That drag chute is superb, can you imagine airports today coping with having to pick those up every 5 minutes! The dayglo Caravelle may be a figment of my imagination and fading memory. I'll have a look around and post anything I find.

Fingers crossed that there's a United Airlines Caravelle in AFG's bag of goodies. :prayer:

Obviously SAS does it for me ;-)

As SAS didn't use the VC10 the Caravelle comes in as the second choice.

We even have a very well preserved one at our technical museum....

And here is the David Maltby style VC we all want to see of course :wink:

I have been flying Benoît Gaurant's Super 12 regularly, ever since it first became available.

Still works well in FS9 but I am really looking forward to the AFG release, which, I believe, has a panel created by Benoit.

Hey everyone,

yep United will be done eventually, although it used a later model of the Caravelle. The VI-R if I'm not completely mistaken. Which had different cockpit windows to the earlier IA, III and VI-N. Also added thrust reversers and Pratt & Whitney engines.

The VI-R is completed as a 3D model, however only the III and VI-N (Which externally is similar to the III) have a full set of master textures, so given time United is coming :smile:

calypso, our panel designer is Benoît Gaurant. I believe the initial III/VI-N will feature 3 differing panel versions :shock: :welldone:

Hi all

Calypso,
Nice to see you around here again! :smile:
What Russian airport is it that one? I don't think I have it. Oh, I'm Rigel on the Project PT forum!
I have a suspicion that we can't post any more HU related to non British stuff, judging by that locked Post above. :sad:

Hakon
Many thanks again for your efforts in bringing this magnificent plane into reality! :welldone:
It is a pity that some do not appreciate that and only talk about if it is a British product or not. Small-mindless!!

ravilamir,

Read the forum! You can post non British stuff in CNB... as long as its CLASSIC. Hence why the Caravelle is here and is one of the most popular threads.

Please think before you post a nonsense statement. OFFTOPIC
