Nice one Ian - a slow day for you on the flying front today then? tongue.gif I remember that episode well - one of my favs. I think I was 7 or 8 when I first saw it: amazing how it's stuck after 35+ years! laugh.gif

Well done Ian !! Happy to see you saved the Boeing ( wouldnt have mattered if it was an ARBUST as you call them laugh.gif )
Just like the nuclear powered "Fireflash" on the TV series, she was well worth saving.
Ive got TB1, TB2, and Fireflash for the sim !!

Thunderbirds was awesome, love the fact all the vehicles, airplanes etc were created from airfix model kits that were mixed and matched... I had the Thunderbirds Tin DVD set too, but an ex stole it when we split up...

One place is here..............

http://www.aiai.ed.ac.uk/~bat/GA/ga-fs.html

I have seen some elswhere in the past, but i for the life of me, i cant remember where else it was ive seen them..........
Ive picked up the odd Sci-Fi Flightsim Model over the years from the the mainstream sights like Flightsim, Avsim, Simviation etc, as well
as a few obscure sites that i should have bookmarked, and now cant remember.
