Hiya Michael..
Thanks for that
I've searched everywhere and can only find the F3 :sad: Is it possible that the F8 was added for 2004 :think: Whatever.. no sign of it anywhere

F8? What F8?
I've only got an F3... but I did buy it over 100 years ago
Kind regards
John

Hi John,
Much like me mate
I bought the F3 the day it came out and that's all there was.. an F3, one paint and instructions for CFS2/FS2002
Happy days

I believe when the Meteor was upgraded to FS2004 the F8 was added with 2 skins, im not 100% but looking in the AS shop now if you buy it now you get FS2002/FS2004/CFS compatible versions with 2 F3 & 2 F8 textures.

As far as l know you should be able to get the others from Alphasim, it depends whether it has been defined as an update or a reworked product.
If its an update then you should be entitled to the updates, if its a rework ( re priced ) then l suspect not, having said that the models are three + years old now, l'm amazed there still in the shop TBH.
Your first port of call should be Alphasim for the above issue, after that, l cant really advise l'm afraid, there are other factors that must be taken into account.
Best

Thanks Michael, Phil's always really good with updating stuff. But on this occassion, the F3 will do me fine... it's the classic single seater meteor IMHO
Kind regards

I have to agree with you there John.. of sorts anyway
I feared that the 'current' Meteor was probably re-listed as a 'new' model and as such, became a new purchase rather than an update so I'll not be purchasing it again. If I flew it every day.. perhaps every week.. or even once every year, I'd consider the re-purchase but I don't so I won't be bothering Phil on this occassion
Changine the dyhedral on the F3 would sort it out (though this may have been done with the FD update) and like you, consider the F3 the best looking of the single-seaters
