Classic British Flight Sim

Nigel , hope you and yours well . Think for flight systems RTFM [ read the flippin' manual ] applies . To understand how to use it , and FS a/c may not totally work as the real world ones . I've an apology to make ... Don't think I RTFpictureaccurately... The A/P engagement paddles say Ail and Elev ...

PS . Ben , she's always been a 'FLUF' , amongst other names ....

' Fat Little Ugly 'Fing ' .

But I liked her , learned more in first yr on 73s than previous 12 on Tridents .

Nigel , looks good . I missed her as she was only chartered in for 1 year 89-90 . By then I'd left Cale/B.Airtours and gone back to mainline LHR on 737-300s. Did fly G-DDDV chartered in from Air Europe . Both had original A/P and Flight director systems [ APFDS ] , unlike the 73 ADVs [ advanced vari...

Kevin , Perhaps it's the word accounts ... Our son was/is pretty good at maths /arithmetic ...but his English comprehension was pretty awful . Only ever met one person who worked in accounts ..and she left to go cabin crew pretty quickly . Thus have no knowledge of their corporate mind set . The rum...

Joe , The RB211 fan fiasco which helped bankrupt RR , caused a big delay in obtaining more thrust . thus GE got to 50,00lbs with it's CF6-50 first . MDD putting centre wheel on the 10 allowed significant increase in weight , thus getting Europe-W. Coast US range on the -30. Manufacturing was cheaper...

Thanks for this . For Victorville to fill up is amazing ; it's massive . Just shows the state of play , even for freighters like the 'Deaf Cruizer and it's big bro' More Deaf 2 . By all accounts Tristar more advanced and nicer handling than MDD offerings , can only comment on Tristar . Which was gre...

Tony , looks great . Also still on fs9 , only struggling to get photoscenery in on Win 10 .

With hat , coat , door open ... perhaps it's because of the old Rules of The Air .. Rule 5 , no closer than 500' from any person , vessel , vehicle , or structure ! Or Anything to do with modern 'pootering for 'fotos .......having to set aperture , shutter speed , 'filum speed ...... Car running rea...

Lots of info here gents , all good . CS and TS , I have seen an a/c with that RPM restriction ...cannot remember what engine it was . The more modern Lycoming O-320s in 172s and Pa 28s , don't have that problem . Thanks Nev , was at it again on Fri. '' Dancing shoes '' in Gone Sick . Never really sa...

Nigel , think you have most of the info for the TAS indicator .. Never used one as all we're really interested in is IAS. TAS calculated on Whizz wheel for navigation. The white arc up to a max of 103 kts is allowable flap range . The Pa 28-161s of the AbbasAir school have 160hp Lycoming O-320s. We ...
