There are a couple of different models available here.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I believe the Lancaster "simulator" featured in the TV programme is actually based on Just Flight's "Dam Busters" addon for CFS2/FS2002. The scenery & panel look very much like standard FS2002 although the software might well be specially modified. I don't usually advocate payware but I've heard nothing but good reports on it. Personally, I think it would suit CFS2 much better. If you're interested it can be purchased here. http://www.justflight.com/pages/Terminal%202/products.asp?cat=e&p=10326&a=d

I agree, if you want good Lancs spend £20 on the Dambuster add on - I NEVER buy/bought payware until I got this. Just to let you know, you get 1 standard Lanc B1, 2 Dams raid Lancs, 1 Tallboy (Tirpitz raid) Lanc and a later Grand Slam carrying Lanc, plus a Wellington and Mossie. It's worth it, the panels, sound and visual models are great - treat yourself... Wink

once again, thanks for all the advice. The one I downloaded seems to have the wrong Cockpit gauges,dials, levers etc on it. I would have liked to have known how to drop the 'Bomb'.
I think I will donate some of this months pay cheque to this good cause.
Cheers
Marshall.
