A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category CFS 3 British Aircraft

Description: ***UPDATED****

CFS3 Spitfire MkVIII and MkVII aircraft Set. (2 downloads in total - Generic to all installs and Aircraft)

The original upload was found to have several errors.

1. There was an error in the new 303 gun file that meant gun sounds could not be heard.

2. During final construction of the virtual cockpit file a small problem in gmax made several of the gauges display incorrect readings in game.

3. It was discovered that the MkVIII had 4 spoke wheels instead of the depicted 3 spoke wheels. this has been fixed.
