Nice Airbus model and a good paint job. The bluish one is certainly an improvement over the real Court liveries which were :sicky: IMHO. Thankfully I didnt have to live through the 1970s...a decade that taste forgot! :lol:

I think the blue one looks quite nice (for an Airbus), apart from the logo on the tail being cut off.

What is the difference between this and an airliner that has never flown (Three-Eleven), or a fictitious airfield?
Court Line actually existed and now, as of then I believe they would have been very bold with regard to their colour schemes.
Virtual flying is very subjective and it should not be for one 'simmer' to exert authority over what appears on another's PC.
Congratulations, Court Line Flyer with your vision of what Courtline may have looked like and the aircraft they might have flown.

Long may Flight Simulation bring you pleasure, in whatever form you choose.

True Kevin

But this site is for Classic British Aircraft and the original thread was in the section for support of Classic British aircraft which is why it got moved to the gallery as it is a picture showcase.


I know there is a lot of fiction in FS and fine but this is a site for real stuff.

The Three Eleven was real if not built and that how is was to be......it was a part of British aviation history.

Court line as presented here is pure fiction as Court line was never going to adopt that livery or operate those aeroplanes...so there is a difference.

The Court thread was moved not deleted so I can't see what the problem is.

Cheers Garry

I have no problem, with whatever people wish to add to their own Flightsim experience.
I was just trying to highlight the different reception on this forum, between this and for example 'Mcleland Field' (fictitious and therefore not on my PC), which was greeted with enthusiasm when released.
This is by no way a criticism of Peter's excellent work, just an example of how different concepts are treated.

I wasn't deciding what to be on a fellow simmers machine, I was merely taking the pi$$ obviously misunderstood, but not by the original poster...

No probs Kevin......it a good question and there is no harm in airing it.

Like the Court..... Peters field is a picture showcase and that's fine in the galley.

We do try to accommodate wide spectrum's of members interest up to a point.

The Site though has a particular aim and so some things get moved from the top section especially.

These thing are individuals personal interest and it is a pleasure to see them...in the correct section.

Not a Guiness, nor is it virtual. But I do have a 'Classic British Ale' before me as I type :smile: .
