Re: Valiant & Sea Hornet Flight Manuals

No problem. I'm having a more detailed read through now but I'm worried i'll get it confused with the EC135 manual and try to open the bomb bay doors :lol:

Re: MS2020 Improved A320 Update.

I suspect it will be nicely developed. The way Squirrel's (who makes excellent video's doesn't he. I've followed him on many games for some time) video read it sounded to be a 'crowd' developed project rather than a single individual, anyone of whom can add to the code base. Hopefully it'll gain mom...

Valiant & Sea Hornet Flight Manuals

Hello everyone, hope you're all keeping well. I've just been browsing Pistonheads (sorry, another forum :lol: ) and a chap there has posted a link which may be of interest to some here so I thought I'd share it. He's scanned a few aircraft flight manuals, mostly American but also including the Valia...

Re: MS2020 Improved A320 Update.

Saw this video too Nigel and quite looking forward to it. I have spent quite a lot of time in the Zibo 737 and think it's absolutely excellent. I'm still using it for IFR flying as the depth of the detail is just on another level in comparison to what's currently available in FS (not a criticism, th...

Re: Sad News If True

I fly over Bruntingthorpe on an almost daily basis. The site has had a significant number of cars covering large parts of the concrete areas for some time and there are more and more arriving all the time, it's expansion has been particularly noticeable during lockdown as cars are not being sold. Do...

Re: Any-one seen it yet?

Whilst that's just as impressive Joe I wouldn't have seen it. I'd have been too busy hiding under the bed! When I was a teenager one of my mates houses was a lovely bungalow on the hill at the top of the village. One night the tree in their garden got struck by lightning, fell onto the house and set...

Re: Any-one seen it yet?

We have Nigel. The Humberside unit was closed when the lease on their aircraft expired in 2016 and it's usually either us, the helicopter from Wakefield or the new P68's from Doncaster who attend jobs in Lincs.

Re: Any-one seen it yet?

I was involved with NVG's back in 1978 at Farnborough when they wanted to use the American ANVISS with gen 1 optics used only for choppers, to be safe to use on fast jets. The ANVISS was attached to the helmet adapter via two spring loaded ball bearings which would not stand more than 3 g before la...
