There are quite a few very good aircraft out there in flight sim land. for me the pinacle would be the comet. The main jet i flew within cbfs / flynet in the early days. AHH! those were the days.
second would be the BAC1-11. as for turbo prop, Argosy then 748 and finally for the piston prop. wait for it, sorry chaps but for fs9 only , it was the DC3.

First flight of a Trident was 45 years ago to the day we started reassembling G-AWZK in MAN, fitting really :smile:

If Ruskin Airways could use them on the BBC many monns ago then i can in FS9. :lol:

I just wonder if anyone out there can still remember that series on the telly. i think in the early 80's. all his aircraft were the beloved DC3. Well the MAAM does have a nice rendition of a british outfit. surley that counts. :think:

Ahhhhhhhhhh yes

Used fictitious G-AGHY an G-AGIV :think: ?

There was going to be another series with the L-749 Connie N7777G

But it was too corroded and it ended up with the Science Museum where is still is

The Dak...trying to remember .I think it might have been G-BHUB. and also G-DAKS .they were Aces High Daks.

Quite liked his girlfriend...Polly Hemingway (I think):smile:

I'd go for either the Britannia or the Rapide. Neither of them are in the poll, but they are the only classic British airliners I've flown in, in real life. :smile:

Had to be the 10. But the 121 was a very close second :shock:

I voted for the 1-11 as its the only classic british aircraft i have flown in.

Fortunately for me all my other flights have been in aircraft you could consider classics:1-11,tristar,two versions of the 707 and the 737-200,not bad considering my first ever flight was in 1995.

No no no, you can't miss off the Viscount. :k:
That could have pushed for first place.

My favourite changes with time.
I probably voted for the best looking one last time. :smile:
