Really depends what your after, most of the guys stuff is available here in the members section, www.dmflightsim.co.uk or over at www.classicbritishfiles.com

Not explicitly FSX, I don't think there is an FSX specific site.

Most of the FS.9 stuff used from these sites seem to run OK in FS.X and there are suport forums here that anwser any oddities that do show up on the models that our Gurus produce.

So take you pick and any problems can be sorted :thumbsup:

Have you ever used FS before? The installers for the trident / VC10 / Comet / 1-11 etc are for FS9, you have to manually install them, If your not sure how, let us know. ;-)

Or at the least, if you do an automated install into FSX you need to move all the folders you find in your FSX/Aircraft folder into the FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes folder.

Hope this helps,

Did you download the panel too? You need that or the aircraft won't show. The "DMFS Shared Files" folder must also go into the simobjects folder otherwise the models won't show.

About 2 thirds of the way down this link is an explaination I did of how to install DM's 1-11 in FSX. The principles are the same for all DM's models...

Hope it helps, but let us know if you get stuck. :)
