Classic British Flight Sim

Is there not one operating out of Boscombe?

Since that photo of G-DOSC (and the RAF serialled ones have changed to G-DOSA and G-DOSB) , they have moved to Brize Norton but that may not be current situation

Yes, Paul - I bought it some time ago, along with the DA-40 Diamond Star, before they started giving away most of their FSX products for nought. I like them both, but to be honest, the Star does grind on my patience a bit, whereas the Twin Star is far nippier. They both have glass cockpits, based on the G1000.

They actually had three versions in the package. This one, a diesel version (!) and an unmanned UAV one, too. I have never tried the UAV sofar, I usually just delete that folder after the install. I'll give it a try in P3Dv2, as that's where I've installed all my Iris stuff this time around. I think I have just about everything they've produced for FSX, thanks to their Christmas sales.

Paul - I just found some more info, if you are interested, on the Iris model:

The second would be the updated 'Aviator Series' version - yet as you say, the product isn't listed on their Aviator Series page - so I'm wondering if it's been put on the ever growing freeware list? I'll try and find out.

PS - Nope - it's £18.69 LINKY which isn't bad, imo.

This type of aircraft has been reported in the aeronautical press as having been used by the RAF on undisclosed duties over Afghanistan within the last eighteen months.
