Classic British Flight Sim

The Swift in the film was the second prototype (VV119) and was in the guise of Prometheus in the film. Actually it was a little unusal as the aircraft was still under test. The sound barrier thing was I suspect film fiction as the Swift was only capable of around 660 mph at sea level although this w...

The ones I remember in a plastic bag were the Series 1 Aircraft at 1/72nd scale such as the Spitfire or Hurricane etc...at 2/- a go (10p) larger aircraft were boxed as DaveB says...the Bristol Super Freighter arrived in 1959 along with other notables such as the Fairey Rotadyne....It was another yea...

Frequent visits to this site for the banter and good humour is just the tonic we all need. 8) Commiserations to you Ca...

I agree it would be a nice idea. I seem to remember that back in the days of FS98, Bill Lyons and a group of others actually re-created just such a thing with their 'Golden Wings' era of aircraft and scenery. If memory serves, a second installation was needed and you could start whichever timed vers...
