Classic British Flight Sim

CS , like you I wonder . BAC 111s on start the Speys sound like a sewing machine on wind up . Tristars Rb 211 22cs like a rumbling diesel starting . The Darts whine , garrett APUs whistled hi pitch , I guess due to hi RPMs [ C40,000 on similar Artoustes and Paloustes ]. A400s sometimes are around 3t...

CS , Amazing how when a subject is discussed with back and forth , the memory cells from 30 yrs ago are reactivated . Don’t think that’s in aircrew human factors training . You’ve brought it back to life .. ATPs were started [ I think ] with props in feather position , when core running , the prop w...

CS , agree on the Harvard tips going supersonic . The company one at Compton Abbas if wanting to attract attention certainly does on most joy ride flights . If solo , she can be airborne with lower prop RPM , and thus quieter . Had 4 very happy years flying ATPs with Highland Division based in GLA ,...

Pete , getting smaller ... Chas mailed this am , with vid of T2 landing BOH . Good vid , can't get my fs '04 properly into Win10. so nice to see a good vid . I've sent your rgds , and asked if he wants to contact .. Would love to see the Lightning in flt , maybe have a go ! Was a spotter at Coltisha...

CS , remember some were more clear than others ... In my early days glad I'd not have had to do it , Broad 'Naarfick dialect would not have been readily understandable . Mind you some Scotties with deep GLA accents would have been awful as well . London Volmet still there .... might even be worse as...

PP , very small world , just 2 mins ago finished an email reply to Chas ! He's well and B'Mouth way . In normal times see him often , as he's a share in a J-3 Cub at Compton Abbas . And I sometimes fly with him on his Bi-ennial reval flight . As for Northern sectors , a belated thank you for being a...
