Classic British Flight Sim

This question was asked of me on PPrune today:-

"Peter McLeland,
I just bought MS Flight SimulatorX as a result of seeing your pictures etc, never having had any desire to do simulator work at home previously!

I downloaded the files but the Tridents don't seem to be available, and I'm wondering if that's because Dave Maultby's website refers to FS4 and 9, not X. The file structure for FSX doesn't seem to be quite the same as is described, e.g. there's no "Aircraft" folder but rather a "sim objects/airplanes" one, and I wonder whether that is what is wrong - any thoughts? "

I looked through the thread here about DM's aircraft in FSX but couldn't really find the answer...Is there any definitive procedure to get the Tridents into FSX that I could pass onto the questioner?

Thanks for any reply

Hi Peter,

The latest version of DM's Trident packages come with a readme file that covers the slight changes that need to be made to the file structure and effects. There are also some replacement files included with the panel package to allow their use in FSX.

The versions I'm referring to are the packages ending in _20081209.zip.

HTH,

Rgds,

Colin

Thanks Colin...That is just what I needed

Hi Peter

Let me know if you want to test any models in FSX

Rick
