Perfect for the forthcoming Iris Vulcan addon and the Alphasim T-34C or even the CS Hercules. Now all we need is for a talented mission designer (Gera?) to create some authentic missions. :friday:

Now all we need is a decent addon for Ascension island

BTW if you fancy a realy good read on the Black Buck missions try this

I've been using it for the last 8-12 months or so....the mesh/landclass by Brian Jamieson is a seperate download from Avsim. Unfortunately I don't have any screenshots at the moment (I haven't run FSX since xmas:faint:) but there are some available at the original link. The devs have done a great job on this.:ernae:

...I can't read it though......


Google translates as such...


FSX scenery of the Falkland Islands - Author: Paul Contouris "Conto"

Contains a wealth of historical documentation about the conflict in folder "docs" - To install carefully read the file "Readme.doc." Note : You must download before the site of Brian Jamieson, containing costs and landclass, and can be found in www.avsim.com as falklands.zip "or does not work AVSIM can also download this one LINK (balls .... Falklands the Malvinas are Argentine)

that last bit is a little OTT though. Makes me wonder what the 'wealth of historical' info contains. Other interesting reading might be the History of the Islands.
