Ian,
Yes, since downloading this one I have becoem rather interested in it and started reading up. Seems the "M" variant first flew around 1982 and includes much newer high bypass turbofans (hence the larger nacelle diameter), with all the usual benefits. I think it also has upgraded avionics and systems.
John,
Downloaded and installeded the beta, and all I can say is "wow". This has got to be one of the best aircraft I have installed right now. On account of the panel not being finished yet, I have been able to fly it too
Simply beautiful... but where can I get that Aeroflot paint job you have there?

Thanks for sharing the link John. Just tried the beta model and it looks wonderful. Can't wait for the finished model. Those folks really know how to put together a great model!

Yes. Alias to the Tu-154b2 sounds.

Finally, just as I ordered a new graphics card on Friday, I have managed to get anti aliasing working on my ATI card, two years after I originally bought it
I made a video clip of an approach to Salzburg (SZG / LOWS) in the Aeroflot Tu-154M on a wintry evening. [Right] click the picture to download it.

Hi John
I have had this one the back burner for a little while.
but I think it's time to try them out.
you all have posted enough alluring tidbits to entice me
Question John
was wondering about in what year do you remember
your first FS experience.
Mine was on a comador 64 computer color
I had a 10" moniter
and if I remember I could only fly a 747?...
It was about 88 or 89
..
sadly I missed a lot over the years
untill only a year or so ago did I start to understand the
possabliity of adding files.(my time was focused in other directions)
But... since finding CBFS ,my FS experience has exploded
with realizim
In all truth............many in this forum is mostly to Blame.
but I won't hold it against em
