Classic British Flight Sim

What would be cool is to have a small setup in the rear of the aircraft with DM's trident on it

*edit* In fact it could play one of Peters flights with his recorder module on loop

Sounds like a good idea Jonsey. Would be good if Peter could do presentations on the open day on the actual operation of the aircraft via the simulator. Although, that may be cheeky to ask.

Interesting idea for the "Grand Opening" day. Longer term, G-ARPV the procedures trainer is going to be converted in to a complete cockpit sim....

Any ideas on dates yet? Think

Unfortunately we can't say quite yet, but expect an announcement soon...

Maybe you could take a copy of a photograph up with you whilst you were either flying the Trident or just sat in the 'office' then Toby could add it to the display at the rear of the aircraft...........

I'm sure Neil would love another photo to add to the gallery at the rear. It all adds to the facinating display he has set up in the back...

Can't wait. I have heard somewhere that there is a Trident cockpit in one of Manchester hangars. Does anybody know if this is true?

There's one in the Manchester Museum of Science & Industry....

No truth in that although there are or at least were, two incomplete RJX noses, an RJX centre fuse section, RJX wings and tailplane, all at the primered only stage, abolsutely no fittings, just empty (in some cases incomplete) shells. These are going (or have already gone) to MSI previously mentioned by Steve.

That clears that up, thanks.

Its amazing how psychic some people are. Posted just today by Neil, heres the pics of the parts leaving MAN for the MSI:

Two cockpit sections is a bit greedy .... wonder if they'll let be have the one in two pieces...
