Classic British Flight Sim

Just saw Rick's old post and I am blown away at how good that looks compared to mine (my materials are all messed up on the external model). I think it'll be better to wait for his release, but in the meantime I can at least enjoy my version from the cockpit.

I'm still making improvements to it, and while I'm not sure I will ever be able to release this due to permissions and all that, I'm surprised I was able to get it converted to P3D's new MDL format with the VC and all of its clickspots/animations intact.

The best panel for the L-188 by far is Fraser's panel. Simulates everything except oil cooler flaps I think, includes switch sounds and working two-speed propeller modelling. I would recommend merging this external model with it.

Does anybody have a digital copy of an official operating handbook for the Trident (preferably Trident 3) that I could have a look at? I'm hoping to add more functionality to DM's Trident and a lot of the information I would need to do so can be found in the flight manual.

Thanks

My Freeware: Rick Piper' HS748 Fraser's Electra Manfred Jahn's L749 Mario Noriega's P180 Aeroproyecto EMB-110 (With the new KLN90b addon and a few of my own mods) Garry Russel's CL-44 Tinfork 737-200 (A new, FSX Native Tinmouse with a VC) Project Tupolev Tu-154 Suprunov Yak-40 FSX Beta And a host of...

Plus, much like DM's BAC 1-11, there are better alternatives to many of JF's classics. Manfred Jahn's Connie has switch sounds, a basic Crew Simulation, an almost fully functional F/E Panel, VC Rain (Which works even in FSX), functional superchargers, and is a free ware.

I completely agree with you there, I wasn't planning on getting it. I'm very selective about my payware.

Will it beat David Maltby's offering? Probably not. But who knows? Maybe after the DC-3, Connie, DC-6, Viscount, DC-8, and the more recent F-27 which--according to an actual F-27 pilot--apparently does not beat Fraser's F-27, JustFlight might be producing a winner. What I'm saying is, take your time...

I have fs9 and the 748
I'll get it going after supper

The 748 doesn't have an APU
