Classic British Flight Sim

"Those were the days my friends, we thought they'd never end!" Happy times waiting at Heathrow to board the Vanguard/Trident shuttle via the bus. (1964-1979). Funny thing, in 2015 I still boarded a bus at Terminal 5 to board an aircraft to the USA!! I was always under the impression that T...

I have used a Scan computer for flightsim (FSX) for over two years. I've been very pleased with the performance and customer support given by that company.

perhaps it was on the twenty first or was it the twenty third attempt today that I finally managed to re-install FSX! Hoorah!! But FSX does not include FSX Acceleration! So only two thirds of the way there. During the day I thoroughly cleaned all three disks and continued my searches on the web. At ...

Last night I managed to successfully fit a bomb ripple release switch (acbmbsw.zip) to the FCS Lancaster to which I had already added Chris Sykes weaponsx.zip, British Weapons only. With Chris Sykes weapons zip it is imperative that one installs the files via the FSX root file - if you try to instal...
