Me-thinks it won't be too long before they want a french version of this......i.e Km instead of Knots.....Metres instead of feet...and all switch names in french!!!!
I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.

Well if there is a French version of it DG will have to re write the Read Me so that it contains French Letters.

This is a nessessary precaution in case they get screwed trying to install it and then finding out they were putting it in the wrong place.

Hello,
Since T.A. Edison has invented some electrical stuff and B. Gates his non-operating system called Windows*, yes, we have abandonned the use of the candles ( yet we are a little conservatives ), and maybe in France we drive on the wrong side of the roads, but we know how to use an automatic installer... :lol: :lol: :lol:

On the same page of the same site, you will find:
L’installation
Elle est très simple, car complètement automatique. Il suffit de cliquer sur l’installateur et de se laisser guider jusqu’à ce que l’appareil soit installé.
A quick translation, of that is: Very easy, use the installer, click on it, and let's go...

At Francesim, there is enthusiastics revues about:
_ DM VC10
_ DM Trident
_ DM Comet4
_ RP Argosy
_ RP Gloster Meteor
_ RP Jet Provost
_ DG DH89
_ DP DH104

Last year, after I read the DMTrident revue on FranceSim, I try this fabulous plane. Before I had the DC VC10 a payware with a bozo autopilot and that sucks carb as a French girl burns your money with clothes. No comments...

From DM site, I have discovered too the Rick Piper planes, some others, and this forum. Since I'm using a numerous of British classics, I re-discovered the art of navigation with the VOR/NDB, the CIVA INS and the landings approaches "avec les fesses" like we said in France.
My PMDG 747 and my CS C130 are rusting in their virtual hangars. The DC VC10s were scrapped...

There is more french amators of british classics than you think. And a question that come back with regularity in the french forums is the handling of this damned British RR Dart engines... A readme in French will be a good idea. Some months ago, I had started a French translation of the Argosy readme, manual, and a short tutorial about the Dart engines, but due to lack of time, it isn't finished. And I'm not sure the Authors agree a French translation of their tutorial files.

Sorry, at all, French letters wil be not included with it... Maybe some British overcoats for the French amators that wanted to handled the planes in your rainy country...
