Skysim Vixen

[Brian Franklin]

Quite right Trev, although it wan't intentional on my part, the early releases will indeed have a distinctly British flavour (not flavor)!

To answer the question about package sizes, once installed the Vixen will occupy a hefty 546MB but thankfully the installer package brings that down to a 47Mb download. Been actually flying her myself lately seeking out last bugs and omissions and doing sorties from the Ark. Having been RAF myself I couldn't see why the FAA guys were getting so excited about naval aviation but once you tried it (simulated obviously) the penny drops, having a ball - might just keep this all to myself!

Joking joking honest...

Looks to be the final big thing there before the museum closes. Pity I've got to work!

Bother, I am in the UK (about an hour away from there) until the 12th :@ , I wonder if they have heard that the product is now being released on the 10th!

Err no LOL, Brian asked me to do some FPS checks so l picked Heathrow with full scenery and AI settings, bumbled around on the ground a bit and then saw this Airbus taking off, so l gave chase , followed him south and formed up over the channel at 30K.

Actually l had a job keeping up, I knew these airliners these days were fast ( A320 0.82 Mach ) and the Sea Vixen ( 0.91 Mach ) only just had the edge, incredible to think that tube liners these days are almost as fast as fighters from the 50's !.

How true that is Michael Had a similar scare a few weeks ago. Was fiddling around with AI and thought I'd have a bit of sport with Concorde (I was in the Alpha TSR2). I let him takeoff first and my intention was to follow him for about 30mins to see his routing. THIRTY MINUTES.. err, he'd lost me well before then!
