Classic British Flight Sim

Here's what our research (which may be wrong!) boils down to: Canada - cheaper housing, but balanced by lower wages. A bit cold in parts. Probably good for ski-ing. Australia - cheaper housing, good standard of living. Perhaps a bit hot for me, but Mrs. Simtrac loves the heat. Also, as I see it, onc...

Toby, I raise my hand and say that I voted for the man 1997. Never again. I am absolutely fuming with what they are doing with my country. He is a power crazed charlatan who seems hell bent on getting his name in the history books no matter what - and by making what is now being hailed as the bigges...

So are we Rick. I just do not know what is happening. As a retired Lieutenant RN this is making my blood boil.

Sorry to butt in chaps, but this seemed as good a place as any ... I took the plunge and got FSX today. I agree with Rick. I have just been having a ball with the PD Spit in FSX. The water, the vastly improved visibility rendering, the general feel of the sim combined with an aircraft of this class ...

It's a while since I flew the 707 (I haven't got it installed at the moment either), but I remember with the first version released, it porpoised very badly at altitude and there was no way the old girl could stay on an ILS - and yes - it did actually make me queasy! Then CS released a replacement g...
