Classic British Flight Sim

Here's a bit of a Heath Robinson thing if ever there was one, its a model I photographed at the Mucklebourgh Collection at Weybourne in Norfolk while on holiday. A Sea Scout Class Airship. Seems to be partly made up of a fuselage of a Be2 with a Gas bag above. Wonder how it handled *-) :lol: https:/...

Jings, feels like it was just last year I was last saing thanks,

I reinstalled FTX Scotland today ( along with England and Wales ) and decided to see how well they had represented St Kilda. The answer is...not too bad, though I think Mike Dalgleish's model is more detailed. I really must visit this place in real life one day. :) http://i.imgur.com/Bku7v3l.jpg I'...

Most pupils probably didn't spend that much time in the...

Were there similar domes used for RAFRgt Rapier training? From what I could see in the displays they have, yes I think so, the technique was developed after the war in various diverse branches. They use an up to date modern variation of the system today, using an advanced digital projection technol...

It was in a delapidated state then, though there was a sign outside it explaining what it was an some info on the airfield too, which also has an interesting histo...
