Classic British Flight Sim

The onions were in a pile, out of shot

Kevin.. how's about being told to get the legs for the bosuns chair? Pipes (over the tannoy system) for non-existent crew members were a giggle too.. RO Tate, LEM O'Nade, MEM Brane, Seaman Stains!! Laugh.. I nearly joined the navy!! Oh.. hang on.. I DID

Seaman Stains, who was of course, most definitely not part of the crew of the Black Pig along with Roger the Cabin Boy

Thanks for the snopes link, Angus. Thirty minutes after reading it and I'm still giggling.

Remember, Charles de Gaulle is a French ship, you get two daily rations of Wine!

When I was in Paris for the Paris Air Show in the seventies we finished work a bit later than usual and as we parked our vehicles at the Militaire Ecole we went into their canteen for dinner and at the end of the servery there were a selection of small bottles of red wine which we did not have to pay for, after a couple of those we sort of managed to stagger back to the hotel sobered up a bit before hitting the Champs-Elysees night life.

Hell no.. if its a ship.. it's fair game

As it happens.. the RFN ships are very well made and fair on frame rates too. Of course, I don't land on or even see them often but they're 'must have's' in any sea-going collection I've also got Russian, loads of American, Spanish, Japanese.. the list goes on. If its a ship.. I'll have it

Notwithstanding the Flying Stations Victorious and RFN Clemenceau/Foch and CDG.. you might want to look at Javier Fernandez USS Nimitz/Ike. Look for uss_nimitz_ike_version2.zip at Flightsim.com . This is a monster.. a yardstick by which all other models are judged You'll need AICarriers to see it as with all the others

Cheers Dave, when I finally get round to it I may end up flying carrier based more than land-based airports, trouble is being retired.....I don't have much spare time to play with!
