Hello Calypsos:

I found this other post under "OOPS" in the forum....

quote="Sav M"]Hi Kev,

All is not lost.

The DH.88 panel stuff is on Disc 1.

Just open 'MSGAME1.CAB' with winzip or whatever, and look for 'comet_background.bmp', then get 'Dehavilland_Comet.cab', and finally the 'panel.cfg', there are quite a few of these, but if you have a look at the 'paths' tab of winzip you can see which one is pointing to the DeHavilland comet folder. It's 6,043KB's in size.

Hope this helps.

I tried to zip the Comet folders. It is 6MB plus. It will take me several hours to attach it to an e-mail. If the above suggestion doesn't work, maybe I can send it in pieces.

Thanks Lee,
I'll give a go, not sure where it went! I am very careful about deleting default stuff! It is this interest in the air race that made me want to try her out!

I would definetly be up for this - in a Comet.

Ok, i'm warming to the idea of building a 247. Assuming a few other aircraft become available(ie DC-2), a race could be done.
