Now this is one that I like - maybe because it's more my era (actually I'm a bit younger but it was the sort of aircraft we saw in books when I was a young whippersnapper!
A couple of quick snaps and a virtual tour link for you to enjoy:
It was a bit of a rush to get this one done for you!!
Meteor virtual tour.... and for once I beat Ian to the announcement!!

Good to see I'm not alone in my susceptibility to temptation where these things are concerned!

Flying and screening it now Greg .
I have to be honest , I cant comment on the dynamics , as I've never flown one , and I doubt anyone on this forum has .... so that becomes incidental.
From a visual point of view, I was a little disappointed .
As I've said before , I love JF , and god knows they have a good part of my bank account ...but this is (again) a little cartoonish , the textures just seem.... flat .
I'm sure I will grow to love it .... but in the meantime, I'm a little underwhelmed .
