I would treat that freeware one with suspicion. If it's the same model then it's most likely been pirated.

I love the Vulcan, edzman if you love them get your paws on a copy of The Vulcan Story by Tim Laming. That'll show you just how accurate the cockpit is 8)

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

Been in a real static Avro (think it was the Vulcan) cockpit at RAF Cosford, and it's cramped as hell:

Wow, great to have a real shot of the Vulcan cockpit!
Looks quite spacious when compared with an EE Lightning! Wink

The co-pilots seat is removed on that shot too, so its a veritable barn in there!  Grin

Indeed. There's nothing about any freeware release of the Vulcan from PSS, and anyone who does get a pirate copy would be cheating PSS and the chances of any of us seeing a real Vulcan flying again. Angry

Is this the Same Vulcan here in the screenies that just got released as freeware?!


Now that I look over this thread, I am sure it is not.  This is by Paul Foster of Phoenix designs.  Also, there is no VC section in the panel.cfg file, nor is there any listing of how to release the drag-chute.
