Many thanks, yet again Jens.
Stately progression is the nature of this magnificent beast. Or have you managed to fix the Brabazon and make the fsim globe rotate under it?
I can't remember if the last remaining section of the Brabazon fuselage is still on the wall at Old Warden. I remember that the section of hangar where it had been has been re-configured as a shop by Shuttleworth when I visited in August, but don't remember looking up at the wall.
Looking forward to the Singapore and Comet 1, the commercial British classics would be much thinner on the ground without the JBK stable.

Jens, thanks for this magnificently elegant beauty! This "baby" is a joy to fly and suprisingly maneuverable on the ground. Looks like I better tinker with my default Filton AFCAD to add a parking spot for her. It had better be a rather large spot too, carefully placed so those huge wings don't get shorn off by the buildings when I am taxiing and not paying full attention.

Jens,
You may well live to regret this line of thinking!!!
Earls Court would have been twice the size if QANTAS had got hold of a couple of these if we're into might-have-beens.

I've always fancied having Britain's inter-war flying boats in MSFS, and maybe follow some of the old empire routes; Singapore to Penang for instance, or Calcutta to Colombo...that sort of thing.
Terrific work, Jens, very much looking forward to your future creations.
