Classic British Flight Sim

...to start learning a new type:-

One Boeing I really like

I have the CS model but it's never got my juices flowing I'm afraid. It was in a sale so who cares It's a nice model and no mistakin though a bit heavy on frames for me. Anything frame-hungry gets the file 13 treatment ;-)

Well I've only done the one quick visual flight and it was a bit like a fighter circuit and some of it was not yet switched on. However, I liked the feel of it and I've just printed the manuals and a tutorial...So it is back to work!





















:flying:

I've always liked the 757......very elegant.

Has the odd proportion of something developed to the extreme as this was from the 727 but in this case it works

Well Trev,

in real life I got my wings on the North American Harvard and from then (1952) till I retired from British Airways (1986) I only flew British aircraft. The last conversion course that I was offered in British Airways was the B757, but the rather wonderful early retirement deal that they offered at the same time, was more attractive and I took it. So, you might say I'm starting my 757 conversion course 23 years after I was offered it

Wonderful screen shots Peter, those seats look a damned site more comfortable that umm...errrr....some British ones!

Just out of interest, had you not taken early retirement when you did how many more years flying would you have had before your official retirement?

Kind regards
Nigel.
