aircraft, let alone the number that you have displayed.
