Classic British Flight Sim

Thanks Fellas, well I certainly got a debate going! Sounds like the problem is situated around me using FSX keystrokes. I'll work through the suggestions and see what works although I'm out tonight so might not be able to 'strap in' until Friday.

Ok got all the thumbnails in place the other day (eg the individual aircraft folders). I can now select Vickers in the aircraft selection and the thumbnail appears eg for the Brooklands version. I can select this but what always turns up on the runway is 369. This aircraft also appears if I make no ...

Excellent help from all.

WF372 was tail letter A when I flew in it at Stradishall. They stuck two of us in the bomb aimers pit for the 6+ hours it took to get up to the north of Scotland and back in a loop round the North Sea on a Nav exercise. Kept us out of the way I guess but at 15 it was like ...

The 'Vickers' fix worked thanks. Minus 2D cockpit and so far I have been unable to select versions but very pleased. Just had a quick flight from Waddington and back again.

The Varsity team usually come in on Tuesdays, I'll be there tomorrow, but I also steward on board at ...

Any chance that there is a version of the Varsity available for FSX or a way of porting it over? I regularly volunteer and work on the Brooklands Varsity on which the sim detail is based...even down to the photogrpahs on the panels replacing instruments we had not yet acquired! (But now have) I also ...

Many thanks Dave, keen to recreate a couple of aerobatic flights I had in the 60s in the ATC! I also Steward at Brooklands and frequently use the Chippy cockpit there during education tours- the same cockpit that the sim is based on I believe.

Need a bit of help installing the Chipmunk in FSX. Instructions say post contents of zip into aircraft folder. I have several folder from Alpha Sim etc. OK but does that mean all of it or less the effects it suggests should be posted in effects folder? Do I just chuck the contents of effects into ...
