On the CBFS home page there is a picture of a yellow delta winged aircraft, which looks a bit like an FD2.

Can anyone tell me what it is and where can I download it?

Thanks

It's an Avro 707

Scale test aircraft for the Vulcan

I don't think it's been released yet

Garry (and CaptKidd)

It is the 707 as described and has been out for yonks!! :shock: DM wasn't going to release it as it was unfinished but he opened it up for a 24hr, once in a lifetime download :wink: I can't remember what state it was in.. eg, if it had a panel or not e t c and it was certainly a bit of a handful. Good fun though all the same and definately different :smile:

It is around here somewhere, but even I can't find it. :dunno:

The file is still there, so here's the link...
AVRO 707A

It never was finished to the originally intended standard, but can be used in an emergency.
It's quite nice to look at. :smile:
A bit odd to fly. Upward tilting flaps doesn't help.

Comes in yellow & orange & it's got a groovy parachute.
