Classic British Flight Sim

Not the right place perhaps, but that crash at Manchester; nothing to do with the Bristol of course. I tried to use the same runway with a Viscount yeterday and the building crash occurred every time. There must be a scenery fault.

Thanks Gary, I don't know why it crashed. It was on the first circuit barely off the runway at Manchester and I believe the message was 'building crash' . No buildings in the vicinity BUT maybe I veered off slightly and hit the radar tower by the edge of the runway. Keep up the good work. I'll look ...

Developer's perogative. After flying David Maltby's BAC111 in VC I have become a complete addict, but nevertheless I installed your SUPERfreighter and took her for a spin (my wife thinks I am working so it was a short circuit) and what a beauty! I did crash the flight simulator opening the doors in ...

Sorry. Being a newby I replied to an earlier thread without noting that there were 21 pages already posted, including a reply to my post. I will be more careful in future. The virtual cockpit is not exactly a video. It plays on Quicktime. The link still works for me and gives a good 360 view (zoomab...

I had great difficulty getting textures to display until I created a separate Aircraft file and changed the FSX.cfg accordingly. However I still don't get all of the textures in the VC to display (BAC 111). Any advice?

The Freighter is looking great Gary. Have you seen the virtual cockpit of the Canadian Bristol Freighter in Winnipeg? http://www.wcam.mb.ca/VRgateway.html?qtvr=freighter/index.html http://www.leespage.ca/h/tra/ca/m/w.html I remember seeing them lumbering into Montreal as a kid. TCA bought three for ...

Looks great!! Can't wait. I'll have mine in Trans Canada Airlines livery please.

Nope......it's not possible as the Viscount is not an FS.X native model. I must admit. It sounded a bit too easy. I had started to model a completely new Viscount a couple of years ago to obtain one with a virtual cockpit but ran into modelling problems with all of those oval windows and FSDS's err...

Am I correct in assuming that FSX can look to a different model file for the VC?
If so can we create a Vickers Viscount VC and use it with Rick Piper's unmatched quality Viscount?

My dream would be to have a Viscount (700) virtual cockpit equal in quality to David Maltby's incredible BAC 111.
