Looking forward to these Garry.... well specifically the Brit, but I'll settle for the 44 in the mean time ;-)

Hi Ben
The Brits will come off the back of the CL-44...but sadly not until my current hold up is sorted
The reason for this is the CL-44 being bigger and having some things the Britannias did not have means for texture mapping and general modelling it's easier to remove than to add to.
Once I have one all sorted the others should follow in due course with only the Guppy needing major alterations.
Sub panel pics...........Fraser is a real genius at this sort of thing and an unsung hero working hard behind the scenes

Hopefully but it's difficult to find accurate sound bite under all conditions.
Most vids do not reproduced sound correctly and a lot of older ones are dubbed with generic sound.
In the air they sounded similar to a Vanguards but more like a Belfast
On the ground they sounded nothing at all like a Vanguard.
An even bigger problem with the Britannia

Re: Tyne Powered Edsel
Those panel screenshots look really, really good! A lot of work appears to have been done! (Since your last update)
Still cant wait!
EDIT: Is the INS functional? *thinks to self: Heck this aircraft is advanced; INS in a prop-jet!*

Hi Craig
Everthing works but Fraser would need to make comments on the systems as they're not something I'm familiar with.
Not sure what you mean about the propjet comment
as this was an aeroplane built as an inter-continental transport. and was in service until a few years ago.
They could, and did fly a lot further than the contempory Jet airliners.....these and other types like the Britannia were the long range boys in those days
The type of routes flown determine the equipment needed not the engine type

HB-IEN the Transvalair 44 had double Litton 51s in it -- back then (and NOW I guess) there were extremly large junks of Africa and the Far East that had no nav aids and no atc -- all done with position reports in the blind. - IAS sent IEN to Katmandu with four Alouettes in the back (I understand that the Nepalese still use the Alouette. But from Muscat east there was nothing back then so INS was an essential unless like the
Britannia you carried a Nav.
