Help wanted - need aircraft spotters!

[simi_av8r 0]

Hi all, following my complete format and re-install after a HDD corruption, i've now lost the following aircraft and cant for the life of me remember where i originally got them from :doh

If you know of a freeware (or if not available payware) model available, then please post the link!

if preferable, panel and sounds packed within the aircraft would be a bonus, but not a necessity. Also, i remember that all had RAF colour schemes as default.

Thanks,

Simi

the aircraft are :

Victor K2 - Handley Page

Valiant - Vickers

Buccaneer - Blackburn

Canberra - English Electric

Hunter - Hawker Siddeley

Jaguar - Sepcat

Meteor - Gloster

Javelin - Gloster

Gnat - Folland

Jet Provost - BAC

TSR 2 - BAC

Vampire - De Havilland

Venom - De Havilland

Scimitar - Supermarine

Sabre - Canadair

Phantom - McDonnel Douglas

Swift - Supermarine

Sea Vixen - De Havilland

Sea-Hawk - Hawker

EDIT: yes, i know, they're all Cold-War era aircraft... what can i say, i love a bit of heritage!

I'm too tired right now to go hunting for the freeware ones of many of those (although i do know of some of them) but well over 75% of them are avalable as payware from Alphasim...

If you check out thier freeware section too you might find some of the stff you are looking for, although you may then need to go panel hunting.

hi craig, i've actually been and got a few of the examples from AlphaSim and, it has to be said, although the exterior quality is good, the less than poor FDE's and lack of panels/sounds for their models really does ruin the experience!

i'm still on the looo kout for the full list above.

You may also want to seach through some of Kazunori Ito's stuff. Quite a few of them (icluding the TSr2 and Phantom) are there...although they have inflatable control surfaces.

hi craig,

:mrhappy:

oops, my bad. Sorry Fred. was speaking to a colleague here called craig when typing!

as for the list, many thanks! i'll get searching for those you've suggested. I'll be looking out for updates if anybody else can help.

Thanks again Fred!

right then, with thanks from Fred here and a few of the [sacrcasm]lovely[/sarcasm] people over at Sim-Outhouse and AVSim i've managed to track down those listed above - so thanks v. much Fred! :wink: :sleep: :mrhappy:

Can anybody suggest some that might be missing...? I know for example that the Avro Arrow wasnt mentioned in my previous list - i've now got this from FlightSim.com - but can anybody suggest other British Post-WW2/Cold War jets please... and the SEPCAT Jag will probably be the youngest on the list, so nothing that proceeded this please?
