This post at CBFS may be of interest to some here, but I would suggest great caution in following up the link. No good reason for my suspicion; just that the manner of its presentation set off a few alarms.

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'

Nah the link to avsim.su is fine, I've been using that site a lot the last couple days whilst grabbing Ruskie jobs for my AI. Takes a little getting used to but a really useful site...

And here is that lovely L1011 TriStar from the link taking off out of Gatwick...



I am REALLY glad they included this livery in the package as I flew on Silver Jubilee Rose when I was a kid living in the UK. Great VC, great visual model, great sounds (Including cockpit callouts), smooth animations. An excellent package.

One off those Lockheed's that has really flourished in recent years, we had a few stop in Christchurch, one RAF another a charter airline, Just Flight is currently upgrading there in-house Tristar to the same working level as there Canberra with everything working.

Aawww, pretty!
If I keep it, I will get the fix for the nosewheel animation (it turns the wrong way). Paint by Paul Craig.
