Classic British Flight Sim

Ant's freeware Tiger Moth, the Aerosoft Catalina and the CS C-130 all over VFR London and Horizon Sim's GenX Southern England and Wales V2.

Got some tweaking to do yet, and I need to reinstall London because I ended up putting it on the slower system drive instead of the Velociraptor D drive.








































Blimey I love flight simming some days!

Nice insert of HMS Belfast there Paul

You do realise you shouldn't be flying single-engined aircraft over London

Boris gave me a special dispensation, Dave

And rightly so too

Which VFR package is this (and is it free and FS9 compatible ?) I recall that there was a free London VFR package from the makers of the original VFR photo scenery but I cant find that on the web anymore.

I love the look of that VFR scenery, there are a few for London, I am curious as to which people feel is the best one?

All these screen grabs of Gen X for the UK you guys are posting are making me think i have to reach for my Credit Card very soon!

Its VFR London for FSX.

Not advertising it, just giving the link. There is a video to watch there.

I go into London a lot and love the place, so this was an inevitable add-on for me. Also part of my intention to develop the south of England in FSX with add-ons

Thanks Paul,

Appreciate the reply, I always had a love it / hate it relationship with London, but you cannot deny what an awesome Historical City it is. I worked for Playstation just off Oxford Street before I moved to the USA a couple of years ago. I never tired of taking the train in to Waterloo for work and walking over the Bridge taking in the sights, so it will be great to do so from above in FSX.... will no doubt make me home sick, I have only been home for 2 days in almost 3 years

Thanks again!

You are very welcome Sketchy.

I'm very fortunate to be able to head into London whenever somethings on; its only 50 minutes on the non-stop train from Cambridge. We've been able to go to things like the Edward Hopper exhibition at the Tate Modern, and the Millais one a couple of years ago at the Tate Britain. Added to that the Proms concerts at the Albert Hall, the museums and theatres, and you're never at a loss for something to do. I love the great old buildings and monuments too, that hark back to the zenith of our power and influence in the world. Sad that its all gone now. A great capital city ...but capital of nothing much these days, I feel.

I know how you feel, but moving away to another country for a while you realise how much London really is still a capital of something very special.

Mind you Cambridge is a great place too, always loved going there for the day also!
