Classic British Flight Sim

Nice to hear that in spite of real life doing it's damnedest the Heron may well be flying soon. I know everyone strives to get as close to perfection as possible but there will always be limits to what can be achieved, and I'm sure the majority of users will be more than satisfied and grateful for t...

MarkW, I understand that you might be going back to the 'dark ages' of Llanbedr next year - I hear drone flying will maybe reappear! Keith - ex Llanbedr Eng Dev It's possible although with Aberporth seriously underperforming in attracting the kind of unmanned research it was set up to attract with ...

Something you may have missed as it was on the BBC Alba Gaelic language channel! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01pkm8g/Seo_am_Pleana_Island_Flying/ It's only available on iPlayer until Monday morning so if you do want to watch it you'll need to get a shift on, whether it'll get another airin...

Thanks for the replies, I'm glad others also think it's the AACF Dove and not just me imagining it. It's definately in RAF colours, whereas I think the Mayfair Dove is in an odd dark brown or black colour scheme. Like you say, perhaps it's on loan. I just wish they'd put something else on other than...

Does anyone based at Coventry know if Air Atlantique Classic Flight (if that's the name they fly by nowadays) still have their Dove? Only there appears to be one very similar being advertised for charter and air taxi services out of Shoreham despite the AACF still showing the Dove on their website. ...

I have to say my two flights with Ryanair were fine, we left on time both times. One return journey was weather delayed and when Birmingham became closed by snow we ended up in Manchester - which did show up a downside in that there was no-one to sort out onward transport, yours truly went outside t...
