Spitfire Mk IXc - First Look - Microsoft Flight Simulator

Taking a first look at the Flying Iron Simulations Supermarine Spitfire Mk IXc for Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS). I run through the cockpit, supported systems, start-up, take-off, perform some maneuvers and land back at Duxford (EGSU) for my final thoughts.

MY GAME MODS (One tab per game)

I actually live next to Duxford and live right under the landing path. So often get many a Spitfire coming in fast and hot to do low passes just hundreds of feet above my house. They're my daughters fav plane. So love this video Squirrel. Good choice.

Squirrel’s back, if he sees this thanks to you because I have watched you for 7 years on Euro Truck you’re a legend

I am lucky enough to live close to Goodwood . They have a Spitfire there which often fly over my house, so to see what the pilot see is truly magical.

If it's hard in a game imagine how hard it was IRL, not to mention they were in the air within 10 minutes of the call. Massive respect.

Having been to Duxford many time for the flying legends airshow. The detail on this is spot on to the point. I can't wait to go there again when all this madness is over.

[flavioheggli]

Wow! That was just one of the most immersive flights i ever had! Thank you for that, with all those details!! Lovely!

[maxmaxneolit]

That touchdown was as smooth as they come. Nicely done mate.

I am German. This Warbird is phantastic. The Sim makes its work fine. When i land a taildragger Aircraft In a Sim, i fly into the Final with a long Curve. So i can see the Runway better. I enjoyed this Video .

“In flight there are some things we have to watch out for”... Ze Germans!?!

[JenniferinIllinois]

That was the best takeoff I've seen anybody do so far in the Spitfire. Nice job Squirrel.

[Wraithdagger]

Haven't had this much fun with a video in a while.
Welcome back to the Youtubes, Squirrel!

[shloomyshloms]

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been to duxford, one of my favourite places and to see these doing low passes is phenomenal

[WheeledMohawk]

I used to go to Duxford every year for a bus show just so me & my dad could wander round and have a look at all the aircraft. One of the most enjoyable memories I have as a kid seeing these kind of machines up close basking in the sun on the tarmac or in the hangers

[williamstilgoe]

Havnt seen you for a while, love your calm but excited deliveries. I fly DCS and MSFS, off to try some of this stuff on DCS NOW, CHEERS.

[SparkySven]

Best review so for of the spitfire. I bought it when it came out and love this plane in VR with my HP Reverb G2

[Pricklyhedgehog]

Nicely done, smooth take off and landing, and great explanation of the techniques, aircraft foibles and quirks, and cockpit layout. Bravo, old bean!

[JohnMcMahon.]

If any old veteran pilots are still alive they would love this video. I’m sure they’d be scrutinising and telling us any little mistakes in the sim. But it looks amazing to me. 👍

[GaryJohnWalker]

A deserved round of applause after all that - this does look compelling.

[wizardgrape]

"Hi guys Squirrel here" That was good to hear, welcome back!

[volkerjansen]

Beautiful video, thank you very much! Your takeoff and landing were a lot smoother than mine. I'm currently on a tour around the UK in this plane and love every minute of it :) Perfect timing as it arrived just after the UK world update.
