I like this one

£1000 a year all found! According to an inflation calculator I found on line, thats the equivalent of £12,954.91 using the retail price index.

Ark Royal

Thats great news! Shame I'm stuck at work now and won't be able to d/l it until 8 tonight. My uncle was on Ark till '78 in the engine room. Sadly he passed away some years ago, so I'll think of him while using it.

from memory of a book I read with the experiences of FAA pilots from 1945-1990, they used to do their first carrier landings on the actual aircraft when they were posted to the headquarters squadron. There was definitely one story from a guy who did his first traps in the Scimitar :shock:

Something seems to have gone wrong with those messages on my installation, and now they take up a quarter of the screen! Is there any way of editing the size or restoring it to default? I've tried reloading the fs9.cfg and starting a new flight from scratch, and it has stayed the same.

Bought this the other day, it's very good. Big selection of models and paints, and the FGR.2 with Ferranti pod is included with it. The only thing I don;t like is that the wing fold on the Navy models folds in too much.
