FSX Bristol Britannia
By Jens B. Kristensen, april 2009.

Version 1.0

This is an all-new model of the Bristol Britannia. The package contains several variants:

Britannia 310 of BOAC, Canadian Pacific, Cubana and British Eagle.
Britannia C.1 of the RAF
Britannia 102 of BOAC, BKS and Britannia Airways

This package is for FSX only, FS2004 users should download Brt_V10.zip instead.

For more information about the aircraft, see the pdf document installed in the \Documentation folder.

*To install for Flight Simulator X:

Run the included setup_fsx program.

The model requires FSX Gold, FSX Service Pack 2, or the Acceleration expansion pack to display 100% correctly. It will work with earlier variants of FSX as well.

I hope it also works with the 'DirectX 10 preview' option in Windows Vista, but I have not been able to check this.

Model, panel, virtual cockpit and textures by Jens B. Kristensen, made with FSDS 3.5.1, FS Panel Studio, Paint Shop Pro and DXTbmp.

Sounds:

The sounds are aliased to turboprop aircraft included with Flight Simulator.

Gauges:

Most gauges are by myself but with much inspiration from standard gauges by Microsoft.

The ILS indicator is based on xml code by Saviero Maurri (Vickers Varsity panel), bitmaps by me.

A number of gauges (mostly switches) are, with permission from Tom Gibson, www.calclassic.com, based on work by Tom himself, Kevin Trinkle, Ernie Kennedy and Ken 'Mitch' Mitchell. I have used complete gauges from them (cowl flap switches), or used the bitmaps from their c-style gauges and made xml-versions of them.

Finally, a big 'thank you' to Hans-Joerg Naegele, who gave me permission to use gauges from his Lockheed 049 Constellation panel (VNConnie049.cab), directly or modified.

Magneto switches and starter buttons are based on public domain gauges by Mike 'Moparmike' Wagner, converted to xml by me.

Good luck flying the Britannia!
