Hi Leif,
Are my ancient eyes deceiving me or is the registration on the tail really showing as G-AJX1? Shouldn't it be G-AJXI?

G-AJXI went to F-BHVY in 1957 is what I have.
I remember G-AJLS parked/rotting at Fairoaks in the very early 60s.

Wow! Remind me to never create a classic British aircraft for FS2004. Nothing gets past this forum's eagle-eyes.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the comments and screenies of my Oxbox. Don't
look too closely though because there is bound to be a myriad
of other mistakes!!
This was my first aircraft for MSFS so there are bound to be a few rough
edges. I have a long way to go before I can claim to compete with the likes of Dave Garwood et al.
Hope you all enjoy it all the same.
regards
Keith
