Burning Blue Design North Weald PREVIEW & CowanSim 500E Area Flight - Microsoft Flight Simulator 4K

[@christopherdraper7131]

I went to my first ever airshow here back in 1985. Saw Gary Newman flying his Harvard painted up as a zero. Awsome days !!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@christopherdraper7131 fantastic! Love the Harvard…..beautiful sound as it flies past.

[@grahammonk6054]

I was at that one two lol

[@mikeallen789]

Looks fantastic, another great airfield by BBD to add to the collection. Thanks for doing the Vid & showcasing it.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@mikeallen789 many thanks!

[@AJL_UK]

Great video! Needless to say I've been shopping...:) Passed this airfield many times after landing on a commercial flight from the north to Stansted enroute to London for work. Hugely historical airfield and great to have it so faithfully recreated in the sim. Great preview! Thank you!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@AJL_UK many thanks, yes I love now it can suit different purposes, warbirds, GA, helicopters and I daresay bizjets, it makes a good base.

[@martinpengelly9155]

Another superb video and well so lifelike. Spent over 20 years at North Weald and its the one place that along with Anthony Hutton there, started the ball rolling for all that I've done in Warbirds and vintage aviation. Many many flights from there over the years in a myriad of types including countless Harvards, Mustangs, Avenger, Beech 17 and 18, Dakotas, Yak52s, Stearmans, Chipmunks, Jet Provost, T-28, Globe Swift, etc etc. Happy days never to be repeated. Burning Blue have done a wonderful job and you another worthy and watchable video. Thank you.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@martinpengelly9155 many thanks Martin. You have certainly had some fantastic experiences there!

[@paulmac9620]

The wall on the east side of the airfield is the old firing butts which is now a shooting Club. An excellent rendition of the airfield!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@paulmac9620 fantastic!, thanks!

[@Russell_G]

Thats what I thought too.

[@ukar69]

Been waiting for this for ages! Used to go there when they had the Fighter Meets and I’ve flown in a few times. Glad the water tower has been included. As a pilot you don’t want to fly north of it as you’d be in Stansted airspace. I believe the wall structure outside the entrance is the firing butts.

[@Dreamsofwings]

It’s great that they include those structures to add to the realism. Many thanks!

[@trevorulla3958]

Another great first review, this one is my local airfield which I have been waiting for the release for sometime, I know someone has already commented but the interesting wall you was flying over, the Epping pistol club. There is also a market on Sundays near where the ambulance service hanger is located. Glad we finally have NW in this level of detail in the sim. Thank you for bringing such great content and look forward to the next one!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@trevorulla3958 many thanks! Thanks also for the detail on the real place! Great to know they have got it right!

[@AngelofCruelty]

Really enjoying your videos sir! As a mainly GA pilot in msfs, you have had some real gems you have reviewed and I have yet to be disapointed with your recomendations! Would love to meet you in the sky one day for a formation flight or something over the south of the UK! Thanks for what you are doing!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@AngelofCruelty many thanks! So glad they are of some use! 🍻

[@crisjpalmer]

Excellent Video as usual Rob ... i'm glad i am not the only one who feels "Rusty" everytime i hop back into the 500E. BBD have done an amazing job, yet again.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@crisjpalmer many thanks, yes they’ve done a cracking job here as always.

[@AlphaIndigo]

Great Scenery and Airfield, looking forward to this one for the great mix and variety. The 500E is a joy to fly and you doing a great job taming this beastie. Another fantastic Video, well done Sir!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@AlphaIndigo many thanks! I had quite forgotten how squirrelly it can be!

[@needlesbeckett]

Great vid. Scenery looks great. Go to the airfield most days. I wish the front gates opened that quick in real life though

[@Dreamsofwings]

🤣 thanks!

[@Huddison]

Looks great; I'll share this on my discord.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@Huddison many thanks!

[@JoelBonham-j7z]

That will get bought so much it’s great hope your well

[@Sampara96]

I did my blue light driver training as a paramedic at this airfield! Looks great!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@Sampara96 ah fantastic! Thanks, good to know! I guess there is plenty of room for it.

[@mktm1290]

That’s just amazing, I go there quite often on my motorcycle to the wings cafe, it’s clearly rendered there, the detail is absolutely spot on, even the gate house! Fair play 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@mktm1290 fantastic! Many thanks

[@georginahallett8716]

Thank's for the excellent video. I think I'll be dipping into the pension for this one😉 BBD just seem to get better and better🙂

Ive been to north weald alot of times i use to fly at there shows years ago its also home to hanger 11 collection. My friend owns and in war times it was home to a famous hawker hurricane ace.i still fly warbirds out of weald lovely airfield Very cool vid.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@joey95661 many thanks 🍻

[@JoelBonham-j7z]

Yo I love the ultimate warbird flight pfp

[@andyh5224]

15:26 At first I thought it was a 25m range, but was probably butts for calibrating and testing the fighter aircraft guns.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@andyh5224 certainly has a historical look to it doesn’t it

[@michaelkaliski7651]

Lived there tears ago and have a friend with an aircraft hangared there and it looks pretty good. Close enough that you would recognise the place if you saw it after exploring the scenery.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@michaelkaliski7651 ah thats good to know, thanks!

[@TheLincolnshireFlyer]

Brilliant video. Love the MD500. May I ask what kit you use to fly sim helicopters?

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@TheLincolnshireFlyer many thanks! I use a Warthog grip on a 15cm extension to a Virpil WarBRD base, Thrustmaster TPR Pendular pedals and collective is a throttle lever on my Bravo. I would like to get a proper collective in my setup at some point.

[@porkorosso7885]

Wow! May I have my plane GOOPY hangered at EGSX. This looks amazing!

Great video, I’ll get this as soon as it arrives for Xbox ser x! cheers!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@malwalsh many thanks!

[@johnbower7452]

I wonder if the market is there on a Saturday in this add-on. IRL there is a Saturday market, it's much smaller than it used to be but still a decent morning out.

[@rampant54]

I did some flying lessons at North Weald

[@benholmes1608]

I was alright before we landed at the hospital. Now I've got a punctured lung, two chipped vertebrae, several fractured ribs and a fractured sternum!🤣

[@leonskevington]

I beleive that structure (15:20) is a pistol range

[@sascenturion]

Another great airfield by burning blue 👍 Nice idea to do Hems stuff from there 😀 . Your graphics are looking good ,as well as your eye/ head tracking is working great too. Quick question ..did you see my post/link in regards to Heritage flight simulations video of vr passthrough in their spitfire sim rig? ...must check it out 😊

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@sascenturionit’s a goodun for sure, like all their airfields it feels very real. Yes seen that video. Interesting idea

[@sascenturion]

​@@Dreamsofwings "interesting idea" ... Thought it would be right up your street lol ..being a warbird fan Looking forward to seeing some hems missions from here 😊

[@helicopterovirtual-msfs6254]

Fantástic.

@@helicopterovirtual-msfs6254 many thanks.

[@iflyc77]

Does the Saturday market that completely takes over the SE side of the field and all roads to and from the field show up in the scenery? lol

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@iflyc77 fortunately not! Though with their attention to detail it might one day no doubt 🤣

[@QBziZ]

That’s where Shortfield Terry used to fly from.

[@hill1975]

Duxford next please!..😁

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@hill1975 because of the excellent freeware from ChicoMick the guys at BBD have said there is no point spending time working on a Duxford.

Did I just see the BBD website on one of the atc screens

[@Dreamsofwings]

🤣 can’t blame ‘em for a spot of product placement lol

[@iantyson431]

Used to play sunday league football over there, the place was really run down back in the 80's

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@iantyson431 sounds like it must have had a lot of investment since then perhaps & the presence of emergency services probably helped.

[@iantyson431]

@@Dreamsofwings You also visited my place of work, Princess Alexandra Hospital, i've swept that bloody Heli pad more times than i can rememder lol

@iantyson431 amazing!! At least you will used to better pilots landing on it.

[@themunter4488]

I live next door !. Live hearing the older military planes buzzing around. Unfortunately the council have sold off a large chunk to Google. I belueve the control tower and current entrance will diappear.

I used to love Fightermeet here till it was stopped. A great shame, but I'm glad the locals stopped Red Ken building on all of it, a shame they are going to put houses (Apartments?) On some of it.
