We have leased three ATR 72-500 type aircraft for the London Hub. Tail numbers N721RB, N722RB, and N723RB. Captain Alger, please create or adjust routes accordingly.

Blacky: I'm looking forward to using the -500. In FSX, the IFDG -300 is a bit squirrely. Don't know if there is another option on the -300 and haven't seen any fixes posted...

Anyone know where we can get our hands on a Mike Stone's ATR 72-500 for FS9. From what I'm reading MIke did a great job on this one. that is a great plane. Mike's site is shut down and the downloads are not available.
Rexbo. The guys at ISDT did some modifications on the 300 and from what I hear it's flying better. I have been using there 500 series and it is flying very well.

Oops, you got me Timber...ISDT it is, not IFDG.

I'll check and see what I can find. I may need to navigate around their site a bit further..

Thanks for the info.

I'll see if Mike's ship is posted anywhere...


Blacky, thanks for the heads up on the option....


Wiggy, stop by the maintenance shop and see me sometime. I think we might need to tweak that fuel control back a bit...looks like she's running a bit too rich Very Happy

Sure looks like fun...but at today's prices, that fuel bill must be eating you alive Very Happy


That guy is dedicated...I hope his entry was intentional...

As an Aussie taxpayer, I can think of no better way to spend my taxes than on RAAF promo sorties (being from Amberley in QLD to Temora in NSW) then dumping the juice and lighting it up!

Who really needs hospitals and schools!

Thankfully for the mantenance guy - his entry into the air intake was intentional - with the fans off!
