Bit too far off for a realistic release date at the moment. We are beginning the beta testing phase now, so hopefully it should be ready for release in Q4 2011.

Should make a nice Christmas present then.

Hi all,

Here are some preview pics of our upcoming Vickers Viscount (FSX only):

Thanks for looking. Any feedback welcome!

Martyn

Martyn How about giving your passengers some seatbelts...???

 

[Roger]

You know what Stan, I reckon that somewhere down the line in the beta testing this will be rectified

Will the finished package cover the 700 and 800 series or just one??
Quality is looking excellent, and I have fond memories of this aircraft.

Please, add a VASP repaint! :salute:

The model is an 800 series. The Viscount had numerous variations due to the multitude of options that could be ordered by the customer. SO paints supplied will be as close as we can get to the originals. Repainters can do what they like of course!

This model has many interesting little additions like "true" trimtab operation and many bespoke coded animations for the cockpit. We're also at work on a "proper" representation of the Smiths type gyropilot in 3D for the VC. So far there have only been 2D versions of this instrument.

I too grew up with Viscounts (well actually DC3s and then Viscounts) So you can imagine my pleasure when we were asked by the JF boys to do one.

Well Baz,
I'm not much of an airliner fan but this is definately on my buy list!
Looks fabulous:ernae:

For those not too familiar with the Viscount (a truly classic aircraft), check out this website for info and ideas on re-paints when the time comes! One of the last UK operators was Richard Branson's Virgin!

The guys at the Viscount site have been testing for us/JF. Extremely well-versed in all things Viscount.
