Ah I see now. :lol: :lol: The BA I thought was a Viscount is a 748

Now you know why I never use those AI aircraft :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Woo hoo! Thanks DM. That's good enough for me :) (Just hope it keeps DB off my back for a bit :lol: You haven't got a Guernsey Viscount paint for Garry sitting around, I suppose? :lol: )

And there's the BCAL 1-11 where it should be as well.

Cheers

That Vanguards doesn't look too bad at all ....better than the Viscount and 748 :think:

No worries Ian

I am lucky as I have all the AI aircraft I want. :) ............but only because I don't use any AI at all :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ian..
You can always use Ricks model (make a new version.. change the aircraft.cfg to read a different model then delete all the stuff you don't need.. panel e t c) which of course, has a Guernsey paint :rock:

That looks smashing mate. I really must try and find why DM's EGCC gives me a problem as it's much better than either the default or UK2000. Probably an afcad issue or a stray traffic bgl that's been on my system for the last thousand years :lol:

Fly, my beauties! Fly!

I've restored MAN to DM's original and put some flight plans in place and the crowds turned out in their dozens for the inaugural flying day! The car park was packed with Cortinas and Anglias! Shame about the weather. The flight frequency seems about right but there's still plenty of tweaking to do. I'm going to make Friday my diversions day when fog will close LHR and LGW and we'll have a few exotic wide-bodies in for a couple of hours.

Thanks for this, DM.
