Re: TMA CL-44 paint request

Chris, Checked logbook - it must have been an overnight flight departing Kuwait for Beirut 21/7/65, then carrying on from Beirut to Heathrow (sorry London Airport !) via Geneva on the 22nd. My abiding memory of the flight (I was only 5) was getting my first ever Toblerone during the Geneva stop ! Ch...

Re: TMA CL-44 paint request

Chris - just took a peek at my Junior Jet Club log book - just possible that the signature of the captain on a Kuwait Airways Comet 4C flight from Kuwait to Heathrow via Beirut and Geneva in July 1965 was your dad - quite hard to decipher though. I think that I posted some photos of the demise of Tr...

Re: Heads Up SR - 53

Hi - the usual ..... Copied over interior model from a payware hunter that I'd bought in the past - could use any freeware FSX native internal model from a suitable type as an alternative (perhaps the recently issued Phantom on Simviation ?). Edited the Model.cfg file in notepad, copied over the new...

Re: Heads Up SR - 53

Author says that its his first FSX aircraft - a far better job than I could ever manage - Lets encourage him with this rare type - remember the old Airfix kit ......

Quite fun with a hunter VC substituted and 56 Sqdn checkers !

Re: What Things Really Annoy You?

People who drive at 40 on country roads where the 60 limit is perfectly safe, who then carry on at 40 when they come to a village with a 30 limit !

Re: Captain Sim's 737

Probably a dense question .... downloaded the demo but when I try to fly, it has doors, escape slide, spoilers, flaps etc all open / deployed - is that what "External Model" means, or am I being stupid and not doing something obvious to clean the aircraft up ?

Re: The Pond

Not sure whether this is relevant, but last night (Friday) Norton A/V was not letting me get to CBF, having been no problem in the past - a "severe" intrusion attempt, :( something about network traffic matching a known attack. Strangely I could get in perfectly on my phone, so I'm assumin...
