A certain learned Colleague NOT known for his building skills but very
well known for other skills might like your collection of Britannia photos

Alan - the que starts HERE for test pilot of a certain very large very long
range turbine airliner with a fueslage cross section like an "English Oval"
cigarette (showing age here folks) and a tail like a welsh hat - its a project
long over due - but first a word from our sponsors

Oh we are all being soooo devious :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Fair-ey 'nuff!

Leif, drop me a mail and i'll send all the photographs I've got. TBH I've not got the time to work on a Brittannia, but I'd love to see one built.. and if I can help in any way, so be it!

Those sounds were made ages ago for Fs2002 and didn't translate to FS9 particularly well, so don't get excited. I've only ever heard real Brits on film, so it ain't easy to be very accurate :wink: I did update them for my own use a while ago, but felt given my experience of the real thing, a bit fraudulent to release them.

Hi fraser.
yes i noticed they where for fs2002,so did not download them,as i know fs2004 does not like some of the fs2002 sounds that are around,and i decided not to take the chance.
i can always try going through my installed turboprops,to see if one fits better,as it sounds a bit like a kingair at present.
regards alan. :smile:

Hi fraser.
I have alaised the sounds of the brit to samdims tupolev tu-114,and it sounds better than the king air 350,not as high a pitch,still not a brit sound from what i can recall,but for now close enough for me.
regards alan. :smile:

I'd love to see a Britannia too, my dad flew in one way back in the 1950's on the way to the Phillipines.
