Phantoms on the way - including the Spey engined ones

I don’t have Facebook, but a kind soul on the flightsimulator forum got me the info below.

I don’t know much about the DC Designs stuff, but I’ve heard a couple of folk say good things about the Harrier, and I’m pleased that someone is making the RR engined variants for MSFS…

I can never make up my mind about the Phantom whether I like it enough to buy it. X-Plane have it as a default but according to Austin Meyers he had been in conversation with a flying instructor who operated phantoms and the default version settings were changed so that it flew as near to the real phantom, to date, I have not tried it out!! Why? I

I suppose it is because not all switches work so to me 'That is Not Real' though seriously, the model in X-Plane 12 graphically, should be improved before I slide into the cockpit.

If the cockpit looks like the real thing then yes, I might well have one but one military aircraft I would buy is the Jet Provost, now only if Just Flight would consider that!!

Don’t get me wrong, I’d sooner have a Buccaneer, or Jag, but anything thats from that period and British is good to have, so the fact thst he’s not just doing the E variant is great. I find that with fast jets, its less important to have all of the buttons working, as their a lot of fun to fly about a low level. Thats why I like the Hunter so much. JF’s Hawk is really good, but I rarely use all the functions.

With you on that Ben
