WIP: Aeroplane Heaven VC10

[Nigel H-J]

Looking forward to the VC10 if only for the VC Cockpit but just wonder how it will handle compared to the one here? After the Dove debacle don't you thing that they would come here for advice even for the BAC 1-11 after all, who better to ask other than those who have already produced these aircraft not to mention actually having flown the real VC10 Simulator at Brize or am I being a bit biased even before the release?

Speaking of the VC10 Simulator what has become of it?

Regards
Nigel.

I'm not sure where the VC10 simulator/s went but they were spoken for AFAIK. I doubt very much they're still 'full motion' though.

EDIT: Forgot.. I took this one from the inside..

Its being over 40 years ( sadly) since I've been in a VC10,( March 1976 was my last flight, in 5H-MOG ) the memory may be faulty, but the droops look both too large and too far extended to me

In mitigation, the slats are bring viewed from above, which will make them appear a little larger compared to a normal ground "front on" view (as provided by Dave).

That must have been on final approach to Brize then Dave.

AH have posted a few new progress pics on their FB page. It looks like the VC10 is still rolling along nicely.

Here's a blurb from Airdailyx as well, since I know some folks have problems accessing FB:

I hope it's more accurate than the Mosquito.

Problems with the Moz, Dave ?

Don't get me started! There are so many errors with the external model. True, most users wouldn't spot them, so they're quite happy, but for me it ruins it. It's now uninstalled.
