Classic British Flight Sim

I've been testing this for Rick over the last few days and he has now allowed me to post screenshots. I moved my testing from FS9 to FSX today so here are today's shots from FSX:-









Both sequences can be explored in full by clicking this address:-

Thanks for looking and thanks Rick for letting me test your Masterpiece :dance:

Nice sequence of shots as usual Peter! Did you manage do a few hours in the Chip or had you moved onto fast jets by then?

If I didn't knew you better Peter, I would think that you suffered from some kind of balance disease, or maybe you brains aren't capable of reversing the picture through your eyeballs... :think:



Nice shots.

Yes, I had a few hours flying instruction on them when they entered service with the RAFVR in 1949...This was as an ATC cadet. Then I joined the RAF in 1951 and that instruction did help. I was also in a syndicate that owned one at Booker in 1970. It was G-APSB and I flew it a few times...Mainly from the back seat when I took a friend up for aerobatics

I recorded seeing G-APSB in August 1970 at Booker. The CAA website has this photo:

Is that how you remember the Chipmunk, Peter?

Then it went to sunny climes (Florida) as N111PR. Registration still current but C of A revoked.

Yes, that is her...didn't know she had gone to Florida though! Thanks for the pic...I'll sent it to Barry Gillingwater in NZ...He suffered some of my aerobatics in her

Hi Ian

I will see if i can knock that one up for the new model using the photoreal texture as a base.

Rick

Great pictures, Peter. I too was an ATC cadet, and the Chipmunk's the only military plane I've ever taken the controls of. Looking forward to this new version immensely.

Hi Guys

no idea if the wings had the reg on lower port & upper starbd but can change easy enough.

Here we go.
Used Tom Everitt's superb bare metal as a base after 2 hours of removing the insignia :crying:
not sure with the photo if there is also a powder blue mid line ?.
Peter will know

to be included in the new pack.

As a note old & other liveries will fit & just need _T added to the filename of the main texture but you no longer need to paint the ailerons & flaps seperately as they are now where they should be on the template.

Regards
Rick

I think you've very probably made someones Christmas Rick

Very nice
