Thanks for that link Tony, have not seen that one before.

Think I may well download the Concorde and see what it is like.

Regards

The FSFrance model was probably the only freeware Concorde produced and yes.. it wasn't half bad ;-) The FD was continually fettled with updates posted on the major sites :)

The FS France Concorde was awful

Apart from some serious shape isuses it flew badly and the afterburners and smoke used to cut off after about a minuet on I think, it was the starboard

Impossible to trim and a nightmare to fly..other than that it was great :)

Maybe there was a later better version but I downloaded it more than once and never did get it to work right :-(

Thanks Garry, have downloaded it but not installed on FS yet. I did the installation into one of my folders on desk top to see what the packaging is like. Unfortunately as with some other self installers there is no uninstall feature available so if found to be not to your liking, then it would be hell on earth searching down all the installed files to uninstall from FS9. :brick:

Hi Nigel

That may have been my problem in that it autoinstalled incorrectly

You could try auto installing into a new folder and picking up the bits from there. :think:

That is probably the better potion Garry, but think I might leave this one.....Alarm bells are ringing.

I well remember the Beverly

It appears there was a problem with the auto installer

That was the first one I ever used

it seemed I was picking bits of Beverley out of various places for weeks :lol: :lol:

Never trusted them since but stil used them on things like thise. That was at I time I had not thought to send it to a temp.
