Vulcan Recommendations anyone ?
I'm torn between the Just Flight and the Phoenix Simulation Vulcans. I'm inclined towards the latter as they donate 50% of the price to 'Vulcan to the Sky' ( thanks Toby for reminding me about this ), but I'd like to hear anyone's views of them if possible.
I can only comment on the Just Flight one which I have and TBH its very good. A well presented model complemented with several good texture variations and quality sounds.
Oh and Just Flight included some RAF Cottesmore scenery as a little add-on bonus.

I suffer from paranoid amnesia. I can't remember who I don't trust.

There are 2 sides to the argument here Ben. One side (eg.. us) say it's over powered and can drop from the sky without warning and then there's the other side (eg.. them) that say the Vulcan flew like this (notwithstanding the real one didn't fall from the sky so willingly).
I cannot imagine that the real one was quite as 'difficult' (for want of a better word) to get right but.. one must never underestimate the skill of our RAF pilots
I'd like to offer the AS version as an alternative but I've no experience of it and noting it's age.. I doubt it comes close.

I'm fairly sure that was structural failure... if it was this one...Chris Sykes wrote:IMHO....... Just Flight's its the best model and looks a stunner......
Ive seen the vid of the vulcan that crashed a RAF Syerston!!! She was doing a display and stalled at low speed(if i remeber right) which is a :tuttut: and she fell out of the sky!!!!!

From Syerston history page...
On 20 September 1958 during the annual Battle of Britain Air show tragedy came to the Airfield. Avro Vulcan B1 VX770 being used by Rolls Royce for engine tests was giving a display. During a high speed run the aircraft broke up and crashed killing all the crew.
