Classic British Flight Sim

Hi All, Having seen the screenshots on the Payware forum of Rick's new Hawk, I couldn't wait, so started practicing some low level work with the DSB Hawk. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/gjhowie/loop1.jpg Running in to the Cadair Pass http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/gjhowie/loop2.jpg E...

Good news Macs, It'll be good to see how you get on. I'm a bit tempted to try a Comet 4 transatlantic trip using the Ocean Stations and the sextant - would make a nice change from the Delco INS!

Hi Macs, It's been a long time since I looked at the Bubble Sextant add-on, but from memory it doesn't actually use the view of the sky, but simulates the Star based on the Assumed Pos, Azimuth and Elevation.

Ground Idle: 600 lbs/h (272kg/h) Taxi: 800 lbs/h (363kg/h) Normal Startup & Taxi Allowance 250 lbs (113kg) Sea Level T...

Thanks Dave,

I've got my eye on G-AROI, so long as I can find a route back to Liverpool with her :-)
