[Saracenman]

you can get Santa's sleigh for FSX

gonna give the boat a try though

sm

[Mayfly]

I think formation with santas sleighs nearer the time is a must

[Prometheus]

I downloaded the Santa Sleigh last week lol

[Mayfly]

has anyone downloaded the Folland Gnat..........

I have installed it but have no gauges despite them showing in the gauges folder

[Wedgy]

Can't seem to find it, where did you download it from MF?

[Mayfly]

here you go

[Wedgy]

Will take a look

[Wedgy]

Lovely little aircraft

Unfortunately, nothing can be done. All the gauges are pre FS2004 and dont work with FSX. Ive tried searching for updated gauges, but no luck

[Mayfly]

thanks Wedgy at least I know its not me - thought / hoped it would work as it in the FSX compatable download section

[Wedgy]

Well, it does work for me .... in F11 view. Its just you and SM who are obsessed with flying by gauges

[Mayfly]

I did fly it, lovely a/c , but must confess to liking my guages I'm a bit lost without my rate of climb

[Saracenman]

Well, it does work for me .... in F11 view. Its just you and SM who are obsessed with flying by gauges

I own FS2004 (because my laptop won't agree with FSX ) but these are some of the goodies that I've downloaded and that I own.

Payware

Precision Manuals 747-400
Precision Manuals 737NG
LevelD 767-300
Just Flight A340-500/600
Cloud9 LAX
UK2000 Heathrow
SSTIM Concorde - Stunning aircraft in amazing detail, which in turn makes it an incredibly difficult plane to fly!


Freeware
Project Opensky 777-200/ER
Project Opensky 757-200
Project Opensky CRJ700
Project Opensky Embraer ERJ 145
Project Opensky A340-200/300
Project Opensky A330-200/300
Project Airbus A319, A320

As you can tell, lots of Project Opensky stuff. I think, in terms of freeware modern aircraft, you can't get any better than what these guys are producing. I supplement these planes with sounds by Devyn Silverstein. If you want some realistic sounding GE90's, Trent 800's or Pratt and Whitney 4000's to go along with your 777's, his work is fantastic, and best of all free!

Precision Manuals for payware are great too, brilliant cockpit detail, fully functioning FMC's with SID/STAR's. Once you've learnt how to fly them, it's very rewarding. Nothing like planting a 747-400 on the tarmac after an eight-hour flight

My new toys

This is the MAAM-Sim DC3. Awesome plane, beautifully made



And the Kittyhawk 737-200 at Heathrow with the new terminal in the background

[Saracenman]

ah, the good old days when 737s sounded like real aircraft!

love the DC3 too

sm

I make sure to download all the sound files for these planes - with their JT8D-7's roaring they sound brilliant

I actually spent a week doing work experience with British Airways' technical department, I helped with a complete overhaul for a 737-200 that was being sold to a middle eastern airline.

I got to sit in the captains seat of a DC10 and a Boeing 747 too!

It was amazing.

[Mayfly]

DT loved flying the DC3 on BBMF - said it was a beautiful a/c to fly
