Classic British Flight Sim

You might get that massage parlour yet, Brian.

Very glad to hear it, Mike.

This might be the same problem as you had before, but in reverse. Try going to the drop-down menu Scenery Library/Navigraph-AIRAC Cycle 1801. If you have "Do not use Navigraph database" selected, change it to "Use Navigraph for Navaids and Procedures". A lot of the VORs and DMEs ...

Would you believe I still haven't made it to Duxford 😳 Leave it until the summer months. They add an extra hour to the opening times, and if you have to come a long way, it'll be worth it. Also check to make sure it's a 'normal' day i.e. no special events which might restrict access to certain area...

Happy Birthday, Kevin.

Hi Mike - I've zoomed in as much as I can and it says 'HOLDING DOWN RINGS'' rather than WINGS. Definitely an R, not a W.

Visited the exhibition today, so here's a selection of random shots in no specific order, with Mike's requested starboard side cockpit close-ups ( or as close up as I could get them ). Only six of the promised seven aircraft are on display, but at least there was one that got off the ground. https:/...

They look pretty convincing to me, Mike. Couldn't tell you what the markings mean, though the colours remind me of different types of fire extinguisher, oddly enough. Is there anything you can't 3D print these days ?

If you do go back, I'd be very interested in detailed photos of the starboard side cockpit area.

I shall do my best, Mike.

Yes, a Mk.IIB. According to the IWM, it was one of the ones we sent to the USSR, and was recovered from there. I think I might go back down to Duxford and have a closer look at this exhibition. According to various blurbs, there are now seven airworthy ones together ( so, eight on site in total ).
