Classic British Flight Sim

Hi Leif,

That's because we're not a 'one man' show matey John and I have had this (and many others) under consideration for a while but due to operational constraints, are not in a position to go out and buy whatever we fancy Having a model of this quality is certainly a step in the right direction

Quick `heads up` that 2 updates for the FS2004 model have been uploaded to Sim Outhouse. Varous fixes inc FD

And for those that are'nt members, they are at AVSIM as well

That's the original updated aircraft, not the fixes. Typically these take a few days to reach the other sites. You can have a lot of hours put in using the flight director and the IAS hold in that time!

Thanks for HU on updates Simon.

I remember the prototype visiting Guernsey in 1978 C-GNBX ( :think: ) and liking the aircraft from the 1st time I saw her.

Am now enjoying flying one in the FS world

It's a classic, fer sure. One of a handful, well small hatful these days, of FS planes to have a palpable sense of `mass` to go with its manoeuvrability - just like Ricks' 748/780, Dave's Dragon Rapide, the Chippie, Saab Safir and a few others.

Just like the 748 (and the YS11, and a few others) there is a finite limit to how steep the approach can be and still make the flare and land without excessive descent rates. Magic! It's a key factor in a successful flight model for me. :kissu:

It's very nice and all, but I think Mr Piper still has the edge over it
