Re: Bombers

John, I completely understand and only hope to find the time to learn how to model myself so I can spend some time creating such items. I have found that adding some older FS9 models into FSX using the TacPac module can be quite good fun for the time being. In some cases I have been able to add them...

Re: Most wanted AI poll

I'd love to see some prototype aircraft such as the Vulcan, Victor and Valiant in there original prototype designs. A Kestrel would also be good. i can see the difficulty though as generally most prototypes were quickly altered and the documentation and images might not be available.

Re: Bombers

As a massive fan of the V Bombers I'd love a Vickers Valiant! I already had a play with the AI Traffic around the UK to have Vulcans and Victors all over the place. Not quite realistic I know but what the hell, they look great. I too wish I had the time and talent to model the way I see things being...

Re: RAF Lakenheath for FSX/P3D

Ian, many many thanks for this amazing scenery. The old version worked really well but this is just beyond anything else and even on my slow stuttery system I can enjoy your superb scenery in all its glory. Might just park a helo of some type in the spectators car park and just sit back and watch al...

Re: Skysim Bae Hawk

As with btaylo24 I bought the JF Hawk day one. Finally got in the air a couple of days ago but the air file makes it impossible to fly for any time without losing patience with constantly trying to trim the thing out. Tried to land which I achieved although it wasn't pretty. Hopped into my Skysim Ha...

Re: RAF Lakenheath for FSX/P3D

Would love a Mildenhall to match the Twin Bases package from back in the day. Still great to have two bases next to each other although I would hope and frame-rate issues would be as minimal as with the Twin Bases package. Would be nice if Mildenhall was a tad retro with some SR-71's buzzing around.

Saitek X52 Pro Twitching Rudder

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has got the Saitek X52 Pro joystick/throttle system on their flight sim? I was using the Saitek X52 for a few years until the throttle housing started to crack so I upgraded to the Pro. Had it about 4 months and now the rudder control has totally gone and just sits there...

Just though I'd post a couple of short videos from the Cold War Jets Day at Bruntingthorpe, May 2016. I know we all love the new military aircraft about but deep down inside we love the old stuff even better.

Mark,

Looks stunning. I'm using the default scenery in FSX which I'm happy with as I'm more interested in flying and spotting magnificent AI but what scenery is that?

AI F-84F-50-RE Thunderstreak & F-101C-45-MC Voodoo

Does any know of any AI F-84F-50-RE Thunderstreak & F-101C-45-MC Voodoo models available. I've looked through the available files on the MAIW site and note some F-105s and F-86 but nothing else. Would like to create a 50's retro flightplan for ACG's Twin Bases scenery rather than the A-10's and ...

Re: Upgrading from Windows 7 to Window 10 and the impact to FS9

Do I even consider upgrading to Windows 10 as I using FSX!!!! Its taken me months of tweaking to get a nice stable platform for FSX using Windows 8 and now 8.1. I've disable the automatic update reminder as I feel Windows 10 might kill FSX or at best make it as jumpy and crashy as without the tweaki...

Re: MAIW and P3d V3

Looks like I need to update the old dog of a laptop, install a fresh FSX and then think about P3D. Thank goodness I got a nice redundancy payout this month although the other half might not be too happy with a few hundred quid being spent on a flight sim appropriate PC!!!!!!
