Have you considered expanding this forum to include all British Flight Sim enthusiasts, not just MSFS?
Guy.

On a personal view mate....i am a solid MSFS from way back when....not sure if we have a big following of Xplane here.....
Sure someone will be along to sort this out...

Garry..?
I hope it doesn't mean you won't stop sharing with us though....

As far as I'm awar this forum is not exclusively MSFS but I don't know of anyone who flies X-plane.
It might become confusing if it was trying to cover both but the need has not arisen as MSFS gives us all we want.
In anycase we are a forum supporting freeware, althougth HU for payware is given and comments and discussions do take place were are really freeware support...but flexible.

Guy this is one cracking model first attempt... I can't believe it, its superb, X-Plane has come alive with this, sadly I am stuck in my little time warp of FS9 so I will just have to enjoy the video, well done

My only real "gripe" with the model is the FS5-like engine spool up. Is this something you can fix within X-Plane or is it something you just have to "live with"? If not, I would really suggest getting the spool up to a more realistic time and performance because for having such an excellent semi-procedural panel (I only say "semi" because you have ganged some switches together so you don't have to flip them all, which I *LOVE*, but know there are some who would gripe in the FS world) it's the one real glaring failure.

Ah, well. There are ways to cheat, you know ...

Sorry Guy, hope i didn't sound to critical. I am actually very very impressed with the model. My first reaction though was that someone must have spent a very long time trying to replicate the cockpit almost 100% accurately. All very admirable, but quite possibly further than most flight sim fans would ever have enough patience to truly appreciate. Admittedly there's a few nutters here who would revel in being able to click all the buttons in the right order, but thats possibly because they are off their trolly here
Very well done though. All only your work? I'd have given up well before now... I take my hat of to you

Hi Guy
I saw your videos on the DH Comet forum which I've followed for years. I was so taken aback by the detail I felt they should be seen on here.
I'm a long term MSFS user (Mr Maltby's Comet 4 being my default aircraft in FSX) but I'll certainly consider trying X-Plane if you release your Comet!
Do keep us informed
Chris

Hi Guys
Looks like a "Labour of Love" model inside
Hats off on all the working bits
I didn't think XPlane supports complex exteriors as well as FS and with that much procedural detail your gonna be too busy to look from outside anyway.
top job mate & for free too which is rare
Many of the XPlane payware i have seen is not good enough to be payware but this looks worthy even though it's free
Regards
Rick
