I was poking around on flightsim.com today and came across this. A brand new native FSX Fokker F27-500 by Benoit Gaurant. Fantastic!! Being built by Benoit Gaurant I knew this would be wonderful. :) This is definitely payware quality. The documentation consists of a 63 page PDF. 63 pages!! :-O Sorry to say that the cockpit voice recorder is inop on this model. I guess you can't have everything. :lol: Thank you so much Benoit for this beautiful aircraft.

*-) Good question. Page 16 of the manual. Not sure if this answers your question, Pete. :dunno:

She looks very nice indeed. Was Fraser involved in this panel?

Apparently not. There's no mention of Fraser in the documentation.

No, nothing to do with me :lol:

But by coincidence, I made a new Air France Poste 500F panel at the beginning of the year, not identical but very similar layout. Not for public release, but I’ve enjoyed a good 400 hours night flying on it.

What is it they say about buses…

Cheers
