Classic British Flight Sim

Whilst watching the excellent documentary 'High Flyers' (see the Glory Days thread in Gallery) I spotted my next project. It's the Airspeed Courier.
It became well known when "Cobham's early experiments with in-flight refuelling were based on a specially adapted Airspeed Courier.
This craft was eventually modified by Airspeed to Cobham's specification, for a non-stop flight from London to India, using in-flight refuelling to extend the aeroplane's flight duration."

An interesting subject Dave and more my 'thing'

Excellent choice, Dave!

Half of an Oxford, but which half? Nice one Dave.
I can cross that off my to do list then.....

A nice Oxford would be welcome

Couldn't agree more!
I love the Oxford.
I did one in FSDS, but it was less than successful, partly due to being able to see through the entire airframe when looking through the bomb aimer perspex etc.

Toilet arrangements must have been interesting on that non-stop to India. Good job it was going to and not coming from.

My Dad flew Oxfords. Taught Pilot Instructors.

This aircraft would be perfect for flights to and from India. It's an Airspeed Curry-er.
